Campaign Groups Call For Welfare Ceasefire With Online ‘Thunderclap’
Same Difference heard about this Thunderclap over the long weekend. We will be participatting with pleasure.
The Green party, Plaid Cymru and members of the SNP are all backing a call by CarerWatch and Pat’s Petition for a ‘Ceasefire in Welfare Reforms.’ Campaigners are now asking supporters to take part in a ‘thunderclap’ on April 16th.
Amongst other issues, the groups are calling for a temporary halt to ESA sanctions, the one year contribution-based ESA time-limit, the bedroom tax for ESA claimants and repeated work capability reassessments. The halt would allow time for a proper review of how sick and disabled people are being treated in relation to work, in particular.
They are also urging supporters to sign up to a ‘thunderclap’ which will broadcast a message from hundreds of supporters simultaneously via Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr on April 16th in the hope of moving benefits up the election agenda.
You can find out more about the ceasefire via the Disability News Service and sign up to the thunderclap here.

The Tories have to be stopped. IDS is a very dangerous man who is promising life-changing cuts to benefits. I’ve already lost the carers’ allowance for looking after my severely disabled cousin. I shudder to imagine what this man has in store for us if he gets back in.

THERE IS ONLY WAY THAT THE TORIES CAN BE STOPPED
The poor voter, of all ages, well or disabled, are the majority of all voters today.
The Tories got into power from voting areas where most people did not vote.
The Tories have not won outright since 1992.
Labour is headed to be a minority party in opposition, with only about 190 MPs, when the threshold to form a UK parliament is 323-326 MPs.
No party reached that threshold in 2010, that is why we had a coalition.
The Lib Dems are the gone party, losing most of their seats in Scotland, hopefully.
The Lib Dems Pension Minister Mr Steve Webb is presiding over the abolition of the state pension for new claimants from 2016.

WHERE IS MEBYON KERNOW OF CORNWALL?
This party is running in all 6 Cornwall MP voting areas.
They could take 6 Tories and Lib Dem MPs, easy, out of the job they gained in 2010, because most Cornish did not vote.
WHERE IS TUSC FOR ENGLAND?
6th biggest party running in all of UK, but mostly in England.
The shame is that TUSC and other parties of the poor bother running in Wales or Scotland, and did not focus entirely on England, where a lot of Tory and Lib Dem voting areas would fall to them, if the poor knew the parties of the poor of the left even existed.
Some of these parties run agaisnt each other in the same voting area.
When they have the whole of England to spread out in.
WHY DOES NOT LABOUR SHUT UP SHOP IN SCOTLAND AND WALES?
WHY DOES LABOUR NOT SUPPORT THE MEDIA COVERAGE /
ADVERTS OF THE PARTIES OF THE POOR OF THE LEFT
IN TORY AND LIB DEM VOTING AREAS
IN ENGLAND?
WHO ARE THE PARTIES OF THE POOR OF THE LEFT

Labour is wasting funding in Scotland and in Wales, when the focus should be on reducing the number of Lib Dems MPs by support SNP and Plaid Cymru.
Labour is wasting funding in England, by not equally funding the parties of the poor of the left to give them equal billing in Tory and Lib Dem MPs, and stop running their own candidates in those voting areas.
Labour help the parties of the poor of the left spread out across England, instead of competing with each other in the same voting areas.
IT’S CALLED TACTICAL VOTING
A group of parties can form a coalition. That has been the norm in Europe over many years.
The parties can negotiate between each other as well as with Labour, on equal footing when voted in as MPs, if only the poor non-vote were informed about them.
SMALL PARTIES HAVE THE BIGGEST INFLUENCE IN UK HISTORY
Only the small parties of the poor of the left can fetch out the 75 per cent of the people, if only the people realised that voting small party actually works as a whole UK party.
There is no such as a big party, as Tories and Lib Dems won in voting reas where most voters did not vote. Nobody actually won in 2010.
PERHAPS SNP MIGHT HAVE A WORD
The SNP are kingmakers to what exactly?
A second general election later this year,
as this one will fail with the most severe hung parliament,
by the 75 per cent voter that are poor non-voter
not voting for any party in England.
Then we will get a TORY / LABOUR grand coalition,
with only the much less SNP in the opposition as a visiting party down from Scotland, with only a few Plaid Cymru and not the entire Wales of 40 seats.
HERE IS THE MATH
100 MPs, around about, from the various parties of the poor of the left. There could be more.
59 SNP
40 PLAID CYMRU
6 MEBYON KERNOW
About 190 Labour MPs.
Total getting close to 400 MPs ruling UK parliament, in an unassailable majority government, as a majority needs a threshold of around 323-326 MPs and above.
And the Tories and Lib Dems would have been much reduced,
far below the 300 Tories and around 50 Lib Dems in 2010, voted in by a minority of all voters.
HELP THE POOR VOTE SEE THE POWER THEY HAVE FOR A GROUP OF PARTIES TO END AUSTERITY CUTS PERMANENTLY
