I'm confused.Someone mentioned and I can't remember where that only sickness benefits would be affected not disability benefits.I am on New Style Esa and U.c and was previously in the support group when I migrated.So which of the two am I classed as?

I'm not sure either of those are official terms.
PIP is likely to be classed as a disability benefit.
ESA and LCW/LCWRA could be classed as illness benefits.
Both could be affected by government plans in the future, but there are no plans in place yet.
