The BMA voted to scarp the cruel and useless computer tick box, miracle cure based WCA "Computer Say's No" test, by the power of an acronym ( you know the one [Link deleted, led to new thread page. Moderator YEH] ) "behold you are cured"
I know this the not end no, but this is a start at least to get a fairer system in place that actually takes into account the patients conditions as opposed to insulating and degrading questions like
"can you watch Eastenders" [Link deleted, led to new thread page. Moderator YEH] there are endless jobs on offer that require this particular couch/bed based skill I am sure.
To quote a great man "I have a dream" WE WILL I am sure win the day sooner or later and expose this corrupt cruel and inhuman attitude that has recently sprung up against disabled people and banish the government propaganda and atitude to the many already shameful pages of history where it belongs.
Disability will always exist in a civilised society of human beings no matter how hard you try and pretend it does not, and some will always be just too unfit to work, we are human and most of us will break sooner or later.
The question that remains is do we live in a civilised society, if so this must stop now.

    The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.
