Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'A must-read exposé of one of Britain's biggesthidden scandals' -Frances Ryan'Definitive proof of how government austerity hasn't just harmed disabled people, it has killed them' - John McDonnell MPIn the early 2010s, reports began to emerge of deaths linked to a government department. Suicid…e notes, coroners' reports, and research by disabled activists pointed to failings within the Department for Work and Pensions - the DWP - the government body responsible for the disability benefits system.As years passed, and austerity tightened its grip, the death toll mounted, and an even more disturbing picture emerged: bureaucracy, politicians, and the private sector had combined over thirty years to reckless, deadly effect.For the last decade, disabled journalist John Pring has meticulously pieced together how the DWP ignored pleas to correct fatal flaws in the social security system and covered up its role in the deaths of hundreds, if not thousands, of disabled people. Having spent years researching the heartbreaking stories of twelve individuals who died, he describes how their bereaved families have fought for justice and accountability.
