    Forgive me if I have missed it, when are the changes for LCWRA and PIP coming into action?

    Thanks in advance

    Now every news article is about PIP because of Labour meaning more people will apply for it.

    President Trump is doing what he promised , whether people agree or not , he's keeping his promise . Our government lied in their manifesto and even worse what they are doing to us the disabled .

    A little more about the Work and Pensions Select Committee inquiry into the (so called) Welfare Reform Proposals

    don’t make me laugh please.

    You can think whatever you want about Trump, I can’t care less but he’s a compulsive liar.

    That’s a fact. Not an opinion, not a MSM. A FACT

    My MP isn't on the list of those intending to vote against disability benefit cuts.

    He is Liebour

    Ed Miliband was leading the opposition 2010-2015

    Corbyn 2015-2020

    Those changes agreed before Corbyn’s time?

     Yes, (and before Starmer's time!) by the following amended ESA regulations.

    Title: The Employment and Support Allowance( Limited Capability for Work and Limited Capability for Work-Related Activity) (Amendment) Regulations 2011:

    Iain Duncan Smith Government posts

    Secretary of State for Work and Pensions Department for Work and Pensions 12 May 2010 - 19 March 2016

    IDS wrote those amendments in preparation for his Welfare Reform Act 2012.

    and if Trump (Republican) and Liebour don’t tackle the problem of inequality soon, they’ll both be out of a job next election.

    Search UK Parliament to see any MP's Parliamentary career - Committee memberships, voting records, Opposition posts and Government posts - to get a flavour of their interests.

    Timms and Abrahams have always known how IDS reformed (deformed) the LCW/LCWRA rules in 2011.

    See also Raynor, Reeves, Kendall, Cooper, Reynolds..

    Starmer has surrounded himself with ex-W&P Ministers and advisors perhaps unwittingly. Those Labour Ministers could not risk Corbyn and the then Shadow Chancellor, John McDonnell, getting into power and exposing their dirty deeds.
