IS INANE DUNCAN SMITH A MURDERER?

Have you seen these figures released today about the number of sick and disabled benefit claimants who died shortly after being found fit for work between December 2011 and February 2014?

2650!!

2650 in just over 2 years!!

This truly is a national scandal.

The Bedroom Tax and sanctions were unfair and outrageous.

But is this murder?

And adds to the toll from those murdered by the LCP?

And all to save money to bail out the bankers.

More than 2,500 sick and disabled benefit claimants have died after being found 'fit for work' in just two years, shock figures reveal today.

The Tories have finally released the total - burying it under immigration figures - after 250,000 furious people signed a petition calling on them to end the cover-up.

Iain Duncan Smith's officials tried to stop them being released in full, mounting a legal challenge to publish only 'age-standardised' figures instead.

The stand-off saw him launch a blistering attack on Labour MPs including Debbie Abrahams, who've been demanding the figures for months.

But he's now performed a U-turn and issued the devastating figures today.

They show 2,650 benefit claimants died shortly after being found 'fit for work' between December 2011 and February 2014.
