Disability Rights

Thu Jun 21, 2012 6:03 pm

Apparently BT has blocked access to Disability Rights Website BlackTriangle at the request of ATOS.
ATOS are the private company who hold "medical" assessments for claimants of ESA and DLA on behalf of DWP and who have in some cases found people fit to work and stopped their benefits only for them to have died days or weeks later !!!
And to cap it all the CEO of ATOS Thierry Breton has been awarded a bonus of £1 Million bringing his total income for last year to £1.9 Million.
Would this money not be better spent on helping the disabled ? :ayatollah:
