How can they get away with it all holding these meeting and controlling the questions which are mainly about getting people to work so if you get no pip you get no health benefits I prey that people are taking them to court because tories will help them pass this

They are absolutely .....they have no shame why bother even if they say we had an open forum to listen to the people's side !! As usual all on thier terms don't they relize how all of this actually looks everyday they are showing thier total disrespect and dislike for us bet they thought we would all go insane running to the hills never to be seen again well I got news for them WE have had enough I think I just email my mp again after 16 emails and a voice message!! And shock horror no response called him out in voicemail I said I am asking a simple question do you agree with the welfare cuts and if you do you will lose alot of votes

No these aids help with your husbands assistance so if you use stair life does your husband have to assist you and when at top assist you again and with a bath hoist correct me if I'm wrong your husband would definitely need to help with that putting you in bath and operation the hoist getting you in and out so if these aids are to help you and your carer with daily living tasks that maybe you can't use yourself without assistance?

just watched Kendall at this 40million launch in West London. Apparently she knows that over 1million disabled people can and want to work, she said she has spoken to so many of us and wants to help us, she also said that she still thinks we are taking the Micky and fraud is rife.

Yes she took dwp to court I think it's her tone and makes my hearth jump no I can't listen it's like if you claim PIP you better pay attention to this

morning Catherine,
I expected her to know what she’s talking about being ex dwp etc. but I’m more confused now. She mentioned another site you can join ( obviously for a fee) to get advice and help with claims so I think this is her business rather than just helping people.

If you still are struggling to email your MP for any reason or worried about not being able to word it in exactly the right way for greatest effect, as I've been doing, here's what I consider a truly excellent template on the Benefits and Work forum. I hope that it might help some of you. 🤞😊
Letter template to MPs about green paper - Benefits and Work Forum
Good Luck!! 🍀 👍

morning Sarah,
It was the justice journals. She’s ex dwp and took them to court . Her last two videos have confused me regarding the 4 points rule . And ppl in her comments said the same thing . She reckons the 4 point rule was just for calling lcwra and in the last couple of days they’ve extended it to pip. I thought it was always for pip and health element then added . I think she charges ppl for her help as she mentions joining up and she takes on your case .

Not everyone knows what are meant by abbreviations.

Yes I know but as I said when people use abbreviations not everyone knows what they mean.
I find it happens a lot on this forum.

Hi noonebelieves, glad you took yourself over there. my linking skills seem to have taken a nosedive 😁
B&W have helped me so much, I reached out to them roughly 12 years ago and their help was impressive. The guides are a must have, for all that can of course afford the yearly membership of around £20. After joining you do get a reduction after so long, I only pay £11 a year now as they give discount codes, they really do try to keep the cost to the subscriber to a minimum. The relevant and up to date info plus the guides are highly recommended. I like that they have volunteers who have worked in the field for years who when you post a question will help with your individual circumstances or if they cant they will point you in a direction you could perhaps try. I know I am praising them a lot here but I only ever give praise where praise is due.
I agree that not being able to find past posts on SCOPE is a bit of a pain, scrolling through pages and pages of posts trying to remember where we posted can be irksome at times but that's just a tiny niggle, I like the community here but the times I can post is limited by my illness.
I hope folk fill in that questionnaire if they are able, the results could give a good indication of the financial implications of the ''Pathways to work'' nonsense and provide a reasonable ''impact statement''.

@secretsquirrel1 , I agree with you about the justice journal video. I've stopped watching her , she made me feel really down . You're right she made no sense .
Just because she is an ex dwp employee doesn't make her an expert , so I am not watching her now .
I watch the dynamic duo video's , I'm still looking for better though , I am confused without being even more confused 😄

I watched her live the other day . She claimed that anyone who thinks they’re not going to have payments cut are wrong as it’s happening already. She then used an example from her comments. After scaring ppl she told them that it looks like dwp hadn’t given him TP by mistake. Any problem join her new community where she has solicitors etc ( didn’t mention the fee though). Then she spoke of 4 points for lcwra and 4?points for pip . In the comments someone asked if that meant two 4 point descriptors plus other comments. She just liked the comment as she couldn’t answer it but it made it look as though it’s true. I’ve asked scope to clarify the 4 point rule on here and they havent replied either.
