My experience of being on the autistic spectrum is difficulty telling when you've hurt or been callous to someone leading to panic and feeling really poo poo when you realise you inadvertently have. Without further evidence, I'm pretty sure May is just a bad person.

Tsaedje posted:This is literally every capability for work assessment. After years of appeals I eventually got some compensation out of them for lying and removing all my benefits and then trying to cover up the lie, including to my MP. Didn't really make up for the months I was living on £5 a week. Oh gently caress yes, by their own admission the DWP has 43 separate pieces of medical evidence (including the leading UK expert on her condition) to show my wife is as ill as she claims to be yet they still outright lied on her PIP assessment. By contrast the ESA assessment, carried out by an actual doctor, didn't contest any of it in spite of using the same assessment criteria.

Jedit posted:This. A tower block full of working class people just burned down with unknown loss of life because a bunch of Tory voting rich cunts didn't want their view spoiled. Said rich cunts got the Tory landlords to petition the Tory council to approve dangerous plans that were implemented by a cowboy company who even if they didn't slip a brown envelope under the table, cared more about their shareholders than the dead. The Tory landlords then for years repeatedly ignored warnings from their tenants that said plans put them massively at risk of exactly the disaster that happened. This does rely on this actually getting out, of course.

return0 posted:I am seeing a lot more posts on Facebook from my friends who don't usually post politics stuff recently, and the tone is getting angrier. Even more so since yesterday. yeah...it's hard to know for sure, as we're all in social media bubbles, but it does feel like a tipping point is rapidly approaching. I suspect that we may see a genuine explosion of public rage once the true casualty figures become known.

Remember that neurodevelopmental disorders are independent of morality. It's quite possible to be both autistic and a complete rear end in a top hat.

Darth Walrus posted:We just had a BBC clip of Corbyn descending on Kensington like the messiah, promising to get the truth out, and the current Labour MP may well be the angriest person on the planet right now. I hope so, but the beeb at least is still talking about May doing a Strong enquiry that might lead to a Stable resolution and vague feel-good "hey look at this kid who helped out!" type stuff. I'm not going to get too optimistic until I see on evening news that there's links to either the tory council or the company that did the work. To be honest it needs to be about the council's fuckup specifically since otherwise this turns into May's "NO PLACE TO HIDE FOR BIG BUSINESS now let's lower corporation tax some more" speech again.

spectralent posted:This does rely on this actually getting out, of course. If the death toll's in the triple digits, I don't think a dragged out government inquiry saying "well they didn't technically break the rules that we set and could change at any time" is going to hack it. There might not be as many scalps as we'd like, though.

kanonvandekempen posted:I find that completely baffling, like I literally don't understand how this can happen in a modern country. In Belgium, where I live now, the doctor has the final word, period. I have a colleague who has been sick since january 2016, we're not really aware of what she has or if she's ever coming back, but a doctor affirms every 3 months that she has a valid reason for not working and so be it. She receives 80% of her wage every month. If we thought something dodgy was going on we could ask for another doctor to go check up on her but that's it. Forcing people to do a job they can barely do and don't want to do is a one-way ticket to a burn-out - but luckily, burn-outs are probably included in this scheme so they'll just ask you 'well, what can you do with a burn-out?' and go from there.

By contrast the ESA assessment, carried out by an actual doctor, didn't contest any of it in spite of using the same assessment criteria. I am convinced if they'd been truthful and processed my claim correctly I would have been well enough to work within a few months. As it was, the stress of the situation prolonged my mental health issues and ruined my physical health, so on top of the compensation I was given, they ended up paying out more in out of work benefits. Oh, and the "medical professional" who performed my mental health assessment was a newly qualified physiotherapist who'd been on a couple of days mental health training, no exaggeration.

I disagree with your last point though. It takes a very, very special person to be as much of a oval office as you are. e: god drat I love how quickly this thread jumps on shitheads
