I believe they are catherine
I’m sick and tired of LBC too , all the presenters except O’Brian and Devon have been pushing an agenda about disabled people and welfare too . Nick Ferrari the absolute worst .
def a hate campaign
I've noticed that people on a few different websites now are saying about taking money from the welfare budget and giving it to the defence budget instead.
None of it's official though, and a lot of it's just clickbait.
It is sheer scaremongering and best to ignore it unless an official announcement is made
they want to shame us constantly, sick and tired of it all
Why are DWP visiting people in homes ? This is terrible . I agree that they’ve given people ptsd , how many of us are terrified of them calling us or getting letter ? That’s def some kind of trauma . Hope ur ok Catherine .
if they came to my home I’d lock them in a room and call police - my MH can be really unstable when people come into my space as well . I’m not having good day , haven’t been out the front door in 6 days and been in bed since then. It’s nice and sunny here but all curtains closed coz don’t wanna see it .
@letitbe
Its on the
benefitsandwork
Site under the news section. about them intending to do home visits regarding universal credit.
ok thx luvpink
Yes thats what it implies.
i would of thought if you cant go to the centre they will arrange to do a home visit to assist you to fill out the forms nothing sinister cant do either lose your payments
thx Catherine , my sleeps been really bad too and I know that makes everything worse . Hopefully I’ll have a decent sleep tonight and be able to go out tomorrow. Hope u have a restful evening .
I know having these people at home would really destabilise lots of us . did u read that NHS are trialling comedy to treat depression ? Unbelievable
I wouldn't want them in my home.
I wouldn't want a f2f at a centre either.
Last time I went to a centre a few years ago, the paramedic lied and I had my mobility reduced from high to standard.
I put in MR and got it overturned.
Its disgusting some of them treat us like that.
It caused me so much stress and anxiety.
When I was reassessed for esa last year it was done by phone.
To be honest, I was very upset by Mitchell's statement. Yes, supporting Ukraine is important, but not at the expense of people who are already struggling to make ends meet. Social security is not a luxury, but a basic need for many people. First, you need to take care of your citizens, especially the most vulnerable.
I know I’d be the same , hope you’re ok Catherine
I’m so sick and tired of it all , this government are turning out to be worse
If you look at foreign aid budget article in the Sun. It says millions for a shrimp farm in India, poetry for prisoners abroad etc. Foreign aid should be for disasters not this rubbish. The money should also be used for this make believe 22 million black hole. Thousands spent also on a photographer following starmer, milliband and raynor around for their image. Honestly I am scared that I be left with nothing to live on, plus I have pets
The value must be greater than or equal to 1.
