New Labour: all your bills are belong to us
It's like an April fools joke, or the Twilight Zone...
It's official
New Labour declare all out war on any notion of privacy in the UK
CREDIT card records and fuel bills are to be checked in a blitz on benefit cheats.
Spending, or fuel use, way over that possible on benefits will trigger a fraud probe...
Under a data-sharing plan, benefits staff will have powers to inspect credit agency and utility company records. Every time a claimant is referred to a credit reference agency there will be an investigation.
Staff will make home visits to check for signs of cheating.
Fraud minister James Plaskitt said: "We will use everything in our legal armoury to keep lowering fraud in the system.
"Most people are legitimate, but we have to defeat the cheats on behalf of all law-abiding tax payers who don't see why they should pay for others who do not need it." (What about war, EU etc ? -jultra)
The Department of Work and Pensions will publish the strategy today. Shami Chakrabarti, of Liberty, branded it "outrageous".
She said: "Ministers are treating all benefits claimants as if they are criminal suspects.
"Today they are going for the poor, tomorrow they will be wanting access to all credit card bills.
"It is disproportionate to invade the privacy of millions to catch a few cheats - the Government should be ashamed."
The strategy document, Reducing Fraud in the Benefit System, also reveals plans to use lie detectors on telephone claimants.
A blitz on incapacity benefit claimants who have gone back to work is planned later this year.
Ministers are considering moving GPs into benefit offices to check on those people claiming to be sick.
Ok guys, we've got a real problem on our hands. How do you deal with it ? I don't know anymore. New Labour need removing, castrating. Blair needs impeaching and hanging and somehow I guess everyone has to work towards that end. The UK is living under a totally corrupt rogue regime that is out of control, I think there is little doubt about that. Easy target at first, the unemployed, easy initial criteria, benefit fraud. Maybe there is some clever political angle here, maybe they now fully understand how doomed their ID Card scheme is, how it is and will continue to be rejected.
Perhaps they are trying to put people off signing on at all. I don't know to be honest.
Never in isolation, these strategies are part of a package of hell, to degrade, to digitally enslave. We are dealing with technological and administrative slavery. Old fashioned slavery is bad, but modern techno-serfdom is 'acceptable' to fight fraud, to fight terror, to make us 'competitive' in the global age. We can add today's shameful debacle to the list (by no means complete) of ID Cards, DNA Databases, data retention, medical record spying, RIP and so on.
New Labour are obsessed with data sharing, with data collection, with databases, with redefining what privacy means. We can not let them. We have a responsibility to end this.
