    There’s been so many of these threads this week. No one knows what may or may not happen yet. Until then everything remains as it is now. We also have a General Election this year…

    Hi @joeythesloth, welcome to the community. I can understand that it's worrying to hear about, but nobody is at risk at the moment. Everything is all still in consultation so it's difficult to say whether any of the proposals will go ahead or not or when things might happen. As Poppy says, all could change again with the general election, but we'll be keeping everyone informed as we find out more about the government's plans over the next few months. I hope you'll find the community friendly and helpful :)

    Been a difficult evening with news on about the Conservative Party’s proposed change to disabled people’s benefits. Please God they’ll get booted out at the General Election x

    I totally understand your concern @joeythesloth but please try not to worry too much, it's currently all just ideas.
