Amaya_Ringo, "The DWP as an organisation has too much power, basically. There is no regulator. Most other bodies have regulators to ensure checks and balances, but the DWP deals with a huge number of vulnerable people and there is nobody to ensure they do it properly. Without a complete overhaul of the DWP, breaking it down and rebuilding it with these checks and balances, any policy that comes from that department is probably going to be unfit for purpose :/ Just the idea of giving such an organisation more responsibility or ability to monitor or intrude into people's lives is quite terrifying because who is there to ensure safeguarding targets are met?"
DWP intends to swallow HMRC fairly soon, I think. The ending of Contribution-Based benefits isn't getting much attention but this is massive for working-age citizens. It is truly terrifying.

secretsquirrel,
I said "I don't know what hold she has over Keir Starmer or indeed the Labour Party.
The public has lapped up the anti-Starmer narrative like they did the anti-EU narrative."
Perhaps I didn't make clear that she has also double-crossed Keir Starmer. You seem convinced the solution is to get rid of him. Be careful what you wish for!

Thank you for sharing, I really enjoyed listening to that. I’d heard speculation about tensions, but this clearly points to real trouble in paradise!

I thought the wca for lcwra is getting left the same until it's abolishment in 2028 .... Only then will the pip assessment take it over

I really hope everything works out for you jul1, and you do not lose a penny !! ,
Hoping the same for everyone on here.
None of us should be living under the stress of losing any of the 'PATHETIC PITTANCE ' we get , let's not forget that we literally have to beg and 'jump through hoops' to get the PITTANCE too.
This country is a disgrace and I WILL NEVER VOTE for anybody again.
Much love to you jul1, and everyone else on here, it's been a rough few weeks but we have to carry on fighting. As hard as it is.
MUCH LOVE AND HUGS TO YOU ALL. xxxxx

I've just watched him. How and where does he get all these compelling background stories? He's certainly interesting. Just wondering.🤔

I hope this is legit, I’ve never seen any of his videos before so hope this isn’t fake news as I’ve not seen anywhere written about was he’s talking about

Only then will the pip assessment take it overAs far as I know, reassessments resumed in 2021 but under 2016 rules which raised the threshold for LCWRA qualification by removing the LCW component.
Everyone is being moved onto the UC system one way or another. I don't think there was ever meant to be two near-identical 'health assessments'.

I think from journalists . He also mentions fact checkers so it seems reputable to me . He’s a journalist himself so obviously knows people in the know. If it’s true I wish it would all come out and finish him .

I’ve watched a few of his videos and he seems legit . I read the same in the papers this morning, apparently it’s information from a book that’s been written about him .

I have clearly wasted my time trying to answer your question. Cheers.

I hope it’s true! I’ve never personally trusted journalists without solid evidence to back it up, so if something positive comes from it for our joint cause, I will always welcome it. Best wishes.
