Zero points!!! Seriously??!!

Hi all,
Just got my decision (first time claim) and as probably expected, I scored 0 points for everything and the report was full of lies like most on here...Why do they keep doing this to us. I have had a stroke and certainly matched up enough descriptors to allow for enhanced on both, but 0?!! I cant walk 50M without stopping - report said I can do 200m without issue (how exactly do they know that??), I can make budget decisions lol...yea right!!, I can prepare a meal....I nearly burnt the house down as the stroke has affected my memory so badly, that I forgot I had the gas on with food in the pan.....I could go on and on!! its a disgrace and this Government have a hell of a lot to answer for putting the likes of Capita and Atos in charge of our lives....So, now to start the MR process and probably fail that too...then have to wait a year to have a tribunal....pathetic joke of a system!!! sorry for the rant...more than a little upset and anxious now!!
