It's quite a chunky file @lincsgranny (56 pages) which might be why.

I disagree that the general public don't care about the disabled community.
Of course there will always be some who believe the nonsense they see and read in the media but the parasites who print these things are out to make money and divide people politically.
I do feel the majority of descent members of the public will be outraged and they will come out on our side just like they did with the winter fuel allowance.
I am determined to try and remain positive and not let any of this consume my mind day in day out, night and day.
I have been sat on a bench in the sunshine today overlooking the sea and tonight I will sip some pink gin and watch the soaps on television.

Reading comments on the mirror people are mostly on our side . Unfortunately it doesn’t fit the msm agenda to tell the truth about the support from the public.
Enjoy your gin and soaps luvpink

Hi lovely
I know its really hard but try to find something positive to focus on every now and then.
Watch a film, have a bit of chocolate or whatever may give your mind a rest from this.
Please take care. X

The Telegraph bloody detests disabled people yet for some reason can't understand that elderly people can become disabled. Most of their readership are of pensionable age ironically enough.
It seems that they want welfare just for them and nobody else, not generalising, just predominantly the Telegraph readership.

Yet anyone can become sick or disabled, people forget that

people in general like to have a group they can scapegoat, if it’s not the migrants it’s the disabled. Makes them feel better about their lives to know there are people worse off and more vulnerable who are easy targets. It’s human nature I’m afraid. Where would we be now with Corbyn as Prime minister, A lot better off I reckon, if only.

You know what aswell , and I cannot believe I would ever be saying this but..... I think I hate starmer more than Johnson 🤔 tough one though , I despise Johnson and everything he stands for but starmer is running him extremely close ..... Forgetting welfare for a second , Liz Kendall for me is one of the most aggressive , unlikeble, nasty politicians I think I've ever come across , she is vile , and I don't use that term lightly

I don’t think any politician would be as bad as Starmer and Kendall . They’re pure evil. Others I think would have u turned by now. But Starmer and Kendall have a hatred that they can’t hide .

@Passerby I’m going through migration to UC at the moment and so far it’s been ok.
- I applied quite quickly once I got my letter - just because having it sit at home glaring at me would stress me out. I chose to get it over with. You’re best submitting your form the day after your ESA payment. I worked out dates from that which fitted into getting my meds in the 2 week run on of ESA. It left me 4 possible dates.
- I didn’t have to upload anything when I filled the form in. I filled the form in with help from CAB help to claim webchat but then waited a couple of days before I pressed submit. The form is quite simple - I just got stuck on a couple of things.
- A driving licence won’t allow you to verify your ID online. The options for that are extremely limited. I added a note to my journal as soon as I got access to it requesting a biographical phone call to verify I’m me and they were fine with that but I still had to pop into the jobcentre reception with my bank card to verify that.
- 4/5 I also added a note to my journal requesting alternative payments - rent direct to landlord and to be paid twice a month. The person who did my biographical phone call asked me if I’d like to do these and requested them for me. They also gave me my payment dates and made sure I knew how to access the advance if I needed to.
Everyone I’ve spoken to has been lovely
