Ultimately IDS isnt in power right now. What is in the green paper is Labour's responsibility even if it was pre planned in some cross party agreement a decade ago.

@Catherine21 Totally hear you……But This Labour government isn’t just out of touch- They’re like a spreading cancer: cold, relentless, and heartless.I didn’t vote for them, but I genuinely feel for those who did -unknowingly handing their vote the DEVIL.
It honestly feels like they’re on a mission to silence, sideline, and push disabled people off the map
Well, good luck to them-Because we’re not going anywhere.We won’t be silenced. We won’t be sidelined.We will fight these benefit cutsDisabled voices and Lives matter.

Many MPs do support Starmer, yes-but I’m not sure all of their views are morally aligned when it comes to opposing the cuts. The Disabled People Against Cuts (DPAC) website has a list of MPs who support or do not support the cuts, which might be helpful.
Even if you don’t get responses from your MP, please do keep sending direct emails.
By the way, Scope Admin informed me that 94 MPs attended the Scope parliamentary event.There’s a post about this on our Scope “Get Your MP to Respond” thread. I felt it was a significant turnout and gives us hope that our efforts are making an impact.
If you’d like to find out whether your MP attended, you can email: campaigns@scope.org.uk. I reached out myself, and unfortunately, my MP did not attend.
Let’s continue to support each other and keep raising our voices.
Disabled voices and lives matter.

ALL UNPAID CARERS:
Carers UK is currently gathering evidence from unpaid carers, and organisations supporting carers, about the impact of the Government’s plans to reform the benefits system. This includes launching a survey to capture carers’ views, which will inform our response to Government and our campaigning. The survey will be open until 30 April. To take part, our survey.

On benefits and work, A letter someone posted, who also sent to Stephen Timms

MW, it's clear to me that we're talking about different aspects of those 2011 'amendments'!
I'm referring to a sleight of hand which Chris Grayling had the sense to remove himself from, after signing off that policy. Nobody has ever challenged this and it's why IDS is back for more of the same only much, much worse.
So, it is vital that we catch up with something we all missed back then, yes!!

Have you realised that it is possible for someone to be currently receiving enhanced PIP, from 3 points per activity, but lose entitlement completely due to the new 4 point rule ?
This proves that the new rule is totally unfair and cannot be allowed to be brought in.

Wow - what a superb letter
Also see
It says everything that many of us here feel about the situation
The sad thing is that Timms may read it but it will make absolutely no difference in what happens…

He should resign. He is a disgrace.

After Christmas I fear the countdown as more information on the changes will come. There is no doubt that something will change and we can only hope that each of us have the strength to get through all this . It really helps being here as the support is fantastic.
