The day before he died my brother said "I am going to die and I'm still not sick enough to get PIP". This really has to end. Now! 17k+ dead in 6 years waiting for benefit decisions. I believe the system is related to many suicides, and accelerated deaths (my brother included)

I believe there have been multiple lies on reports, claimants made to do tasks which cause pain
STOP using private companies like Atos and Maximus, save up to £631 million over the next two years alone. Review £51+ million to Citizens Advice to help clients, while agreeing NOT to “unfairly” criticize govt.
Replace with
a) Nothing – awards made on basis of application alone
or
b) Revert to the fairer assessment system that was in place under DLA - a more informal DWP face to face assessment taking into account the medical reports from the claimant's own medical professionals.
