There is a very long time to go until Nov 26 and already a stink is being caused by MPs who understand that the disabled shouldn't be punished for having an illness. I agree they should focus on people like the many on an estate near me, youngsters riding around on pricey bikes doing dodgy stuff, they should be focused on first.

How are employers going to deal with people who can't turn up or can't work,losing benefits and becoming homeless or in to worse poverty.

Just a question. If your reassessed and awarded pip before Nov 26 and given 2 or 5 years as awards go then what happens then? Does it stop?

Exactly Kendall in that job for a reason and Timms a disability mp yet walks around a disabled person who collapsed

I think whatever happens it will go through. Not sure what they expect people to live on though 🤔

Kendall needs some help that level of anger towards disabled and sick people should be ringing alarm bells in MPs heads. No empathy at all for anyone with illness it's appalling what Timms did

I’ve never heard of that before. In my experience so far it’s been fine , in fact I should be better off than I was before. Was advised don’t go over till you have to and I’ve had less money because of it . Try not to worry it’s not that bad . You contact CAB at cab help to claim live chat or by phone

Good afternoon

I am trying not to worry too much until we get an official announcement.

I have been distracting myself by going for short walks and sitting on a bench looking out to sea.

I have been watching stuff I record on television.

Personally I don't believe the government will get away with this.

Think about it, do you really believe that society would accept this cull of sick and disabled people?

I don't think so.

I believe there will be absolute uproar like there was with the winter fuel allowance and people will protest and not let the government get away with it.

I moved over voullentatrlly and it was all done over the phone , I did have some security questions when I had to make the claim for UC , I think they do a check with a verified company like the post office or Experian , I remember questions like have you taken out a phone contract in the last two years , things like that .... I must of passed because if they can't confirm your identity like that they don't let you go forward with the claim ..... There was a bit of confusion at the beginning as they were training people and I was being asked for sick notes , even though I'd been on ESA for 15 years .... They must of thought it was a new claim instead of me migrating over .... Luckily enough there was a women on the other end of the phone training them and when she realised what was going on she took over , her title was a DOA " disability something agent " .... She left a message in my journal saying she would be calling and we went from there she asked me a few questions like if I'd had any gaps in my claim etc and had my claim up on her computer while we were both in it , basically excepted all my commitments on her end while we were on the phone , she then informed me I was going to stay on cbesa every two weeks and the rest would be paid at the end of the month in lcwra .... That was the last I heard of them , until the UC told me they are building my claim and it all went through ok .... Never had to show id or anything like that ....I've been changed to UC now exactly 3 years now and the only message Ive has up until now is about other benefits I have , basically just says our records show you also receive cbesa , you are allowed to continue getting this bit it will get deducted from your UC award at the end of each payment .... Then they show you a list of benefits Inc ESA and say if you get 1 or more of these benefits OTHER than the ones we already know about them you must contact the department and tell them you are now on UC ..... Like I say they know I'm on ESA and UC so I don't need to tell them about them and I don't revive any others so I don't need to contact anyone .... Other than that I haven't heard from them

Oh I see , have you not moved over yet ? It was stressing me out so I got it out the way with , like you say I was better off by about nearly 200 pounds , give or take maybe a bit less I'm not sure
