It should be. I'm just going on what I've heard and so-called 'leaked' info from people who work in the DWP but who knows what the truth is.

I would think if you’re up for review you’re not classed as a new claimant

"Protect PIP payments for existing claimants forever" yet Reform/Tories are most likely to form the next government and they want even more cuts.

There is no "forever" in politics and I hope rebels don't back down.

But there’s also something about people with multiple conditions and making it easier. So how is that going to happen as I’ve read that those of us with several conditions seems to get 2 points across different descriptors

I'm afraid I can't imagine that hard faced, stone woman being driven to tears by anything… probably just dramatics.

There may be several ammendments tabled. The "Big One" we've been discussing here is the "reasoned ammendment" currently signed by 134 MPs, mainly Labour rebels. It is entirely up to the Speaker decide which if any tabled ammendments can be voted on. Where he to selected the reasoned ammendment, it would be devoted, voted on, and if passed it would stall the Bill. There could not be a vote on the Bill.

The role of the Speaker is to preserve the powers of Parliament, often against the powers of the Government of the day.

Apply now!

That's not usually how it works, the whole 'rebellion' thing, and Starmer sticking to his guns, it's political theatre. The MPs will be glad to be given a way out.
