A Cambridge man with crippling osteoporosis says the Government is taking away his mobility scooter.

Former delivery-driver Clifton Quinn, 57, claims he has been deemed ineligible for the vehicle after he underwent a Personal Independence Payment (PIP) assessment on January 12.

Clifton, who is registered disabled and relies on a full-time carer, suffers from severe osteoporosis, spinal degeneration and pancreatic problems which severely inhibit his mobility.
