As of next year, the government has given themselves permission to snoop in real time on everyone's bank accounts who receive any benefits, including the pension.

Pretty sure the people did not give our overlords permission for this extremely intrusive overreach into their personal lives.

It's just a precurser to their intrusion on ALL our accounts once CBDCs come into play.

We should be pushing back on this right now, even if you don't get any benefits, you should be appalled on behalf of those who do get benefits that is is allowed.

If you tolerate this, YOU will be next.

They do this sort of thing to see if there's any pushback, before they go further.

There's been no pushback.

I bet 99% of claimants are absolutely legitimate, with just a tiny 1%, if that, being bogus and unwarranted claims.
