    They are not planning on scrapping it completely. What may happen is anyone's guess until any further announcements are made.

    Yes of course you will. There maybe some changes in the future but no one knows exactly what may happen. (if anything)

    Just to add further Income Related ESA is ending anyway because Universal Credit has replaced it. 

    Unless you’re claiming Tax Credits you won’t be part of managed migration until at least 2028. Unless a change of circumstances prompts a move in the meantime.

    That's correct, unless a change of circumstances prompts a move in the meantime. Contributions based ESA and New style ESA are not being scrapped. Those claiming the old contributions based will have their claim automatically transferred to New style.

    Your question was answered on your other thread here https://forum.scope.org.uk/discussion/111405/will-i-still-get-esa-in-2024-or-be-axe#latest
    As I advised on that thread it will continue, unless a change of circumstances prompts a move to UC in the meantime.
