This whole thing has come back to haunt starmer , it was him that took Tony Blairs government to court to win the right for illegals to claim benefits .
Now too many are claiming so this is why they need to take it off us , imagine what we will look like to the rest of the world if these changes go through , with disabled losing their homes etc. The UK is a dump .

I agree about these random petitions @noonebelieves
My suggestion would be to only sign petitions that are promoted by DPOs, such as Scope, DPAC and Benefits and Work. They seem to promote credible petitions that generally do well from Change.org and Petitions : UK Government and Parliament.
DPOs websites, newsletters and notifications all point the way to these petition links.
For instance, I find it useful to follow DPOs on X as they will notify you on your smartphone, laptop etc. as soon as a petition appears on their website.
They are the only ones that I give the links to here, on Scope Community, let's put it that way.
For anyone who might be reading this, looking for a viable petition, the links are :
When you find these DPOs on X just click Follow in the top right hand corner of their page and they will send you notifications, including links to petitions.

Great tips, Juls 👏, thank you! I’ve taken them on board. Since I’m not on any social media at the moment, I’ll look into setting up an X account just for this purpose.
Really appreciate the guidance and all the amazing work you do to support and empower me & our community. Hope you have a great day!
Best Wishes! ✌️

"The government wants to encourage people to find work, so if you're unable to find a job within the Unemployment insurance period, your eligibility for the benefit could end "
so they intend in giving people a time limit to find a job or else they'll stop your benefits ?

Three law firms working with disabled people but does seems hard to get them on primary legislation that's just my thoughts from reading up on it but I may be wrong and it's so positive that 3 firms are looking into it

Economists have long ago calculated which points will bring savings and the government excluded them from discussion. The government is determined to plunge the disabled into poverty.

I think if she had interviewed a cobblestone there would have been more meaning in the answers.

Thanks so much for your interpretation - that absolutely affirms my understanding of what’s outlined in the Green Paper proposal .
Just to add:unemployment insurance is currently being consulted on - specifically in Question 4:
“4. How could we introduce a new Unemployment Insurance, how long should it last for and what support should be provided during this time to support people to adjust to changes in their life and get back into work?”
Best Wishes!
