Repeated DWP WCA Are Acts Of Conscious Cruelty Jeremy Vine

Hi Mr Vine, Everybody

The despicable DWP is in the firing line in this blog post Mr Vine. I've created this poster to take to my next WCA. The third in four years.



Yes times change. But the dynamic of power over others stays the same.

For those who don't know. CHDA refers to the Center for Health and Disability Assessments. And WCA = Work Capability Assessments. I'm sure you know the DWP = The Department for Works and Pensions.

On the 2/4/2019 I wrote this covering letter. For yet another ESA50 form for the DWP. It's one they require you to fill out. Mostly the questions are for Physical Disabilities. But there are sections for Mental Health issues.

Here is the covering letter.


To whom it concerns 2/4/2019

Enclosed you will find various letters sent to your department on previous forms.

They are: Letter dated 1/2/2016 Letter dated 15/2/2017 (Never responded to). Comment made on your form after your 26/4/2018 letter.

Within each is the repeated request for EXEMPTION FROM all further assessments. That request has been systematically denied me.

I note from the reports made by the Maximus employees. That they recommend a review within 12mths. Even though at each of the last two assessments the request was made verbally. In fact I pointed out to (Interviewer B name removed pending any investigation) that I had observed 3 others during my 50 minute appointment over run. That also should be exempt from all further testing. (She nodded in agreement. No mention in the report) I wonder if they are being reassessed so that Maximus can get their £190 per appointment payment. And keep the multi-millionaire owners in the lifestyle they have become accustomed to.

Both employees are in my opinion nothing more than Vulnerable Adult abusers. A) (Name withheld) and B) (Name withheld).

I can only assume that this is Maximus policy in order to maximise profit. This 12mths review BS. Rather than them do the right thing and place ''Suggest exemption from assessment for the foreseeable future''.  But that would eat into their profit margin wouldn't it.

Last year I sacked my GP for refusing to write said request in a letter to you. But then they have been negligent to my health n welfare in other areas of my life. Prejudice is a strange animal as I have learnt from experience. Yes even today. Where some sad joker in this close I live in. Has stolen my food waste bin. I'm sure they are feeling very pleased with themselves. But then hate crime here isn't new to me either. Not that the GP's care.

I have not signed up to any other GP surgery. Given this is not the first GP to not give a monkeys. I guess I will have to put up with BS over this. When and if I end up in AnE. I wonder if they get paid for any interactions with the DWP and such a letter would put them out of pocket. Or is it that they like you just don't 'Get it''. When I repeat and repeat and repeat ''I never ever, never ever, want to go back to the working world ever again''.

The reasons for that I have also repeated and repeated and repeated. I call this ''Mind rape. Emotional abuse rape''. I no longer wish to be ''Mind raped. Emotionally abused raped'' by the DWP. By having to reveal my inner world to another 'Vulnerable adult abuser' at yet another assessment. It's an invasion of my right to privacy and I am objecting to it happening to me. Yet again!

To quote from the 1/2/2016 letter ''To take me off ESA would be to set me up to fail'' ie To intentionally cause me harm. With Maximus aiding and abetting you in this.

So if you could see your way to granting me said exemption I would be most grateful. To not do so would be 'Conscious Cruelty' on your part.

Yours David Gabriel (National insurance number)


It made me laugh last year Mr Vine. When I tuned into your show on the 70th anniversary of the NHS 5th July 2018. I felt like tweeting 'I sacked my GP on the 3/5/2018 Mr Vine. Cos they just don't get it' They are ignorant of the rights of their patients to 'Exemption'. After all it's not something they are trained in.

It would be hoped that following any investigation to this complaint of mine. That the Welsh Assembly Government inform all GP's in Wales about Regulation 29(2)(b). The right to Exemption on various grounds. Both physical disabilities and mental health grounds.

I have quoted Regulation 29(2)(b) in further correspondence. They claim my interpretation is wrong. It's not what Mind.org say in this pdf. 

https://www.mind.org.uk/media/309761/Mind_ESA_factsheet_2.pdf 

On page 2 you will see in Accessing the Support Component  

'That being found fit for work would cause a serious risk to your own or someone else's, mental or physical health, that would be enough to qualify you for ESA.'

On the 1/2/2016 I sent them this covering letter. On yet another ESA50 Form. Oh how I despise those forms Mr Vine. 

To who it may concern  1/2/2016

Attached you will find the previous assessment form I filled out. It is virtually the same as your latest and as I am loath to repeat myself. Enclose it here.

I will restate here, as I have many times in the number of visits I have made to your offices. I cannot cope with the working world. I never ever never ever never, wish to go back to the working world again. I would dearly love that there was a mechanism. Whereby I could have a judgement that your office never ever again write to me regarding any assessment. Due to the anxiety it engenders on lots of levels. Not least being unable to afford small luxuries like internet access. But that is unlikely, given that vulnerable adults are just cash cows for a professional elite. In this instance you.

Any change in my benefit would cause me unnecessary hardship. To take me off ESA would be to set me up to fail. With the likely hood of my facing sanctions and ultimately losing my home. To take me off ESA only to have that decision reversed on appeal. Would be to play games with those who have mental health issues. It ought to be listed as a crime. But then the DWP and its associates, seem immune from prosecution. For the Corporate Manslaughter of those who have committed suicide due to the rigours of our hate filled government despite towards any type of benefit claimant, but even more so the long term unemployed. They prefer to go after the powerless in their ideological onslaught of austerity, rather than the tax dodging corporations.

The Doctors name on the form has been amended to Dr. (name removed here pending any investigation) same surgery details. I trust that this is sufficient to forestall any appointment. A letter confirming such would be greatly appreciated as the hatred they engender within me, are feelings I can well do without.

Thank you

David Gabriel


In 2017 regulation 29(2)(b) became law. It is supposed to be a protection mechanism. From over zealous DWP employees. But as you can see from my 2019. They refuse to uphold that right of protection. To stop the abuse these WCA feel like to me.

The three others I saw in a 50 minute overrun of my appointment. Funny when you consider they banned me from attending a previous one. For being 30 minutes late. What I'm wondering Mr Vine. Is how many more go through their doors. Day in day out. That should also be granted exemption?

It must be in the hundreds per week. I see it as 'Job protection' by the DWP and the CHDA. Nationwide it must be in the 100's of thousands. Week in week out Ka-ching,Ka-ching ring the Maximus cash register. Keeping their USA millionaire owners in a style, benefit claimants could never even dream of.

Should all these other claimants also be granted exemption. Then the DWP would be forced to cut its staffing levels. And Maximus profits would be greatly eaten into. That is the real reason they refuse to grant exemption under Regulation 29(2)(b). The rest is just 'Game Playing' with vulnerable adults lives. In order to feather their own nests.

Once again this banner of mine comes into play.



The professional elite in this case the DWP and CHDA employees. I have repeatedly asked Mr Serwotka the union leader for DWP employees on twitter. 'Why have you never brought your members. Out on strike over the imposition of sanctions?' He never replies. I ask the same question of the TUC. They also refuse to answer it also.

The odds of what I have outlined in my 1/2/2016. Being Sanctioned, penniless ultimately losing my home. Are a 99.9% certainty. As I know myself. If that is not 'Serious risk to my health' I really don't know what is. And that was written before Reg 29(2)(b) became law!

I will leave it at this for now Mr Vine. I shall be sending a copy to the DWP and CHDA. In the hope that they will have the decency to cancel my appointment even at this late date. With The First Minister at the Senedd cc along with your show email.

'You gotta fight for the right to say NO MORE!'  

If only I could find a multi-millionaire willing to buy the above artwork for £2.5M. I would be free of Cardiff County Council and the DWP for what remains of my time on Gaia.


UPDATE 26/9/2019 That Cheeky Mr Livesey

I've been lapse in sending the email out Mr. Vine. I've had a reply from Council Complaints Oh dear. I'll make a new post around that. But to up the game I tweeted this today.

We hope that the House of Commons Health Committee are a tad more proactive. Than Mr Drakeford in his twitter usage. I'm still looking for that multi-millionaire to buy the poster. Maybe it will be the final straw that breaks the DWP's back. Freeing 100's of 1,000's from their cruel regime.

Because following this blog. It is hope that All GP's in the UK will be made aware. Of the rights of their patients to 'Exemption' from face to face assessments. For ESA,PIP and UC claimants. By their separate governments.

With a request that each GP identify patients on their books. Who would benefit from 'Exemption'. After all the DWP contact them often enough prior to assessments. A clearing house if you will. So that the profiteers of these repeated abuses. The Maximus millionaire owners. Take the hit to their profits. They so richly deserve.

''Oh look Duhwave. We just cut dat gerwuvernment assessment budget in 'arf'' ''And saved a lot of people needless anxiety and stress. They can well do without Kid'' ''Yay! Free cheers for Us'' 


Oh and for anyone out there being hounded by the DWP and the CHDA. Use this link to see if you qualify for freedom from Face to Face assessments. From the Women with visible and invisible illnesses blog here. https://winvisibleblog.wordpress.com/benefits-help-info/

The Scabs Are Coming Jeremy Vine. The Scabs Are Coming

Hi Mr Vine, Everybody

The last post was getting way to long. Who needs all that scrolling. So Mr Phelps got back to me Mr Vine. His email.


Hello Mr Gabriel.

Thank you for your e-mail and in information within .

We have now been in contact with Cardiff City Council and you are 100% correct that the property has indeed already been tested.

But unfortunately the property failed the test and the property requires a re-wire.

We would like to book a day and time convenient with yourself for when we can visit you at the property to talk through the works that are required to be undertaken .

Would you be so kind and e-mail or call us on 02920888606 to book a convenient day and time for us to visit ?

Thanks

Mr James Phelps

Starlight Electrical Services Ltd

I know when I'm beaten Mr Vine. So I sent Mr Phelps this.

Hello Mr Phelps

I see you have me by the balls and are squeezing. I will call Rolant and arrange the time.

One day I hope the anguish this matter has caused me so far. Is visited upon you. Let alone the anguish the aftermath will also cause me.

But what do you care of those things you're making coin. I can but pray the scales get balanced eventually.

Yours David Gabriel

As ever inspiration struck me Mr Vine. The following are my views on these enforced works. You see it's gone from changing an old fuse box to a complete rewire. This is supposed to teach me not to mess with council employees. Much like when I complained about Dweebfoliant man. And for my troubles had a list of things they wanted me to do in the garden. With nothing said to him at all. If that's not discrimination I don't know what is.

                         ''You gotta fight for the right to say NO!'' 

I've shot a video of the entire show. But unfortunately my computer is to old for youtubes studio editing. And I will have to go to an internet cafe. To edit all the clips to one video. It will be online soon and added here.

I arranged an appoint with Rolant (Not Rolland as I thought I heard it). And a Mr White will be visiting me Monday. I shall ask Mr White to read the above. Before asking him the question. ''Tell me Mr White are ye an Honourable man or are ye a Scab?''

My money is on him being a Scab Mr Vine. So I've made a few other artworks to convey my feelings on these matters. Like this.


This is a relief sculpture I have in my kitchen. Buddha dude wants to get in on the action. But Scabs don't care to heed wisdom. All they are interested in is coin.

For those who don't know what Karma is. Well it's a bit like the Christian saying ''As you do unto others. So also shall it be done unto you. Yea verily pressed down and running over''. In this instance the violation of ones home. By unwanted intruders.

After the Kitchen we move into the lounge Mr Vine. Where these works have covered my other art works. You will see the before and after in the video.

How very true. We have no desire to speak with any Scabs Mr Vine. Well would you? After Gollum they will encounter Oliver Reed. In this work.


We really don't want them in here Mr Vine. A tenant ought to have input into these things. It's not as if it's an emergency is it? And this coming week is not good at all Mr Vine. Yet another WCA because the DWP like to play games with peoples lives. You will hear more on that soon.

After they see Mr Reed. They will be confronted by the history of Scabs. And how they have been viewed in Wales in the past.



Am I being harsh Mr Vine. I don't think so. I've used Mr Bevan's words as he described Tories. Scabs and Tories go hand in hand after all. And then Alice through the looking glass gets transformed to this.



The lament of Scabs and Jobsworths the world over Mr Vine. ''I was only doing my job''. People with power over others Mr Vine. They usually get away with abusing that power. And tenants really should have the right. To refuse unwanted intrusions into their home life by Landlords. Enshrined in Law.

So moving from the lounge we go into the bedroom. .Where this has been displayed to greet the Scabs


How are they even allowed to threaten it Mr Vine. The Council might own the properties. But these are our homes. And we ought to have a say in what occurs inside of them. These are Non-Emergency works. 

This is really really not a good time for me to be dealing with this. The DWP are my main concern at this time. With my future at stake. All because they refuse to accept that Regulation 29(2)(b) is there to protect people like me from their excesses.

So then its into the bathroom. Where they will meet this.



After all they deserve none. Do they Mr Vine. If they were a unionised workforce. I'd be letting their union know about this. Asking 'Are your members allowed to cross Picket Lines?' I'd hope their guidance would be 'No they are not'.

In the video I point out this pipe. It's the main gas intake pipe for the combi boiler. 



Do you ever go back to the past and change it Mr Vine. I do. In this case the Gas Engineer asks the same question. 'Where's the gas meter'. I stroll over to where he is standing by the combi boiler and ask. 'Where's the main gas intake pipe chief?' He points to the pipe where the red arrow is pointing. 'By there' he says. I say 'Well where do you imagine the meter is'' He says pointing behind the wall. 'Out there!' I say 'Got it in one pal'. 

You see Mr Vine he knew where it was all the time.

I guess Mr Drakeford will ignore all notifications about this blog. That he will ignore all emails. Just like the ones he's ignored about the previous blog post. 

I express myself in the common tongue Mr Vine. And get discriminated against for my troubles. That is unlawful under EU Law. Not that anyone will uphold my complaint on that score either.

I will let you know if Mr White is an honourable man or not. I very much doubt that he will be though. You see the Wales Cerys Mathews paints such a rosy picture of. It's not the Wales I know. And I've been here over a decade longer than she has. Truth versus perception. It must vary from individual to individual.

The name of the man in Cardiff Council dealing with this is a Mr Joseph Hobbs. His email is joseph.hobbs@cardiff.gov.uk If you fancy sending him an email Mr Vine. Asking how can you happily burgle peoples homes. He will BS you about the imperative of gaining access etc etc.

Now I have to change the spelling on the sign 'Burgal'. I should have spell checked before hand. But hey we are fonetic in our spellin'.

Time to tweet.

UPDATE 24/9/2019 I Met Two Honourable Men Yesterday.

Hi Mr Vine,

Maybe the subtitle should be 'Well that went well'.

Mr White and a colleague turned up bang on time. I asked them to read the sign. Then asked them the question. 'Are you Honourable men or are you Scabs ?'' I must say they handled what must have been an unusual situation with great tact and diplomacy.

Being a credit to themselves. Their company and no doubt viewed with great pride by their parents. I congratulate Mr Phelps on his choice of employee.

They respected the Picket Line. Taking a photo so as to explain better. To Mr Phelps and Mr Hobbs what had greeted them. No doubt I shall be hearing more about it soon. But for now I have a little respite.

My Valleys Boy sub-personality later in the day summed it up like this. ''Fair doo's Crazydave they respected the picket line. Dew nice to know there are still honourable men in Wales. Init!'' He said it with a glowing pride Mr Vine. Which of course flowed through me.

Apparently I fibbed about Mr Drakeford not getting back to me. I hadn't checked my email during the creative frenzy. here's what the First Minister Office have to say. Email arrival date Fri 20/9/2019.

Dear David,

Thank you for your email of 30 August to the First Minister, Mark Drakeford AM, regarding the matters you have raised with Cardiff County Council. I have been asked to reply on his behalf.

I am sorry you feel the difficulties you are experiencing have not been dealt with satisfactorily and continue to affect your health and well-being. The Welsh Government is unable to intervene in individual cases, how ever I hope you find the following suggestions and information useful.

You have specifically asked for the First Minister to help you take out an injunction, preventing the annual gas service being undertaken on your home. The Council, as landlord for your property, is legally responsible for ensuring the safety of tenants and visitors to its properties. It is extremely important for the gas service to be carried out annually to ensure your safety from gas leaks and carbon monoxide poisoning.The frequency of servicing allows for any faults to be identified and rectified as quickly as possible. For these reasons, by law, it would not be possible for the Council to stop undertaking these important checks. 

I acknowledge you have liaised with the Council about other issues previously. However, if you continue to be unhappy with any of the services they provide, including your recent gas service, you can make a formal complaint to the Council through their complaints procedure. The procedure is outlined in the link below, or you can contact them on 029 2087 2087

https://www.cardiff.gov.uk/ENG/Home/Contact-us/Comments-complaints-and-compliments/Pages/default.aspx 

I also understand from your correspondence that you are pursuing the issues you are unhappy with through the route of the Public Services Ombudsman for Wales. I hope you will receive a satisfactory response in due course. Shelter Cymru provide independent advice on housing rights and housing issues in general, and may be able to help, contacting any appropriate agencies in connection with your situation. Their telephone number is 0345 075 5005, or you can contact them through their website: https:///sheltercymru.org.uk. I hope you find a resolution to your situation.

Yours sincerely Kathryn Murphy
Housing Policy Officer 

Is it just me Mr Vine ? Or would you find that reply unsatisfactory also? I guess Kathryn missed the bit about using the Councils twitter feed to put in a complaint. Or the part where, the Ombudsman fob me off with the online complaint forms BS.

Or the part where my usage of the gas is so minimal. That my getting Carbon Monoxide poisoning from it is about 0.1%. Even with a faulty boiler!

Sometimes I wonder Mr Vine if these people. Are being paid £20K a year to much.  Nothing what so ever about ''Achem! Can I 'ave me old electric boiler back dear.'' My Cockney Granny sub-personality would like to know.

I do despair at times Mr Vine. The disconnect between the have's and the have not's. Especially when it comes from organisations that should be aware of the issues. Those in the heating v eating debate have. And how they might be mitigated against.

The £130 a year saving by not having the gas system in place. Would cover any additional electric heating cost through the winter, and then some! Me and Mr Tiddles would be snug, as bugs in a rug. With that money to spread over a few winter months. ''Yessum! Bwana'' Chimes in my African American slave sub-personality.

So I guess it's same old same old once again. With nobody in power really hearing what is being said here.

Time to tweet Mr Vine.
