Just watched something on politics Joe , I always listen to the women on there as I think she's very good and very assured....

She basically said even though all the labour MPs are rebelling , it's common knowledge that alot will simply abstain or not go against the government and these reforms will pass .... BUT she also said that these reforms will absolutely not go through on their current form , she said that there are definitely going to be tweaks and amendments to them from what's she's heard

She also raised the very serious point that no one seems to be giving any time too at the moment , that being the people that are on ESA / lcwra but NO pip and how dangerous it could be as if they don't qualify for pip they loose everything .…

Very worrying in my opinion that it isn't getting alot of airtime and it seems to be only pip that is getting mentioned....

She said that the WCA is looking to get scrapped in 2028 and that everyone will be under the new pip rules then ....

Also reassessments are going to start back up again for everything , with the emphasis on more face to face reassessments , god knows where that leaves me I haven't been outside in nearly 6 years 😩

I really hoping that the government will look at amendments to the people not on pip as well ..... Im sick of feeling terrified , it's with you from the second you open your eyes to the second you close them , just this constant Doom , I get this times a hundred because of my serve OCD and intrusive thoughts....

normally it's hard enough just concentrating on one standard reassessment to pass , now it's the fear of knowing your normal reassessment is coming , the pressure of passing that , then if you pass it will all be changing in 2028 and there's a good chance you could loose in my case everything then , ( what do you do just let it steal your life for the next 2 and a half years ! )....

Plus the paranoia of the bank checks and them finding old undeclared accounts that have been closed for over 5 years ....

I don't know how much more I can take , I have no contact with the outside world , just stuck between these walls for 6 years in December , I can hardly move , just sit in silence and watch it go dark , then light , dark then light , all while trying to do these poxy rituals that have ruined my life

They must know if this goes through they’ve lost the voters at the next election.

All valid points .... 🙂

My thinking to those is

1. I've only ever had face to face and always passed them , and the chances of me having a face to face are very slim this time around as I haven't been outside once in nearly 6 years

2. I see your point to this but with the back logs who knows when our next reassessment will be under the wca , the back logs are massive .... I myself haven't had one since 2019 in November and was supposed to get one in November 2021 , so this November will be six years since I've had one and 4 overdue .... Plus what they say they are going to do and what they can actually do is two different things , they will also have there hands full with the new pip criteria

3. Like you say who knows , but to be fair as hard as it is not to , that is a fear that has no basis of anything you've heard , and they cannot just leave people completey destitute , I know it's hard to believe at the moment but try not to let your fears cloud what's actually isn't even been said ( hard I know ) 😌

4. It would be stressful , unfortunately either way , but I would say alot can change between now and when the wca gets scrapped , I think pip is getting the coverage because it's the next change that will happen , but I think when it's time too do it they will have alot of worried people on Thier hands and amendments will be needed , I think because there will be no change for people like us till 2028 that is the reason why more has not being made of it , pip has dominated headlines because that is where the biggest change is coming next , nearer the time of the WCA being scrapped I'm sure we will hear alot more about it

5 . This is that doom creeping on to your head that we all get and unfortunately find it hard to deal with , that is the very worst case scenario , which I doubt will happen .... Remember they can't just literally leave people like that

Just before I wrote my last post I was having panic attacks , I couldn't breathe and the worst was flying around my head , once I calmed down and tried to think a little more logically it's easier to think .... There will definitely be amendments to all of these things whether it be pip , wca , esa .... They can't just leave us to rot 😌

I mean you would think so wouldn't you , but it's nearly all but certain there will be amendments , so I think they will amend them as they go ....

Starmer has finished off the Labour Party .

Morning any positive news today ???
