You rang the wrong number, chum

 Just gave the Tory candidate 10 minutes of hell on disability policy under the Tories. For someone who says he has a disabled son, he was appallingly ignorant on actual disability policy and repeatedly tried to tell me I'm wrong on stuff where I was reporting well known facts.

"DWP admits culpability in the deaths of 53 disabled people through implementing Tory austerity policy"

"Over how many years?" (Seriously?!?)

"Those are just the ones they've admitted".

"Um, ah, well at least they admitted it"

"Only because they were forced to by the Freedom of Information process, and the reports are redacted to hell."

"We raised disability benefits this year!"

"Not the legacy disability benefits though"

"Well, they're legacy"

"Not to the people still trying to live on them!"

*Headdesk*

I'm too angry to be really effective at this, but he'll remember this call. (I suppose kudos to him for sticking it out as long as he did).

Good for you!! And hopefully he'll remember in a way that makes him at least look into this.
