I think our only hope is this gets drawn out with the House of Lords ping pong . At least that way they would have the OBR assessment released and they’d have to defend the amount of poverty they’ll be causing

I just signed the petition "Scrap dangerous disability benefit reforms" and wanted to ask if you could add your name too.
This campaign means a lot to me and the more support we can get behind it, the better chance we have of succeeding. You can read more and sign the petition Here:
Thank you!
(Apologies if already shared)

I ask myself 'Is there anyone out there who is on our side?' It'll be interesting to see how Labour will do in the council elections next week.

all 3 main party’s against us . Unbelievable. I’m really hoping Labour back benchers realise that they will be voted out unless they get rid of Starmer and reeves / Kendall. They may not care about us but they’ve waited 14 years to get into power, they must know they’re finished with starmer

A letter from your GP is key supporting evidence. An assessment is supposed to consider all supporting evidence. Yes. They can contact your GP should they have further questions.

I've just sent my re-assessment off yesterday , I ticked yes to sharing my medical evidence, I am really stressed , its going to be a long wait , I heard five months for a decision . I also have the grant people coming today as my house is a health hazard , if offered a grant we are taking it regardless of the dwp decision , its making me ill , so with waiting for another award to be given, living in a house full of damp and rotten floorboards and if the benefits changes go ahead we would lose the house , but what can we do other than accept the grant my health is bad enough and this is all adding to it .

maybe he is realising the severity of his mistake . I do hope if I lose pip there will be another benefit I can claim or i lose it all . It's making me very ill . I can't sleep properly and cpap mahcine is showing 27 events which means I stop breathing 27 time an hour while I sleep and all because of anxiety and the stress right now .

Hi all,
Just to let you know, that I, and ADMIN, are on everyones case 24/7, 365 days a year, and the extra 1 every 4 years as a leap year.
they work in the background, and where possible DO, give direction as to what you should and you should have not only financially but in MEDICAL CARE. Not so much as "you need to see a doctor about that." as this is done by the NHS (the real ones) but to make sure that anyone struggling to get their heads around every changes that is imposed on us, but, to make sure that all our voices are heard.
Believe me they are everything but quiet from where I am. always post questions here and also invite friends to join, whether they are working or not, Disabled or long term sick, as we have other catagories here as well, its just at this time because of the "green paper" and the "Discussions which are ongoing about the proposed changes" some here (ADMIN) are frying bigger fish.
This is where you come in. It is by you showing that a reform for the Disabled or Sick must be a show of how to go forward, not to limit the amount of care and finance you may get to support another benefit that has lack of funds.
With that in Mind:
My meeting today at the Tribunal when according to plan, in so much as it made statments of what a tribunal can do and what they can enforce. And it also showed that when a directional notice to produce a certain document of a certain date. That by not doing so now gives me grounds to finish what I have started.
My first ask. I want a copy of the recorded secession, which will be sent to me via a link so I can hear the full proceeding. This I can then join to the Decision Notice, and check that the information comming from the court on behalf of Secretary of State is also correct.
ONE, of my biggest bug bares, is when a PDF. document is produced. b) What is needed to amend the "original" document. c) Should you need to see this before any changes are made. d) How it is logged so that others looking at your file can also see the amendment made.
This is also assuming that you have given permission for them to view its content by ANY government department.
This is only starters.
Should you disagree with the content of the change (which should be sent to you to sign that you need to agree before any changes are made) This can be done electronically by e mail and is excepted by all government departments, as long as the reference number of the claim is shown in the subject, and a little note to say I have seen and agree to its content and can confirm my signature as correct.
This also is used when a claw back of benefits is required, the same as any back payments can also be sent.
ONE, other point, admin and myself (especially me) only give advice, the final decision to go with or not the points I have raised IS YOURS. I certainly will not feel offended if you disagree with my opinion, and as stated I welcome all comment made Good or Bad, (well not bad but different) as this is how I go forward with what I do.
Which also by the way, I have a meeting tonight to present the Tribunal Judicial Review of my case, and what I asked for and what I actually got. This meeting is in the upper tiers of what I do so when I state facts to them, they react, again an opinion of my presentation and requests, and which direction I am heading.
This for another post when the rest of the information comes back.

Angela Rayner says on YouTube "the rest is politics" 1 year ago video 12.4 sec in video
"I didn't really understand how mental health could really debilitate people"
So why Angela are you going to put people through all this with your party changes. Or is it now you are in power you couldn't care less.

Hi again,
This is not correct under the Data Protection Act. You are allowed to see any document held by any one, government or not. As this is how a system evolves. This is why you are allowed to have a copy of the assessment completed by the assessor, before it is sent to the Decision Maker since the decision maker can agree with the report or not? Not really since they hired the assessor because of his medical background and that they are registered on a British Medical Register TO PRACTICE, before the assessment takes place. You have to remember that you are sending in Support letters and letters on Headed paper that is entered on your medical history as support, why don't you ask for your next assessment to be entered onto your medical history? (I have been told off before about this, but.) They cannot enter the report because they are not registered. I welcome any assessment by anyone as long as they know what they are doing,and never refused an assessment from anyone, including the assessment providers hired by the DWP and PIP to assess me.

What about being transfered back onto Income Support or Job Seekers? After all the NHS say your disabled its DWP that say your not. So send me back to Job Seekers so I can earn some decent money.
I went from £68,000 in THREE months with what I was doing to £16800 a YEAR. They seemed to have given me a 1 and the lost a ZERO some where in the calculation?

I watched her bbc interview with a disabled woman before the election. She sounded very compassionate and empathetic towards the disabled. Came across very well. On the day when demented Kendall gave her speech regarding cuts there was Raynor sitting behind her nodding her head . I did read this morning though on a comment section ( maybe B and W) that rayner Lucy Powell and ed mulligans have threatened to quit if it goes ahead . How true this is I don’t know.

Hi onebigvoice, I don't really get your reply to secretsquirrel. She asked about it being legally challenged in court as benefits and work said it can't?
