QT: Tory MP shredded by audience member for saying the government are looking after least fortunate
Link to tweet
Every day I see people in my job who are ill, and who are being made even more ill because of PIP (personal independence payments).
The PIP process is making them even more unwell. It takes over a year to get to a tribunal and the decisions are usually overturned.
In the meantime, they’re left without their mobility cars, they can’t travel.
They’re living in absolute poverty, and that is all because of austerity and the Tory government.

BOOM - not that he gives a shit....
