If you’re one of the 2 million faking a disability – Vote Labour! Vote for the party that puts scroungers first!

Ed Miliband has proudly announced that he is going to bring Socialism back to Britain. Labour’s version of Socialism means taking money from those who can be bothered to work and dishing it out to those who have decided to live off benefits. We couldn’t afford Labour’s Socialism when Britain had some form of immigration controls. Heaven knows how we’re going to afford it when any of  the EU’s 500 million people can come to Britain and claim any or even most of the following:

• Attendance Allowance
• Child Benefit
• Council Tax Benefit
• Disability Living Allowance 
• Guardian’s Allowance
• Housing Benefit
• Income Support
• Income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance
• Industrial Injuries Disablement Benefit
• Carer’s allowance
• Reduced Earnings Allowance
• Severe Disablement Allowance
• Statutory Sick Pay

Disability benefits give a nice picture of how our benefits system gets abused. Under Labour, the useless and venal Blair/Brown government tried to hide the level of unemployment by encouraging those who couldn’t be bothered to work to claim disability benefits (click to see more clearly)

This meant that Britain had almost the highest level of disability payments of any developed country. We were only beaten by Norway. I’ve worked in Norway and most people there looked pretty healthy. But anyway, Norway can afford such largesse for the genuinely disabled and the professional scroungers. We can’t.

But, in spite of the evidence that around half of the £20bn a year paid in Disability Living Allowance and Incapacity Benefits is given to people who are really rather healthy, in a speech to the Labour Party conference Liam Byrne, the party’s shadow work and pensions secretary (he who left a note saying there was no money left) is to call for the French company in charge of the Government’s fit-or-work assessments to be “sacked”. He will also commit Labour to making ‘disability hate’ a crime.

Here’s a “lady” who has claimed she can only walk with the help of crutches enjoying an action-packed holiday in the sun thanks to the generosity/stupidity (delete as appropriate) of us taxpayers

So, of the 4 million people claiming some disability, if you’re one of the 2 million or so who are genuine, you deserve our support to make your life better. But if you’re one of the around 2 million lazy, thieving, lying, parasitical scumbags faking a disability to get your hands on other people’s money, vote Labour! Vote for the Parasites Party! Vote for the party that puts scroungers first!
