Subject: RE: BS: Benefits (uk) & The Age of Suspicion
Today I received my report from ATOS examination done 23 April for my DLA application. I am officially a failed free loader.

So all you tax paying benefits doubting folk can rest easy. I won't be drawing any mobility component which is what I most needed.

Needed because I cannot walk more than 40 metres on bad days. Needed because more than 90% of days from October 2011 until today have been bad days. Needed because my doctors have told me I am not going to get better now. Probably only worse. And if the last 6 days are any indication they are correct. So I will continue to pay up to £500.00 out of pocket for taxi fares to and from medical appointments. Never mind just going out on my own.

At least I am not free loader. And the taxes your government takes from me (I have worked full time since I arrived in this country) and you can do some good. Like padding the deserving rich.
