I would also hope there are safeguards, but I know this has already happened to some people. So if there are any safeguards, they don't work.

People have been sanctioned for not showing up to appointments they didn't know they had because the DWP had fucked up their address. People have been declared fit for work despite being terminally ill. One man was told to quit his cancer treatments because they were interfering with his ability to look for work/do workfare.

Basically, the system has ceased to be either fair or functional. And people are already dying.
