How does the DWP ensure that concerns raised by coroners after inquests into the deaths of benefit claimants are not just put in a file and forgotten about? – It doesn’t and it wants them to be forgotten. In fact, it doesn’t want you to know about them in the first place!

The WOWpetition spoke at the 10,000 cuts and counting service of remembrance in Parliament Square on the 8th September 2013 as we truly believed the evidence strongly suggested disabled people were being targeted by the ConDem’s and this was a causal factor in some deaths. Rather then accept that reasonable people held this belief and reassure them that this wasn’t the case, we have been told by Government Ministers that disabled people die because they’re disabled, “trolled” by journalists telling us the statistics don’t mean what they say, lied to by Iain Duncan Smith who said the statistics didn’t exist barely weeks before they were published and had to deal with this Government continually trying to hide the actuality & delay releasing the truth.
It is of no surprise to the WOWcampaign that the DWP do not professionally manage the correspondence from Coroners nor ensure that any recommendations or findings are properly considered as we believe they do not want any evidence in the public domain of what they have been doing. It seems that this Government believes that if it both denies its policies are a causal factor in the many thousands of deaths of disabled people and either doesn’t collect or refuses to publish the evidence of causality, then nobody died because of its policies and ideology. The WOWcampaign believes that truth and the evidence is out there and will continue to work to bring it out into the open. We will not rest until this Government and its Ministers face justice in respect of the thousands of disabled people killed by their ideology.
We believe that our Government should accept that it is a widely held view that they are practising the policies of Democide and accept it is time for them to Just Stop acting like cowards. Come clean. Set up a Royal Commission into whether their policies been a causal factor in the deaths of many disabled people? The thousands and thousands of disabled people that have died deserve at least this much. You could also sign wowpetition.co.uk and someone might just ask them to do this during the debate it will generate, once it gets 100,000 signatures.
