    We all need to do this daily until they get pee'd off, since I am disabled 24/7 and the cuts to my financial needs are 24/7.

    You also have to realise who put them their, and if they are NOT doing what they say on the box, then they WILL BE REPLACED.

    It is not in my remit to quit….

    hi Catherine ,

    No I meant starmer . I just emailed him . Maybe if he gets more and more emails he might listen. Long shot but it’s better than nothing.

    I basically gave him an overview of my conditions , said these are lifelong with no cure available and not just my “ behaviour “ . I said also stated that even though he has said the most severely disabled will be protected I am mostly bed bound and do not get a 4 point descriptor as assessors don’t award them .

    I found it now, not really much, just some stuff from a book.

    yes but it gives an impression of starmer as weak . That’s the impression I got before the election. If that’s right then maybe we can put more pressure on him . At the end of the day whoever is telling him to go ahead it’s his name signing off the reforms and he’ll be responsible.

    I have started a petition on Change.org to oppose the Pathways To Work Green Paper and a call to get it scrapped altogether. If anyone would like to sign or share it I would be most grateful, the more of us that oppose these 'reforms' the better, even if it seems like a small contribution we make. Link is below, thanks.

    How strange. Your comment now deleted was suggesting that elderly people should be fighting our cause - senior citizens should defend benefits for working-age citizens and the disabled

    🤣 🤣 🤣

    "I would love to do a survey among those who believe these illegal immigrants should be supported" Please launch your immigration survey and immigration discussion on a new thread instead of trying to derail this one.

    How one becomes a Trump admirer without mainstream media is beyond me…

    it's beyond my capability but it would be nice to have web page where it shows MP's voting intentions on the green paper ….

    every MP needs to be listed and show if they are in favour of the cuts, against them, or intend in taking the cowards way out and abstaining from the vote !

    if such a web page was created it would quickly gather momentum if shared with other disability charities ….

    Name and shame them !

    Danny, LCWRA is the Support Group (in ESA). The Support Group is LCWRA.

    It doesn't belong in any other award or benefit.

    Youi can word an e mail to your MP statinhg I wish to know yopur intentions of the proposed cut, and which way they are going to vote since an abstention on your part is a non-vote in the next election from me.

    He just wrote the book on starmer so I wouldn’t waste time on him Catherine, unless someone says differently. I just think starmer comes across weak and maybe we can use that to our advantage. We’ve nothing to lose by sending an email

    Hi ,

    Yes this is exactly what I’ve said and on the DPAC Facebook group. I’m not on social media apart from facebook. Though I don’t really engage on there. But we do need a list of MPs and everyone who knows how they’ll vote to register it and then get it out on X etc . Mines Jeremy Corbyn so I know he’s on our side

    Relying upon this type of hearsay as your source of information and reference speaks volumes about your nonsensical rants, hence, I rest my case.

    I've no more time to waste.

    How could you not admire a leader who's main quest is to make their country great again , this should be the goal of any leader shouldn't it ?

    What was deleted , I never mentioned elderly people .

    I sincerely hope there is sufficient outcry to stop the paper ever seeing the light of day, it is clearly an attack on disabled people, it's already clear they make it as difficult as possible and magnify physical disability while all but discounting mental disability, IMO…
