    He is always doing it, he did it to me, don’t know why he is still on this forum, I avoid him at all costs and don’t answer his messages.

    Well said mike, reading other posts it come across that many posters like myself see and hear from claimants who give the impression that they are not as bad as they are portraying. As we don’t live with them 24/7 it’s only a snap shot of what maybe their life is really like. Mike you have worked, been with people who have severe MH problems while most of us have I expect have only seen MH patients on their weekly shopping trip with their Carer. We have to be more educated and view people’s conditions with compassion and not jump to the wrong conclusion. Easy to do so we all must keep an open mind.

    Hi @mikehughescq

    Like your posts on this thread.

    Also support the fact the you report the abuse aimed at you.

    Blind ignorance has no place, in our community, best left to right wing media.

    Sorry to say, but I must admit this has been an interesting thread and it's better than watching Coronation Street or EastEnders and TV in general...

    Sorry @Sam_Scope for posting my reply.❤️

    I think we can have interesting debates with very differing opinions, but this is a safe space for everyone and I hope all members can remember that they can put their opinions across without being confrontational.

    This is a public forum where anyone can comment in a reasonable way.  It is not a private consultation forum such as a one to one in an office setting.

    Yes @Matilda hope your well, and you also right everyone has the right to speak and give their reasons and opinions.

    By the way Matilda have you heard anything at all since you've had your ongoing PIP, I haven't, and still awaiting what the (light touch review) is at the ten year point which they the DWP were going to publish at the end of this summer?

    Hi @Government_needs_reform

    Hope you are well.

    No, I've heard nothing and hope I don't for another 8 years when the 10 years is up!

    I haven't heard anything about the light touch review.
