I am actually part of the group that was Auto-Rejected by AI, it was scandal and the former government is getting investigated for it atm. I applied for Universal Credit just now, hopefully that'll help.

New style ESA is a contributions based benefit only and you will not be migrated over to UC. (unless you're claiming other benefits such as Tax credits or housing benefit)
UC could also top up your income, if there's entitlement.
Your ESA will continue as normal but be deducted in full from any UC entitlement.
If you live with a partner you'll need to claim as a couple and your joint circumstances will be taken into consideration. You can use a benefits calculator to check entitlement.
As you're in the Support Group for ESA then you'll be entitled to the LCWRA element from the start of your claim. You will not need another assessment.

I have applied to UC now since i wouldn't be able to afford survival without my separated partner of 10 years's income. I have also just now applied for council tax reduction, whether 100% for the ton of disabilities i have or for 25% for single occupancy, will be up to my local council to decide.

Council Tax reduction and council tax discount, such as the single person discount are completely different. Single person discount isn't means tested but council tax reduction is.

Either way, on my council's website the application process for both is unified.

I hope so too, at the very least to get an apology out of them, cause this destroyed my 10 years strong marriage.

Ah I feel you 9 year relationship over sucks

You had one for 9? BTW I had a check again, I did apply for the discount rather than the reduction. It's better that way anyway, as I can't cope with another ridiculous assessment, it's just too much.

Relationship eneded after 9 years oh yes the assessments are soul destroying

Hi everyone, just a reminder to keep the topic to UC Migration please. We want you all to chat but sometimes it might be better to start a new discussion so this one doesn't get too long 😊
