I think there’s a foi regarding the 4 points and it broke down who gets a 4 point . From what I read it said 13% of those on enhanced don’t get 4 point and 83% on standard don’t . I just read that if implemented the tweak to enable those on an overall high score to claim pip without 4 points would amount to 200,00 still awarded pip . The amount on enhanced without a 4 point is 209,00

So that would mean instead of accepting 13% a pass without 4? points it’s only 6-7% . In other words majority on enhanced were mostly never going to be affected. But what are the figures for standard as it’s that I think they’re trying to abolish. It’s interesting what you say as my last assessment was two years ago and I can see how I was steered away from scoring a 4? Point but my award was increased. Was that so I wouldn’t appeal ?

According to Whatdotheyknow (the FOI site) - As of January 2025, 54% of people in receipt of the PIP daily living allowance scored a minimum of 4 points.
of 3.7 million total
So - 46% of claimants get fewer than 4 points in daily living !
That's 1.7 Million - who the government want to stop paying.

Apologies, It was AI, but I asked it to fact check it, it was wrong, I looked on Gov.uk site and it said 403, won't be using that again!! Labour will hopefully lose a few more seats very soon (to add to my already cofused state) and get rid of Starmer & Co. Sorry for the unintentional mix up, I'll fact check it myself first next time😊

Hi Charlie,
I think this whole situation is confusing. All different information put out there , even that only 10% of us will be affected. My heads so overloaded right now I’m fatigued and in pain with it all . I certainly wouldn’t put money on any information I share as we never know the real truth , the DWP and Labour won’t allow it x

That will be one off payments like cost of living. Take away about £12,000 a year and give £300

Where did you see this Catherine ? The apparent enhanced claimants not getting a 4 is 13% (apparently) , was this what she meant ?

I wonder if anyone has done the maths on this . 1.7 million people most of who get standard rate how much is that over a year plus lcwra .

about 6.3 billion for the standard rate, don’t know for sure the lwrca, and it’s just in my head so not entirely accurate

So if you add the 13% on enhanced plus those who also claim lcwra the £3.5-£5billion is conservative. If half claim lcwra that’s almost £10b a year without the 13% enhanced. Thanks for adding that up for me Martin
