        @val_hudson @BBCBreaking it's not the contract is it Val, it's the criteria the DWP set that are partly to blame, we'd only get another Atos

        @MichaelH14 @BBCBreaking indeed. With contract conditions & total price #dwp impose will always be quality control rather than assurance

        @BBCBreaking Good. The way they treated my mother was disgusting & started the long, upsetting process of appeal overruled by a judge.
