I read through some of the readings from Lords it said they will protect exsisting claimants who are used to a certain level of support and will find that particularly difficult to readjust if that where to change ok I read that but how do you prove that ? I'm so disappointed even shows if it wasn't a money bill it would have gone through and without sounding negative gives me no hope for pip sorry I thought regret motion would of applied its such a rollercoaster I do not trust them to apply all these new laws to exsisting claimants at some point pls correct me if I'm wrong and if anyone else read and thinks different

Looks like not one of Labour even voted for the regret motion? The threats worked well on them didn't they… assuming I understood this right.

Hi all.
I wish I had a better understanding of politics, but I actually watched a lot of the lord's episode yesterday on TV about u. c. and I couldn't help but think it was a lesson for about hours of everyone praising each other and stating what wonderful and enduring politicians they each and everyone of them are, interspersed with the very occasional points of uc which was the reason they were there in the 1st place! What on earth was it all about? is this what we spend our money on? to give them people a voice? and what do they do with that privelage? absolutely nowt from where I was sitting. I got the distinct feeling starmer and his toadies have deflected a whole nation.this is an exercise in manipulating a whole group of people, make it look like he's the good guy by conceding nothing, but making it look like loads he's conceded, thereby gaining everything he intended to get before he started this debacle. typical right wing manoeuvre if I'm not mistaken. that's my rant for today, I'm going to sit back now for next few hours and watch my fingernails grow. Ta very much for listening.

I have a bit of a concern with regards to them tying the payments to diagnosis because even though I have had a lot of conditions diagnosed, I also have a lot that aren't, this is because as my health conditions became worse, I found it harder to ask for help and not only that, the last medical centre that I was registered with were less than helpful so I would get fobbed off a lot which in turn didn't help me.
My other concern is the substantial risk rule, I was moved to ESA SG under that rule and it would be cruel to tighten it, remove it or whatever else they are thinking about doing with it.
I have written to my local MP with a list of concerns. I did forget to mention carers though, my son is my carer, I'd be lost without him.

All I can see during all of this is that they mean to make it as difficult and as brutal as possible, no matter what.
The hate campaign in the media is also despicable but it always has been.
