    Good luck at the opticians . Take time to rest afterwards. I think we all need to try and do something nice to take our minds off this for a while. This constant stress isn’t doing any of us any good

    What would be ideal if they left it as it is and tried to put through would definitely be voted against so we don't want thier little tweaks they know this won't get through we need big changes not little tokens of BS

    I agree ego driven but who would have thought we'd get so much support and I believe people are not fooled anymore they say all this and when budget comes round they will withdraw those statements

    With much respect most of us are starting from here I'm clueless about politics and all any of us are trying to halt or get this watered down what more can we do me personally it's a good thing I don't know about the past so I can just focus on now everyone has different levels of understanding and working together as much as we can might be 10 years later in your eyes and I understand when you say so many of our rights gone god can I see that big time but what do we do just give up if we have a voice use it some people don't have a voice with your understanding of welfare state maybe you could contact mps

    ashmere, "It is an alarming thought that this is the man who has already begun work on rewriting the assessment criteria for PIP."

    His parliamentary career has been spent in the department. He is terrified of being found jointly responsible for thousands of benefit-related deaths as he bl**dy well should be!

    "with your understanding of welfare state maybe you could contact mps"

    You don't think I did 10 years ago?

    😂

    Who's telling you to give up? No-one.

    Like others on here, all this not knowing what they will do, saying they will amend stuff, then changing their minds, one day good news then next bad. It's really beginning to mess with my head and I thought I was quite strong willed. I had to phone mt doctor this morning as I thought I was having a breakdown last night, can't sleep, eat, or even think clearly at the moment, this government are a disgrace and should be held to account criminally in the future. And as for that Timms bloke, what a complete evil monster he is to walk round a disabled person who'd collapsed with no regard or empathy.

    I have written to my mp and stated that I no longer care if he's for or against these cuts, I'll be voting the whole shower of them out next election and I told him how poorly all this has made me, but to my advantage as with any luck I'll now get this dreaded 4 point thing as my condition has gotten worse, mostly due to them. They are evil betond belief and I hope Karma ruins their lives too.

    Sir Stephen Timms openly talks about his Christian faith, and he is Labour’s Faith Envoy and a former chair of Christians on the Left.

    I want to know what Bible he reads as it clearly states to show compassion towards the afflicted. 

    “We were desperate to get over to Timms that the cuts in benefits won’t ‘cure’ disabled people and suddenly make us employable.

    “Coupled with the cuts in the Access to Work budget, which helps disabled people to work, it shows that the cuts were never about getting disabled people into work.”

    I hope people understand this last part of this cut and paste, Labour knows that these cuts have nothing, NOTHING to do with helping people into work, they're just cuts that's all. What a nasty, despicable, cold and callous government, they make Thatcher look like Mother Theresa.

    It’s not even cuts due to lack of money. They’re throwing money around like it’s confetti . 5billion compared to what they’re throwing around is peanuts
