Maybe I'm stupid but pip was only brought in just over ten years ago as a way to reform the system and prevent "scroungers and cheats" by the Tory's, surely by pushing reform now that's all but admitting they're thick as shite and and they're deliberately targeting vulnerable people. How does the electorate not see this?
More to the point. Pip is specifically designed to measure your indevidual ability to cope. Clear.y based on there attempt to ignore it.
He recently compared rejected results not to 2010 saying there is no way such a high % can pass now but not them.
Well that because the courts kept telling them they were breaking g the law whe they rejected folks around 2010.
