Awesome! Plus backpayments?

It was my PIP appeal yesterday (almost a year to the day after my original claim). I got the judgement in the post today. Although I was awarded less than I'd hoped - at least I got an award. Fuck you! ATOS and a double FUCK YOU! to Iain Duncan Smith.

UK prouctivity has been for shit since long before ATOS assesments and ESA. Plus all the other obvious problems with this idiotic statement.

...end of October which I cancelled and requested a Home Assessment as I had a severe case of Bronchitis at the time. Surprisingly IAS (Formerly Atos) offered The Home Assessment which took place first week of November. Received decision today Standard Care and Standard Mobility which is all...

...than driving or taking public transport that has to be agreed in advance or they may not pay. You should have got a leaflet with your appointment letter which I think mentions this? Can dig mine out if not, it was from the same service (the ex-ATOS lot, whatever they're calling themselves now).

...Do you have to tell them in advance that you want to claim for travel? And can I claim for the rest of it too? Never occurred to me. The Atos guy I spoke to was as helpful as he could be, and apologetic that I'd been given the impression the assessment was somewhere else. He said they'd be...

...(At first I thought it was a tribual date, because it was from Independent Assessment Services who I'd never heard of. But it turns out that's Atos's new name (cos Atos has now got such a bad rep I guess). So from this I'm guessing I have successfully appealed :confused: !! Or the appeal was...

...interview on Radio 4 this lunch hour. I didn't catch the start of it, so not sure what programme or the exact time but about 12.15 ish - an ex Atos assesssor was saying what he thought about the system. One of the reasons he resigned was he said they routinely overbooked appointments by...

I am referring to how "liberation" is generally perceived by ID politckers today, in 2017. One of those words that has become somewhat stripped of its meaning over the years. I never said that. On the contrary, I acknowledge that the rights of oppressed groups need to be fought for in the here...

...but then remain utterly silent when labour councils like haringey and Lewisham sell off public housing? When it was under labour rule that atos work capability assessments were established (and predecessor the benefits integrity project of 98.) When it was the lp that were the flag bearer of...

...is ruthlessly trying the force people off sickness/disability benefits by a cruel system of reassessments - at a profit to private companies ATOS and Maximus and at much cost to the tax payer. Our 'welfare' budget overwhelmingly goes into proping up proftable companies who pay minimum wage...

...Have managed rebook again, eventually (after half an hour on hold with the DWP because the keyworker calling didn't know she needed to phone Atos!), for the 25th. I didn't think I was allowed to rebook a second time - maybe they just saw the most recent rearranged apt and didn't notice that...

...so you can use it to book cross-European tickets? Gives more options than either Deutsche Bahn or SNCF in my experience. I just hope they keep the site in the same shape (ok I could probably swallow a €1 booking fee). The user touting redspottedhanky - shame on you given they are owned by ATOS.
