I hope that we are giving them at least some of the misery and sleepless nights that we've been having. 😁
It will only ever be small part of what we are going through though because the worst they will lose is status and their ministerial pay grade.
It may seem devastating to them but they will NEVER know what it's like to have the prospect of a future of destitution and homelessness as we have. 😡
They deserve to know at least some of our misery though. Even if this was all resolved tomorrow, we will never be able to be able to see life in the same way again after going through this horror! 😱

The ones following starmer don’t realise once they’ve ruined the country he’ll be off elsewhere and those left behind won’t get a second thought .

I felt a bit sorry for my parady of Loathsome LIz the other day (not) so I did one for Keir Starver too. I do actually post these online on X etc to give a serious message too about our plight so it's not just about making fun out of them (but it helps). I know a lot of mp's have social media accounts so may see them and share them, and realise what a laughing stock we know they are!!

Here's the link to their Open Letter. It's the best one I've seen yet.
Also have a look at the screenshots I posted for The Guardian yesterday (if you haven't seen them already) of two articles that tell you a lot more about #TakingThePIP.

Farage had a press conference yesterday outlining his manifesto further. No mention of disability cuts and no questions asked by the media regarding the planned cuts. Not sure where he’s standing regarding these cuts and I’m not sure anyone knows.
My feeling is that he is unsure on wether to back these planned cuts as currently outlined or not because he isn’t sure how they will go down with the electorate.I’d press him too.
He has to be made to take a clear stance regarding this issue.

was thinking about Great Expectations and Reeves could be Miss Favisham and Kendall Estella, messing with poor PIP

With the damage he's done to us and to so many others in this country with both left and right wing voters hating him he will not only have to go elsewhere, I think that he will have to permanently leave the country because I don't think that he will be safe if he stays here as he is so throughly detested.
He's already had his former home, his private home and a vehicle connected to him set on fire recently, in London.
I shouldn't think that he's feeling all that comfortable, to be honest!
You're quite right about him not giving a damn about all the people whose lives he's ruined or going to ruin.
That's going to be the main problem for him. No one is going to thank him for making their lives so difficult!!

Well he seems to be settling himself up in the EU so maybe they’ll want him but he’s so useless I doubt it .
As for the fires they’re a bit suspicious and maybe more in the personal side as is talked about away from the msm . Will we ever know the truth probably not .2 -
All back in history it's always been people that change laws make things happen I think alot of history is made up what amazes me is buildings from centuries ago massive wonderful architecture how could they been built without any form of equipment all built by man know we bang the walls and there hollow we really have gone back we have not been allowed to grow we are living an artificial life never reaching our potential all by design when you start questioning everything it's almost a loss and understanding we where never free and that applies for everyone people are walking money for the government we are surplus to requirements all these Americans building bunkers storing food learning to hunt so have the right idea anyway as usual I go from one topic to another but yes that's so intriguing

Politicians and political parties all over the world have been clowns for the behind-the-scenes owners of circuses. Sometimes clowns put their former employers in jail (Zelensky-Kolomoisky), but clowns themselves are nothing. And if a new party appears (Farage, for example), it means that someone with real power needs it. It is very expensive to maintain a political party.
And if you noticed, there is no room for ordinary people in this equation.

How much money is rich? 6000/16000?
Now this is not money for which you can buy something valuable. This is money not to die of hunger for several months.
The shameful policy of mixing the disabled with the unemployed, refugees and the like bears its bitter fruits.
I believe that any disabled person should be provided with support to ensure a safe existence, regardless of their "wealth".0 -
If Farage were to come out in support of leaving benefits cuts alone Starmer would have no choice but the scrap the cuts . Apparently half of red wall are against cuts so labour will lose the red wall if he continues surely

"New Labour" behind the curtain, like odious extreme right wingers Labour Chief of Staff Morgan McSweeny and former Prime Minister Tony Blair.
Funny, we never voted for their opinion on how the government is run! 🤔

Exactly my thoughts, he's currying favour with the EU so he can land a job with them once his tenure is over as PM … hence the change to fishing grounds and free movement for under 30's within the EU

I agree wholeheartedly. Lets say they means test PIP, if they set the cut off at the same point as pension credit that's mine gone !! I live alone, I don't have private pensions etc but was just £3 odd over getting PC, so no WFA for me and this would have been my first year receiving it, I need my PIP now more than ever. I really do not like the argument that ''pensioners are living a life of luxury'' and therefore they don't need PIP. Some posts really get my back up on here at times, I usually refrain from saying anything about them but when folk want to take from one section of disabled folk to make sure another section is funded, well honestly its pretty saddening and disappointing.
