Westminster Government Accused Of "Social Murder"

"The study, by Lancaster University’s Dr Chris Grover, observes that the Tory government’s policies are designed to force people into low-paid work by means of a ‘structural violence’ – and observes direct results of government austerity measures and deaths among vulnerable people, including:

  • an additional six suicides for every 10,000 work capability assessments done
  • increasing number of people Britain dying of malnutrition
  • increasing numbers of homeless people dying on the streets or in hostels

The study also states that the government cannot claim any ignorance of the effects of its policies, describing them as ‘known and avoidable’."
