I don’t think the damage this is doing and will do in the future will ever be measured accurately. I know my MH is worse than it was a year ago yet I have to plow on, dealing with major physical disability without family and friends.

That’s an excellent idea Catherine

Starmer doesn’t care about a second term anyway so by the time anything comes out he’ll be in a cushy EU job and all the back benchers that support the cuts will be jobless

Got up this morning determined to have a good day, turned tv on and there is Reeves gurning her face and speaking with that dreadful voice of hers, I’m not having a good day. Just can’t stop thinking about things.
These last few weeks I have never felt so distanced from society, feel like a second class citizen and I think that’s how others see me too.

I feel exactly the same Martin but we must remember we are not second class citizens. And we all have value , especially on this forum we value you

For me this seems very personal, it's not about saving money, it's a vicious and spiteful attack like Disabled people have personally done something wrong to Liz Kendall.
I hope there are legal mechanisms for taking legal action against a politician or politicians, I mean personally, as in a class action against one politician for human rights abuses.

Will do Catherine.

Liz Kendall is a psychopath! @JasonRA You're right. She doesn't have a heart. In my opinion, she is driven by power and throws out these harebrained ideas to play games. Job coaches in hospitals and care homes, restricting PIP and putting a minimum age on people being allowed to claim LCWRA and now she's going after carers!
She needs to go!

I've sent them to Kendall, they have broken all of them plus they have broken most of us.
She just wants them going through I read a report on how much id lose and I won't ever eat as what I'm left with don't cover bills 😢

She is a psychopath. Even in the video her smiling is creepy . After starmers u turn on the inquiry into grooming gangs to save himself I hope he has no choice but to u turn on these cuts . He won’t care about throwing Kendall under the bus as he’s already done it to reeves cooper and Philip’s . If I’m up to it tmrw I’m going to email starmer again

Yes my daughter got upset with me a few weeks ago,she said I'm all doom and gloom and talking about how much my mental Health has degraded over the last year ,I can't believe how much this has affected me mentally,my agoraphobia is 10x worse,I'm now struggling once again with getting into a car,I've done exposure therapy 3 times for this over the last 10 years and was getting a lot better, I'm having panic attacks at home aswell when I'm in the house on my own , I am one who us set to lose all my Income,cbesa,pip and carers allowance,almost 12k a year,it is absolutely terrifying when you still wont be beable to work after they've removed all support, just what are we expected to do?no wonder I'm a nervous wreck and on sleeping tablets.

Just thought I'd share this as a complaint can be made against a MP or Minster of the Labour Party

I just saw this article, it makes grim reading i am afraid. It looks like they are determined to carry on.

It doesn’t surprise me Fuzzy, all we can do is get ready for all the bad news and pray that the MPs are decent and vote it down. I absolute despise Starmer, I actually believed he would be decent and make a difference when he was elected, he must be the biggest snake in the History of British politics. I hope one day he gets to feel the constant anxiety and despair that we are feeling. Nasty piece of work.

Yeah its not looking good 🙄 it begins Wednesday I think , then we should know by the end of the month how they have gone through and if any amendments will be made .... Be in no doubt whatsoever these reforms are going to get through , we should all resign ourselves to that , What's important now is if they get amended , one things for sure , if they do go through as they are labour are FINISHED

Labour are finished regardless. Starmer probably has a job lined up in the EU but will the back benchers be clever enough to vote against him to save themselves ?
I did notice though that when asked about further concessions he didn’t say no , he said they have to get reforms through .
