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 .

Yeah I noticed that too , it's strange because the changes don't really affect me until 2028 when the wca gets abolished, I have no pip , so just cbesa and lcwra , so I reckon I'll have one more wca before the changes and that will take me up or past 2028 when I'll need to wrap my head round the pip reforms .... But it has to be said just , I still can't see how they think this will all work 😂 these are plans with absolutely no thought of the chaos they will cause , how can they go through as they are 🤷

From 2015 planned before in power

The Sunday times got a headline that Kier Starmer has told MPs there will be no more concessions on welfare reform they will be pushed through. It's behind a paywall so can't see it all

Thanks for sharing. I'm shocked to read that. I'm sure Ed Milliband was leader, then later in 2015 Jeremy Corbyn. I'm more shocked JC kept her as Shadow Work & Pensions Secretary with those views.

That's how I felt when I read it he must be sure they will go through

Very true. Although JC may have just been keeping his powder dry until nearer election/being elected. Who knows. The mind boggles at what has become of 'Labour'.

How can you leave a million people without money ?

Think Jeremy Corbyn is truly well out of the mess that Labour are going to be in. At least he stands with us

I've been sure from the beginning of all this , these reforms are going through and if you listened to anyone who is credible in all this they always said that this rebellion was never going to stop them going through , forget about IF they go through because they will .... The most important thing now Is if they get amended , watered down , tweaked , whatever they call it , that's all that's important now

🙏they do but not looking good but I'm hoping they get watered down

Yes he, John McDonell and Diane Abbott are some of the very few true Labour people left.
