SCRAP THE WELFARE REFORM & WORK ACT
The Welfare Reform & Work Bill, that reached Royal Assent to become an ACT 16th March 2016 - should be ANNULLED - due to Iain Duncan Smith resignation letter content and further 'evidence' from MP Nadine Dorries suggesting BRIBERY and BEGGING MP/s in which direction to vote - meaning this Act was not voted upon in a fair honest manner. A full investigation is required and the Act scrapping.
Why is this important?
This Act contained serious implications for societies most vulnerable - sick, disabled, poverty, and SMI Benefit being lost, with a repayable loan for every single (benefit) payment, added onto the sick, disabled, non working or low income or pensioner's house deeds, by way of a charge, meaning a serious life line, a safety net that pays a little towards mortgage interest is due to be lost, where homeowners are 'blackmailed' into letting Gov / DWP or alt. onto deeds. Regardless that Gov / DWP says may repay upon death or when start work, nor where states will only claim what equity is available. It means many vulnerable people will face homelessness or repossession, if decline loan - OR with the other benefits that are being cut, such as ESA / DLA (ridded) or if fail to secure PIP payments or even if pass but lower amount awarded - or loss of monies under Universal Credit or any other Welfare, these people simply will NOT be able to pay their mortgages. It is important to note that the SMI aspect within this bill was not properly debated and there was no VOTE, it is pending Secondary Legislation as a statutory process, however the Bill should not have been made an ACT until such serious detrimental matters were fully discussed.
In light of Iain Duncan Smith's resignation letter, he made clear he did NOT agree with the reforms to the degree the Chancellor / Prime Minister were pushing for and that it was Political, making disabled suffer whilst the rich gained. This blows the reason FINANCIAL PRIVILEGE and "not fair on tax payer" arguments out of the water. If the Minister that dealt this Bill didn't agree with it, it is void, if then MP/s were forced or BRIBED and BEGGED to VOTE FOR CUTS to disabled benefits, when they intended to vote AGAINST the cuts, this invalidates, even if it was one such vote, regardless of the total majority votes, may remain merely one (or some) less, the whole act is brought into disrepute and can not stand.
As the resigned Minister blamed Chancellor George Osborne and Prime Minister David Cameron for forcing him to bring about this Bill now Act and he disagreed with further cuts, a day after this Act reached Royal Assent, then resigned the next day, then clearly none of these cuts would have happened as per normal process and was a dishonest action by several Conservative Cabinet members.
16th March 2016 - Welfare Reform & Work Bill - Act
17th March 2016 - Budget Day - more disabled cuts - PIP
18th March 2016 Iain Duncan Smith resigned as a revolt
18th March 2016 Nadine Dorries publicly announced BRIBED to vote for cuts.
18th March 2016 David Cameron allegedly resorted to name calling IDS (Daily Mail)
there should therefore be NO DISABLED BENEFIT CUTS.
