Rejected petition The Government should sack welfare minister Lord Freud

More details

Welfare minister Lord Freud seemed to suggest that Disabled People aren't worth as much as others by saying that employers should be free to pay them less than the minimum wage. This is clearly disability discrimination and we believe that this is not an appropriate view for a welfare minister to hold therefore we call on the government to sack Lord Freud.
