This is when we started to hear about war veterans starving to death, disabled people being pushed out of their homes by bailiffs in their wheelchairs, a man having a heart attack during a DWP assessment being sanctioned for failing to complete said assessment, a man with cancer being told he has to make a choice between looking for work and receiving benefits to live on OR treatment for his cancer etc. The amount of deaths has shot up (including suicides).
