Green Paper Discussion - includes accessible formats and consultation event sign up links!

Hi, and just to say, always get involved, that is what yourv MP is for. This also includes councillors in your area, as they are the ground troups when YOUR MP is in parliament or out and about.

Find your local office, and just pop in, tell them your concerns and they should assist you, because afterall you voted them in and its a feather in their cap if they assist in putting even the little things right.

Its not only about complaints against the System of assessment and loss of benefits, but to ask about bin collections. Are there changes being made to the way in which it is collected? Bins, Bags, or recycle collection or collection times. Are busses or public transport adequate? do they come on time? Do you have trouble with unreasonable behaviour in your area, is there enough police see in your area, do you want more, or do you think that the speed camera near you is not needed, or do you need one, because of excessive speeds in the town centre. This list is anything that affects you goes through your council and through the elected party.

Hospital wait times, A & E and where is the nearest. So if we were all tyo get involved like here locally, its just another way of getting heard.

As a point of interest if you send your APPOINTED PARLIAMENTARY M P AN E-MAIL listing your concerns, and there is no need tto go intop great detail at this time, (in the first contact.) they are obliged to answer and/or invite you to give more details where s/he can present yours and others that have contacted her over what ever issues you have raised.

@noonebelieves, and others in support, 

Firtsly I would like to say I have been in the system since 1998 and probably a bit before that as well.

When I first going to Tribunals then, I was also a full Time Senior Shop Steward, as well as working as a Site Engineer so also was a First Aider, and wrote Risk Assessments and Method Statements FOR ALL TRADES.

This covered everyone from the Toilet Cleaner to the CEO, and included doing those jobs and gaining certiication to write those with the HSE and Trade Unions.

My point, everyone has a skill, its a good employer that can see someone for what they do and ask them is there any improvements we can make to make things easier for you and me?

I am not worried to present my case to anyone from the Parliamentary Commission in London, (where the 2014 Social Security Act was based, to a First or Second Tier Tribunal where th big desk symdrom kicks in, and believe everyone that side does know better.

Well, they obviously have not met me yet, since I don't go intheir guns blazing, although I have done but only where necessary. I believe in using the laws and charters set up by the people who "know best and ask them if they know this or that and ask a question knowning the answer and then state can you look at this report and show where it states that.

I am also prepared with, its only a one off? (Well that one life you changed or tthe worse.) and can you explain this report? Or its outcome? Show me the amendments? And this case? And this case? I will show each case andf show you the ACTUAL OUT COME, not the one stated in court, and can you explain why this assessment is still being used and why you have not adhered to the judges direction and sent me the amendments or the amendments made while at court? Or the original requests for information both prior to a MR and after.

This lead me to go further and as a judge said to e Go away and learn your trade if you want to represent someone.

So I did. If you look no get support in your area and want a solicitor to help you in court you will not find one when you state its against the DWP. You are also not given help in a Civil proceeding, again when they find out that the people you are taking a proceeding against are DWP workers, Decision Makers, or Assessment companies HIRED BY THE DWP TO ASSESS US. Is this impartial? what are the assessments designed to do? Originally to sign post us to treatment, and benefits BOTH financially and medically since "NEURO DIVERSANT" DISABLED PEOPLE HAVE NO OTHER MEANS OF EARNING MONEY to pay for things like that dinner I liked butt can't afford, or the heating on because I am cold, because it costs to much, that adaption I need but have no way of finding out where or how to apply, or the rules being changed for access to benefits with contact to me and the way it affect me and my benefits.

Or even if it means another cut to the financial help given on paper to disabled people but taken off you because they forgot to increase your tax allowances and infact class them as UNEARNED INCOMEE AND TAX IT ANYWAY.

AS A QUESTION FOR SOME TO CONSIDER: (I already know the answer.) If you are now having a pension Taxed as unearned Income, then are you entitled to OTHER MEANS TESTED BENEFITS LIKE, Income Support, Universal Credit, sickness benefits (since this should be covered under the Care Component of my Disability which is NOT means tested.) to name some, and also am I entitled to a tax rebate?

the 23rd has already been won since this is to get long over due compensation and to get the amendments logged onto the system that should have come from 1998, and again in2008, the reason ATOS decided to hand back the contract for assessments and BUY THEM SELVES OUT AT AN UNDISCLOSED AMOUT, the reason Ian Duncan Smith Resigned ( not the official one released to the press, but the one he was supposed to answer to in Court and did not attend, (but sent the court a resignation letter to them not me through the court, which the court excepted, I DID NOT.) 2010, 2011, 2012, 2014 Social Security Act, THE 2018 SOCIAL SECURITY ACT, The new Social Care Act from Last Year, NOW 2 YEARS OLD (september) and still not implemented since they gave their own version of that, which the new "budget" is only a revamp of that. (Their version.)

I am fed up with them not doing what a court has instructed to do so this year after APRIL 2025. I will show my contempt for the system by using the system as it was intended for.

I have stopped certain things and do not want to go into details yet and let the system do what it does best and remove things. Then by compiling the results and proving this is not a one off has cost some departments to rethink also "on the run" as they are all trying to put things right before next week.

SORRY guys its all about accountability and the fact that your name, or lack of it on a doument just makes matters worst.

so the fight/discussion soon ends (for Me) (then for you) I would like to see a positive outcome, as all my eggs are not in one basket since here, and at Labour Party head quarters where I am have realised the voting power of the people that are being upset by these CUTS to benefits NOT SUPPORT that we are entitled to will boost the chance to be revoted in not only on our subject of benefits but at Community levels with other issues that involve YOU.

I would be happy to direct anyone to departments for care or adaptions to disability or long term sick, but its only a question of contacting your LOCAL MP and asking if you get no sence from your local council. The council ndon't like receiving letters from constituents that have been side tracked or not heard. Give it a go.
