According to The Sun ( I know it’s not to be trusted) Labour back benchers are rebelling as they know they’ll be losing their seats anyway and they want to leave with a clear conscience. According to the article more want to put their name to the letter but don’t want to look like it’s for attention and just want to vote it down in the day

I’ve read on other sites of medical staff asking prying questions too . Similar to a pip assessment.

Please god 🙏

Yes hospital Drs and I think dentist

Hi, hope this helps a bit, I too spoke to DWP a bit ago and they told me same thing, not enough staff to reassess people and only in very limited situations as below.

Yes, the DWP is reassessing for LCWRA (Limited Capability for Work Related Activity) in certain circumstances, but the vast majority of existing LCWRA claimants will not be reassessed. Specifically, the DWP plans to abolish the Work Capability Assessment (WCA) for most existing claimants and only reassess in limited situations, such as when a claimant reports a change in their health condition or if they were awarded LCWRA for a short-term prognosis, like cancer treatment. 

I rang them last month on an unrelated issue and asked them about LCWRA reassessments too. They said I shouldn't worry about it unless my circumstances change and are only doing them if your illness improves, youv'e had cancer and are getting better, you were pregnant (don't think I was!!). Also they mentioned not enough staff anyway to do all LCWRA claims because they don't have the staff. It's mostly Liz Kendall and the government trying to scare us again with untrue statements and propaganda to demoralise us.

If your still unsure or worried, which I was too, please don't be afraid to ring UC and put your mind at ease, they were helpful to myself and surprisingly polite and quite freindly.
