Investigation of the Government into mistreatment of claimants

It is about time!

I often think of Errol Graham and how that poor man suffered so terribly at the hands of the DWP. Things have to change, things MUST change, I just hope this is the beginning of a long awaited change in how this country treats it's vulnerable people.

Thank you Poppy, apologies for the useless link.

I do wonder how the pending July General Election will affect this now?

It's just amazing how long it has taken them to notice.

I still have residual trauma from my PIP claim in 2017.

I really hope that they manage to get some of that mindset out of the DWP. At last it feels like our voices are being heard.

It's about time they were properly held responsible for those people they failed, too.

If a thorough investigation of the the DWP processes took place I think the findings would be damming. I can’t think of another dept that continues to get away with so much without consequence or any clear oversight that holds them responsible.
