[QUOTE="Sid Bonkers, post: 469870, member: 19121"] Actually 1% of £160 million is £1.6 million which is exactly the same amount that the government pay ATOS to reduce the benefits bill. So where is the saving? All these reassessments do is to cause unbelievable stress to those who are most at risk in our so called society. [url]http://welfarenewsservice.com/atos-contracts-cost-taxpayers-nearly-1-6-billion/[/url] The reality is that the number of benefit fraudsters is very very small indeed but its always easiest to go after the easy targets rather than the millionaires who pay nothing in tax on the millions they earn in the UK year in year out. Smoke and mirrors.... Benefit reassessment was first introduced by Labour before the last election and carried forward by the Tories so the fact is there is little to distinguish the two parties today they are equally as ineffective and inefficient as each other when it comes to government, collecting taxes and distributing of benefits to those who need them.
