I agree , I don’t see how they can completely abolish a sickness and disability benefit. They would literally be claiming no one is ever sick / disabled. If they then leave it up to work coaches to decide who’s sick/disabled and who isn’t that must surely be against the law . Even assessors have to have some medical training. For a lot of us work or over exertion is dangerous for our health, I hope the work coaches realise this and take full responsibility when someone gets hurt or worse

Are they forms that are just on the gov website or what you have received to fill in?
I tend to ignore all the writing as mostly is common sense and get on with filling it in. Once you get into it it don't take too long in my experience.

It's only my thoughts, but I think the Green Paper will get passed. However some aspects of it will be watered down down the line. It's going to be a rough ride for all of us in the coming weeks with what's going to be reported on social media/newspapers/mainstream news. So please everyone on here remember to practice self care. p.s. I'll have to practice my own advice.

So theyve reversed the WFA cut & anyone getting over £35k will pay it back through HMRC yet we're still on the chopping board

Sure. The Green Book is like, for example, ordering consumables in a scientific laboratory - you need 100 units of equipment, you order 200, the management cuts the order to 100 😁

Next they’ll probably scrap the two child limit and use the cuts to disability benefits to pay for it . The fact is we will be left with nothing if these reforms go through. If we have to accept uc basic but say we can’t look for work we will be sanctioned, every month till we get nothing .

They're not backing down on this but they'll back down on everything else, this is the politics of spite, I hope everyone remembers this saga and won't forget it, if a Labour canvasser comes to the door you'll know what to say.

I had the leader of the local council who was a labour councillor come round during the local elections recently told her straight that i would of normally voted labour but i wont now because of the attack on the disabled. Her response seemed to show she'd been hearing that alot

I think it would be fair to first receive money from the agitator for listening to his agitation in the amount of twice the amount of money lost due to cuts.

Does anyone think the disability cuts could mimic the WFA as in after they cut the disability payments they will see in a years time that it is very bad and reverse it ?

Yes and we have to make them think we have the power I emailed loads mps saying you vote for the cuts we will vote you out ! How they have treated us is shocking they was meant to hold consultation in Wales they didn't even turn up thier looking at taking them to court for it ?
