Oh yawning is part and parcel of life Noman, but sometimes it can come across as a tad rude, especially mid conversation and when typed out.0

I don't think yawning is against any rules but I've never seen anyone walk into a conversation and yawn 🤣noman said:

The whole conversation is boring as it has been done to death and one person keeps bringing it up after being told numerous times it will happen when it happens if it going to happen!honestjon said:

That may be, but new folks see or read it & make their way here with the same anxieties about it, to dismiss it does not help. Best bet, you & anyone else fed up with it, don't bother reading it when it comes back up again...simples!

The person who keeps bringing it up is totally entitled to bring it up as many times as they want to.noman said:

They are obviously asking for help and yawning is not helping at all so if you can't help it's better to not involve yourself4 -
Because they're all in it together0 -

I have read that the DWP are trying to sneak a few additional "policing" powers through as part of unrelated legislation to do with pensions, a tactic which can often work due to limited parliamentary time for scrutiny (this is why we have the House of Lords, but is also why the Tories keep trying to stuff the HoL with their cronies).While there are loud complaints from some sectors, including MPs and lawyers, about this, it still needs as much daylight shining on it as possible. There is a petition on the official Petitions website that can be signed. Unfortunately, it's struggling to get signatures as most people are signing useless protest websites instead. The Petitions site can get this debated in Parliament if it gets 100,000k signatures. That should be the goal. Find it here:

That they want powers of arrest is chilling. The increase in fraud was caused by the untested UC system and lockdown not people like us. I don't they have a handle on it at all.

How can this be ruled out? It’s going through House of Lords now?0

I have a business account with over £12,000 and my personal account has 10,000 but all the money from pip back payments and UC nothing dodgy is that ok if they do check0

Earnings are income for means tested benefits. Pensions are teated as "unearned Income." They won't ask about closed bank accounts.Danny123 said:What is classed as income though ? And will they go back through multiple years ?1 -
Hi poppy. Closed account? If someone closed an account but moved the money to a new bank they wouldn’t check the old closed one?0
-
If a bank account is closed there wouldn’t be anything to check because it’s closed. They may check the new one though.0

My bus journeys are monitored as is my supermarket spending via loyalty cards but I would struggle to document my movements though I have nothing to hide. Admin overwhelms me though I can read and write and have a huge table to use at home.
My bank recently closed the branch I'd used since my original branch shut! I can now only use telephone banking as online is too difficult and could not print statements if asked. A photocopy now costs 50 pence a sheet and a bank can re-issue statements but charges for them.
Things might sound simple but they aren't if you're laid up in hospital or living in temporary accommodation with young children or dealing with 'overpayments' created by UC (because they are created arbitrarily!) or having to travel to find a bank.
Monitoring itself isn't the problem. It's the stress and fear that DWP will mess up our income, stability and mental health with their 'errors' because that's what happens to working-age claimants these days.
They want direct access to our medical records despite us providing proof to support our incapacity benefit claims. They want powers of arrest that belong to the police. They want us all to become 'disabled job-seekers' to create masses of work for themselves. Saving taxpayers' money and catching fraudsters is the least of their concerns!
They will not stop trying to ruin people's lives so as long as you never need to claim UC, you probably do have nothing to worry about.

I thought the banks kept records of closed accounts for years? Maybe I’m wrong. I think there will be a lot of people moving banks. Lol0

It used to be 6 years1 -
I think that’s about right. I notice my online banking goes back to 20180

And banks already report suspicious activity to DWP0 -
