Once again OKDD you are wrong you cannot be registered diasbled if you are just a heroin addict!
In the USA drug/alcohol dependancy is regarded as a disability but not in the UK. To receive Disabilty Living Allowance in the UK you have to fulfil a very rigid and difficult assessment procedure and you have to have been diagnosed with some kind of chronic illness/degenerative/terminal illness that affects your mobility or means you need extra care provided for you.
As with others who have responded to this post you don’t have to be in a wheelchair to be disabled and for you to try and equate heroin addiction to disability is despicable knowing that this site is used by people who have been in transport all their lives, are still involved with it or are just starting out in it.
You sound like a typical tabloid reader who’s views and judgements are made on a daily basis on the back of the cheap tat tabloid you might have just read and BTW I’ll swap my disability with you anyday!!! Uumm thought not Don’t think you’d last a month with it.
People like you are all too quick to judge others against your own limited terms of reference and knowledge of the outside world. God forbid that sometime in the future you get diagnosed with some incurable illness like MS, Rheumatoid Arthritis,Diabetes,Motor Neurone Disease, Leukemia, Stroke, heart attack and million other things that disable the best of drivers for the rest of the lives.
I think you are a narrow minded moron to even try to link heroin addiction to disability within this forum what is your point
Maybe next week when you go to pick up your vehicle and you slip over in the diesel you spilt at the pumps and you bang your head on kerb and then spend weeks in a coma but gain enough memory to remember that you used to drive something like a lorry before
Should you be let back at it because you’re now brain damaged and disabled? Its not a question I can answer but only say that the brain damage seemed to be there before the accident and any disability hadn’t been acknowledged because OKDD might have been a heroin addict.
OKDD you introduced the link between heroin addiction and disability, not that it is true, just hope you don’t become disabled any day in the future because why shouldn’t anyone think you are a heroin addict
that is such a generalisation about someone you don’t know, you don’t know my circumstances or what I know about disabillity.
The people who live down my street actually brag about how they are on DLA and don’t presume I know nothing about DLA.
As for reading the sun you couldn’t be further from the truth, you are the idiot here shouting your mouth off after reading a post and seeing the worst of it.
Why don’t you read the first post properley and see the irony in it.
So DP54 your the ■■■■■■ here. why don’t you crawl back to where you come from and go moan to someone who gives a ■■■■ about your disabillity, I’ve got enough disabled people in my familly to worry about.
Actually you never mentioned your disabillity, I live with disabillity evry day, but the people in my familly who are disabled don’t go on about it and want pity. They get on with there lives and don’t think that other people couldn’t live with it.
So now tell me how the ■■■■ am I wrong again when no-one as every proved that I ever been wrong. Then read the last part of my sig ( anyone who thinks they are better than me) because at the end of the day we all drop our trousers sit on the toilet and have a ■■■■■
