The richest Prime Minister in history – worth an estimated £529,000,000 – is demonising sick and disabled people. He wants us to blame our problems on anyone but the real culprits: The Tory government, their super-rich donors, and a system that puts greed before human need.

Let me tell you how stupid this country is. Doctors are not allowed to evaluate whether we're too sick to work but people with no medical and diagnostic background can say you're fit to work during a PIP assessment. And they can override what you're doctor saying.
