Petition Calling For Benefit Sanctions To Be Scrapped Hits Nearly 2000 Signatures In First Few Hours

Last Updated: October 29, 2013By

As Johnny Void rightly writes, “No government ever changed anything because of a petition. Power needs to be forced to make concessions, not asked nicely. ” But signing this one couldn’t hurt – and would send the right message. So please take a moment to add your name.

    for this to be effective 2000 Signatures is very poor
    don’t get me wrong it may sound good but with a sick and disabled audience of those affected of over one million people 2000 Signatures is nothing

    you would need to get around 250’000 to make good headway this would mean that all sick and disabled along with other groups of people were of the same opinion and shared the same values

      Nick, it was at 2,000 within a few hours of going up. I think it will probably go a lot further than that!

        it’s still no good mike
        the sick and disabled are a large group of society of well over one million people but they have not pulled together to make there presence thereforour they are easy pickings for the government

        you need a minimum of 100’000 Signatures to get the government just to look at your compliant only and with regret as i say that is not enougf

        sure the blogs are doing well but not good enougf to get the message out that if you don’t pull together you will end up in the vast majority of cases at best very poor and housebound or at worse dead

        and it’s as simple as that mike it couldn’t be any simpler you pull together or stay poor or die

        there are no other courses of any possibility’s the government have made it plain they couldn’t make it any planer go to work or suffer the consequences

        what part of that massaage mike dont the public understand ?

          What will you say if this petition gets a million signatures?

          • Nick October 29, 2013 at 7:38 pm

            well if we got that it would mean that the sick and disabled were united with the aim of change and change at that point would happen
