Today's Bill appears limited by comparison with proposals set forwards in the Green Paper.

I have never come across a "sadistic" one but ones who clearly didn't understand how my disability impacts my daily life.

Morning luv pink, hope you’re ok .
My first assessor was definitely sadistic . She barely looked at me then lied I had good eye contact. Ignored all Dr evidence apart from one which she lied about . While report said claimant says she can’t do this I say she can . Zero points .
Even the assessment centres are the same , they called me 30 minutes before my phone assessment to say no recording available as dwp booked with the wrong person even though dwp don’t make the appointment. Assessor seemed lovely but I wasn’t falling for that . She increased my care to enhanced and decreased mobility ( got back at MR) . I couldn’t work out why . Now when I check my points I see where I should of gotten at least a 4 but she was steering me towards 2, points0 -
I do believe it . I know of someone who trained to do the job of assessor and was so disgusted by the tactics of them being taught how to turn us down I’d believe anything.

I think when / if this passes there will be aspects of the bill challenged in court . We can see where they are discriminating against us in so many ways and think certain parts will be challenged and changed . I imagine now they can’t as nothing is in law yet 🤞

Passerby is claiming "undisclosed guidelines" are given to assessors and failed to notice the rest of DWP's response. This is simply untrue.

Could we be talking about this ?

No, it was a DWP response to a Freedom of Information request.

It’s not misinformation if it comes directly from someone I know .

Morning folks. As far as we know the DWP utilise Government mandated guidelines for reviews and decision making. @Wibbles shared a link to this further up the page. If someone has heard otherwise via word of mouth, please treat it as that. Please can we all keep the conversation civil. Appreciate tensions are high right now, but want to avoid any upset between members.

Thanks Apple , their idea that everyone knows the system needs to change is from the stand point that it’s too lenient when in fact I know people that should claim but are too scared to. Not to mention the ones who get turned down. Yes it needs changing, it’s needs to be fairer not any harsher

Im really struggling with all this, I know even if the bill passes there's still a little hope before it's implemented with legal challenges and the like but just seeing it's going to be introduced to parliament today has got me facing that dark place that those of us with life long mental health struggles know all so well. I'm scared out my mind guys more so with having to deal with the DWP than potentially being destitute which says alot. Just the thought of them phoning me up has me hyperventilating

I don’t know how to link but there are two reports on daily express . One with an MP not being able to answer a question on what people do if they lose pip etc on this morning with Richard madley. Another which could possibly have been written by Kendall. Reporting the millions of us ( me included) with hearing loss followed by the amount of pip we can claim for it . Getting desperate now
