@luvpink My GP told me the same thing - that they’d been told not to issue supportive letters as they’d be torn up. As we had to pay for such letters the practice have stopped supplying them. She did reassure me that when they contacted her she would be supportive though they never made contact! Fortunately, all went well with my review

morning everyone,
I just received an email from benefits and work regarding legal advice they’ve taken about the reforms including 4 point rules. They’ve been advised that legally there’s nothing that can be done to prevent it going ahead . Not sure this is so but if anyone can link the post please do

I think we must just prepare ourselves to lose. Nothing can be done. Writing is on the wall sadly.

it never ends does it ? What about the ECHR ? It feels like everyone has rights apart from disabled people.

I also posted about this earlier. They’ve frightened the life out of me as I don’t think the government will vote this down.

My Tory MP is the same.
He would rather have people blown up in another country than allow disabled people in his own country, a future with dignity and enough money to live on and for the cost of our disabilities.
Either way he is Evil Incarnate 😡

morning MW,
I just read from benefits and work that they’ve taken legal advice and the welfare changes cannot be challenged in court apparently. Surely this can’t be true ?

one labour mp asked about people who can’t communicate would they have to look for work ? And that’s when he said about seriously thinking about transitional protection if they lose out on pip

I received it via email this morning. Lovely wake up call. I have read others claiming it’s rubbish and I hope so . I’ve written to my MP Jeremy Corbyn to ask if it’s true . I will post on here if I get a reply . I’m sure he’s inundated about this situation

I thought exactly the same thing. I’ve asked a few times on here for scope to clarify and been ignored.
