Hi and welcome to the community

What you have heard is pure speculation and media hype

The last I heard on news last night is that benefits will be increased in April at rate of 10% and same increase in nmw

Nobody knows till it is announced on Thursday

I would try and think 8f other things and put it out of your mind

The SoS has confirmed there are no plans to means test PIP or DLA.

Hi,

You should ignore the media hype; they work under what is know as "sensationalistic journalism". Or, as I call it, why let the truth get in the way of a good story.
