The news in brief 1st September 2015

The news in brief:

The Department of Work and Pensions had a pretty good idea on paper: let's not write people off as beyond any use to society and leave them to subsist on handouts, instead let's focus on what people can do and empower them to find work and ensure that employers help them. Freedom. Independence. Dignity.  The news in brief loves heaping bowlfuls of that.  

But when you send a 20 page 'prove you're unfit for work' assessment form to someone who cannot read or speak, has autism, epilepsy and Down's syndrome, cannot feed or clothe themselves and needs help going to the fucking bathroom, you're a cunt.  

Now stop reading the news and get back to work.  We read it so you don't have to...
