(it’s not satire – it’s Simon Stevens!)
So-called disability ‘activist’ and ‘consultant’ Simon Stevens – who recently wrote an article for the Huffington Post praising ATOS while conveniently forgetting to mention he worked for them – has been dropped by a charity after they decided he was too offensive.
Here’s an article with the story in more depth:

“Bit slow some of these disability charities aren’t they”, no only their ceo’s who conversely are quick to act when taking on unpaid workers.

Many of his messages have been aimed at campaigners protesting at the government’s welfare cuts and reforms, particularly those angry at the standard of the work capability assessments (WCAs) carried out by Atos Healthcare.
He told one activist: “Get off your computer, how dare you use a computer and claim [you are] unable to work you fake git.”
And he told another: “I can guess you are either fat, abused alcohol or drugs with your many illnesses.”
He also tweeted that “only the fake disabled care about ATOS” and told his Twitter followers that disability living allowance was “zero to do with independent living, just free cars”.
Much of his anger has been reserved for the grassroots network Disabled People Against Cuts (DPAC), on one occasion saying – in response to the claim that “Atos kills” through its work on the WCA – that it was “DPAC who murders disabled people with their lies and hatred for disabled people”.
He also accused DPAC of celebrating suicides by publicising the deaths of disabled people who they say killed themselves as a result of the government’s “fitness for work” regime.
shame -such a nice boy-not–when i was on twatter he was running an anti DPAC blog….

It is sickening that he holds himself out as some sort of specialist consultant while belittling and attacking other disabled people. He seems to think only those in a wheelchair are disabled and that the rest of us are fake disabled people.
