A person on #benefits responds to #JeremyHunt's toxic pronouncements:
'people need compassion, especially when times are hard – as is so often the case when you’re on benefits. But what do we get instead? Being constantly kicked when we’re down just pushes us further away from society; making us feel excluded and undeserving. It feels as if the poorest are just easy targets; who politicians return to again & again, and especially when they think there’s a vote in it'!
