the justice journals host believes these reforms will be found unlawful by the supreme court , i watched her today .

I also watched her today but I don’t understand what she means. She said originally the 4 point rule was for lcwra/ health only but now they’ve included it for pip. I thought the 4 points was always intended to be for pip as you had to get pip to claim over/ health element. I’m confused by this .

I too am confused , but i had a glimmer of hope when she mentioned the supreme court hopefully finding the changes unlawful .
I think there are challenges being prepared behind the scenes, and they are not letting enemy know until ready to pounce.

hi Sarah ,
If you look up Starmer taking Blair to court regarding benefits for asylum seekers Starmer won due to it being unlawful to leave someone without shelter and food . Well this must cover us too as without benefits we won’t be able to eat and pay bills etc . I’m not sure justice journals is correct about the 4 points rule though as it’s the first time I’ve heard it regarding just lcwra without pip

yes, but I think its made to confuse , everything seems to not make sense, I mean where are these jobs coming from for us ? there are no jobs .

people on the video comments said the same but she’s adamant that it was lcwra/ health element but now they’ve said it’ll cover pip too . That doesn’t make sense as I thought without pip you can’t claim lcwra / health element in future

why not try to get healthy job seekers on basic uc jobs first ? This is clearly cost cutting but they think they’ve been cleverer than the Tory’s by holding a consultation ( well part consultation) and admitting they want to save taxpayers money whereas the Tory’s lied about it . It’s still discrimination though .

I've read that and you are right , he will have this thrown back at himself, he seems to be making such a fool of himself, i suspect he is being controlled , but who is the puppet master , all of his MP's are just reading from a script from what I can see , they stammer and um ah and cannot answer . 🤔

Omg did you see reeves when they questioned her ? I felt embarrassed for her as she stammered throughout her answers. It shows how he has no morals as he fought for others human rights but now is against the same rights as he’s in a different job. I don’t think he cares as he has other plans for his career after his term is up . He’s literally alienated all his voters so he must know he’ll never get voted in again. I really hope the Labour Party oust him to save the party as they must surely know they will be voted out .

It’s clearly stated in points 140–142 on page 90 of the large-print version of the ‘Pathways to Work’ Green Paper proposal (see attached screenshot) that the proposed 4-point daily living eligibility is aligned to PIP. So it seems they may have overlooked this information and got confused.
Best Wishes!

Did you see reeves answering her questions? She was dreadful. Umming and ahhhhing , didn’t know what to say .

Because she's being controlled , reading from a script, being made a fool like starmer is too.

exactly that 100%. I watched Starmer being interviewed by journalists on YouTube and you could clearly see him trying to remember the answer.

thank you . I thought this but the person is apparently ex dwp so not sure how she got her information wrong

These two petitions seem to be gaining traction and could do even better with some of our support. Please consider signing and sharing them:
Reform the recent changes to disability benefits by Lynda Denman
TAX WEALTH – DON'T CUT DISABILITY SUPPORT by Richard Burgon , Labour MP3 -
It definitely seems like there’s been a serious mix-up in the discussion you watched.
According to the Green Paper proposals, the Work Capability Assessment (WCA) would be abolished-meaning there would no longer be LCW or LCWRA under the proposed changes.So yes, it does seem like the video may have spread some misinformation, which only adds to the confusion and distress already being felt by so many disabled and vulnerable people.

Haha, the trio-Starmer, Kendall, and Reeves really don’t seem to like being questioned, do they? Sometimes it’s hard not to notice their faces change colour under pressure!

Truly awesome post, my friend-that’s exactly who we are. Such an inspiring post! 👏👏
We can get this changed in our favour.
We’ve faced so many battles before, and one thing’s for sure… we never give up!✌️
