“If You Have Had A Child, Then Go Get A Job”
I don’t think people with sever (sic) disabilites should have children, if you are severely disabled and reciving (sic) disability support and money that shows that you are not capable of looking after yourself it shows that you cannot hold a job. If you are relying soley (sic) on the government to support you why should the tax payer have to support a lifestyle choice that you decided to to because you want to prove that you can do it. Well if you have had a child the (sic) go get a job and prove you don’t need to live of tax payers money.
This blog is open to all sides of opinion. However I have to say, this comment is one of the most offensive things I have ever read.
Can I just make one thing clear- receiving DLA/PIP DOES NOT necessarily mean a person is not capable of looking after themselves. DLA/PIP cover costs that would not be in a person’s life if they were not disabled. You ARE fully entitled to work and still recieve DLA/PIP. Many disabled people do.
For the record, I DO fully support the rights of disabled people to have children.
But I am shivering with fear at the level of hate that exists towards people claiming disability benefits in the UK today. I strongly believe that opinions like willobel’s are a direct result of welfare ‘reforms’ and media portrayal of these ‘reforms.’
But readers, this belief does not make willowbel’s words any less painful to read.
Today, readers, we’re being told we shouldn’t have children if we’re claiming disability benefits. Tomorrow we’ll be told we shouldn’t be alive if we’re claiming disability benefits.
Readers, I’m a strong person, a disability campaigner, with a lifetime of hearing such comments behind me. My tears will dry. However, if enough willowbels keep making similar comments, how long will it be before younger disabled people and those who become disabled later in life start believing the comments and limiting their lifestyles- or worse- their lives- as a result?

This government has a lot to answer for, because their attitudes towards sick and disabled people is making it legal for people like willowbel to make those offensive remarks. I get DLA and my DLA is crucial I helping me stay employed . Disabled people can and do work and we want to but are restricted in what we can do, but does that make us any less human beings?

VOTING SMALL PARTY SOLE WAY TO GET UK MAJORITY GOVERNMENT
Labour cannot rule alone ever again.
Labour gained only around 250 MPs in 2010.
Minimum to rule is 326 MPs.
Labour will be reduced to around 190 MPs in 2015.
TORIES WILL REMAIN IN POWER
Without the Tories and Lib Dem MPs reduced by voting different on Thursday 7 May, the Tories will remain in power for another 5 years, in a Caretaker Government.
THIS IS THE VOTE OR STARVE ELECTION
More how the poor now vastly outnumber all other voters and how small parties have the biggest power in UK history.

to be honest it shows the level of intelligence in the country today, the person who wrote the original blog has a very limited education and is obviously repeating what they heard on daddy’s knees. Everyone disabled or not has the right to life and the right to a family.

Perhaps one should ask if anyone who knowingly votes Tory has the mental and emotional capacity to rear children, or if knowingly voting for the Tories constitutes some severe form of mental aberration?

rascism, ageism, all forms of discrimination and against the law, but its fine to slate the financially challenged the sick and disabled mercilessly without reprisal?, I say no! discrimination is wrong and cowardly no matter who the target and uk law should reflect that but it wont as the law system is as corrupt as it gets, same goes for the politicians, I would describe them as deceitful slimeballs but thats much too complimentary.
