Day
and daily vulnerable people are dying after being assessed as fit to
look for work, and having their disability benefit cut by ATOS. This
vicious penny-pinching scheme devised by Ian Duncan Smith continues
to cause anxiety, stress and trauma and in a number of cases, death
to some of the most vulnerable in our society. Despite this, our
babbling brook of bullshit, the mainstream media, keeps very quiet on
this matter. Thankfully people across the country are taking action
to support and show solidarity with all those in the firing line of
this brutal ideological attack by our millionaire lords and masters.
The
group, Glasgow Against ATOS, has been holding a monthly pickets on the
last Friday of the month, outside the doors of the Glasgow offices of
ATOS. This Friday, in spite of the dreadful weather, saw a very
colourful and imaginative group once again show their support for
those vulnerable people being victimised and to show their anger and
disgust at this attempt at a cull on the working class.
These figures are from Black Triangle Campaign, and though out of date give an indication of the devastation and misery caused by this unjust, brutal attack on the vulnerable in our communities.
Number of deaths for Jan. to Nov. 2011 = 10,600 - supplied by DWP via Atos from page 6 of following pdfTHIS BREAKS DOWN THUS:Those with Assessment not complete 2,200 (50.6 per week)Those in Work Related Activity Group 1,300 (29.9 per week)Those in Support Group 7,100 (153.6 per week)Total number of deaths 10,600 (to nearest 100)Jan to Nov inclusive is 11 months = 47.5 weeks10,600 deaths divided by 47.5 weeks = 223.2 deaths per weekTotal approximation in EACH group is 223.2 divide by 3Approximation of deaths in each of 3 groups = 74.4 per week1. It’s important to know how 73 (74.4) was sourced, and2. That this number is an average within 3 different groups and3. That the overall number of deaths is 223.3 per week
