    the DWP found that more time with a work coach improved mental well being for claimants with mental health issues

    They must've been really friendly easy going work coaches, because when I had to see a work coach even though she wasn't that bad and nothing was mandatory, my depression, anxiety, and stress got a lot worse (and not just in the moment, it was actually long lasting, I'd be waking up everyday feeling a lot worse) because of her always trying to push me into things that I wouldn't be able to cope with or just wasn't able to face, it made my mental health worse.

    I’ve been so inspired by what I have seen from Scope and this community I wrote to my MP this morning. I thought it was essential and hope it has some positive impact because he’s supporting the changes 😩

    I cannot find any info about how my MP is going to vote. I wrote to her about WASPI (sp) debacle some time ago as part of the Age UK campaign, her response was as expected, rhetoric only. Is there somewhere I can find out her intentions re the vote ?

    My MP is Yvette Cooper, I have emailed her, i doubt I will get anything back.

    If your MP is Richard Tice, hard luck, he hates disabled people

    All three of my city's MP's voted Aye 😡to the green paper yesterday. No surprise really, it has always been a Labour stronghold, all three are young and will want to make an impression and more importantly keep their positions. They might be in for a shock though when it comes to the GE, at the recent local elections, Reform made real waves, that's as scary as hell.

    I’ve emailed my MP again, he voted in favour of the planned welfare reform and intends to again.

    I got an automated reply “Luke Charters MP is expecting the birth of his second son in early July and will be on paternity leave for at least four weeks.”

    It’s easy to vote for something you’re not personally impacted by!
