    Sorry to hear what you are going through sounds like a very hard time. Social prescribing once you get a worker are a great service. You can ring 111 and speak to someone there if you don't want to chat to mental health team it's always good to talk though as it does help honestly 👍

    I know you do and see you on the forum regularly . There’s certainly nothing funny about what we going through right now and we still have uc and pip reviews at the same time . I get brain fog at the best of times but I can’t think straight with all this extra stress . It definitely helps to get a few different opinions as the process is different depending on if you have ID etc .

    Hi lincs ,

    I don’t know if you’re referring to someone in particular but I’ve never read your posts and found them offensive

    @michael57 is a lovely person, honest, I was typing moments ago. I felt like saying what are you on about Michael, this is a very short thread of only 150+ pages? Then you'd all have been wondering why I was replying to him, but I'm pleased to say I've known him a little while 😊

    You have to forgive him, as he doesn't even know how to pronounce 'dahlias' having been brought up far away from God's own county 🤣

    We're all here trying to help other members in our various ways. If threads go off at a tangent it doesn't matter if we're all doing that & supporting each other, & it's because of the concerns about these proposed changes this can happen, so is relevant.

    Right, I'm off soon to read my homework, & hope some of you'll join me - the 'Changes to benefits for disabled people,' you can find the link from the Benefits and Work site that @lincsgranny kindly mentioned & can then download the full report from the House of Commons library: https://www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/news/commons-library-publishes-55-page-green-paper-briefing

    You shouldn't be fooled by the political labels they're carrying, as this is not what counts to the masses but what they do. If you recall it back in 1997 and earlier, Blair, Brown, and Mandelson used to only say that they were a left party. Later in 2001, they started saying, "we are a left of centre party". And later on, "Centrists", and then, "Blairites", with Blair playing King Louis XIV (LÉtat c'est moi - the State is me/I'm the State) - Labour is me/I'm the Labour Party.

    It's well known that Brown is supporting Starmer. Have you seen him saying anything against Starmer? Blair, Brown, and Blunkett are the backbone of Starmer and all of them are supporting these evil proposals.

    If you believe that Brown shouldn't criticise Starmer because Brown is not of the left wing, then, you should also accept what Starmer is doing because he has said that he's embracing the legacy of Blair and is borrowing from Blair.

    "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?"

    Nothing will happen and your award will continue to be standing and won't stop until you're called for a review and your award is changed. The proposed 4 pts scoring system will only affect you when your review time shows up.
