Yes i know who you are talking about, she is scaremongering and stressing people out, i have seen her video’s on tiktok. She does have a ulterior motive she is trying to sell her business bundles and get people to start their own businesses.

Today she said in her live that they are scraping WCA and PIP will be paid in vouchers. So people will need to find a job or you won’t have any money to live on. She comes across as very aggressive when she is speaking and its very distressing to watch.

She has some beef with DWP and thinks she knows everything because she used to work for them. We don’t know what the DWP are going to do as the government haven’t decided, so where is she getting her intel from?

I have had to block her so she doesn’t come up on my tiktok for you page. It too stressful.

I think this may have come from something the conservative government had planned. I did see a government website when I was looking for information on LCWRA back pay (see below). It said that they were planning to reduce the amount of people on LCWRA and move them to LCW. But it also said that it was under the conservative government and not this one.

I think we just have to wait and see what happens and deal with the consequences if and when changes happen. I honestly don't have the capacity to have any more things to worry about, that might not even happen.

You need to block her and just wait to hear what the Government say.

Tiktok or other social media are not reliable sources of information.

People post opinions disguised as facts.

I would be very sceptical of anything posted on Tiktok @ella1992. It is not a good source of information and the people on the platform are trying to say sensational things to get reactions and views. I would recommend only getting such information from reliable places!

I'd suggest organisations such as the BBC, RightsNet, Benefits and Work for news on updates about benefits and welfare. Just a few examples.
