Atos have cancelled Christmas for thousands of sick and disabled people by cutting sickness benefits on behalf of the government to cut the public debt. The most vulnerable in society have been made to pay for the greed of bankers and the inevitable booms and busts of captitalist economics.

The Atos computer based assessment does not work, particularly for people with multiple health issues.

Most people who appeal through an advice centre against losing sickness benefits win their appeal. A system designed to cut the public debt has now cost the public an additional £80 million to process appeals. Profits are privatised and debts are socialised.
