    By April, Food etc would have sky rocketed. Though any help is some help

    All benefit increases should be introduced from as soon as it was announced they would be brought into line with the increased interest rates. 

    It was a struggle enough being on benefits prior to all the increases. Treated like second class citizens and having to jump through hoops and dance a dance to receive what you're entitled too. 

    Payments being lowered even though you're getting worse, I never knew it was possible to become un-disabled

    Benefit increases have always applied from April. I can't see anything changing regarding that anytime soon.

    Neither can I which I poor tbh.  Then again it doesn't effect the MPs in any slight way whatsoever.

    By the time April comes around so many people are going to in such unimaginable struggles or sadly no longer with us as they are having to choose between heating or eating. Which in this day and age is an absolute travesty

    It is, indeed, an absolute travesty @krippled. It makes me feel really sad  :(

    At least we do have a benefits system unlike India or many other places

    The date for pensions & benefits to increase in line with CPI from the previous September is April.  Until April, there is no entitlement to increases.
    I would also argue that we are not treated like second class citizens.  The government has taken the country further into debt so that they can provide help to those who need it.
    I only qualify for £150 because of PIP, but I`m not belly aching about it; I`m really grateful for that small amount.

    I agree with you.... 
    Some people expect way more than they should receive and would never be happy
