    Hi, I am so mad about the government saying oh we are going to stop fraud by checking disabled people's account and see if they DARE to spend money on something nice here and there. Isn't the government's responsibility to give support for people who only deserve it and in need? I mean I had to send a lot of medical documents, and still have to every 2 yearly to DWP to receive PIP. Just had mine done recently again. I am also recipient of UC Standard+LCWR so not sure how someone could commit fraud when have to prove everything.

    Hello

    My main point to know is that if they scrap wca and do uc it with pip then why the hell people need to apply for universal credit health element what will be the point of claiming uc. At this moment we know that lcwra are for not working people and support if you have no money coming there two seperate lcwra and pip but i am not understanding how will this work if they scrap wca and doing with pip if people need to have daily living then it will same for uc as pip ?
