March 26th and Green Paper Mega Discussion (ITV leaks, etc)

It means that in financial year 2026/27 PIP will be paid at the same rate as in financial year 2025/26. It won't go up in accordance with the inflation rate as it will next month.

Interesting they not doing it this April. Does that also mean the UC changes are not until 2026 as well?

When I read about these "potential" changes my first thought is the DWP admitting to breaking the law?
PIP is not supposed to be about your diagnosis, diagnosis can act as evidence supporting the reported needs, but it shouldnt ever be the decider of an award. This is a reason why there is people who make applications, they report their medical condition, dont put much else and then get turned down.

didn’t the judge say removing £400 a month from claimants with no possibility of working ifs unlawful ? If I read that right then surely it’s not much different to Labour reducing amounts for people who can’t work but increasing amounts fir people who can.

yes I agree and it seems both the Tory’s and I think Labour put out false information such as they need to make people submit evidence of diagnosis. I filled out the Tory green paper and I’m sure there was something in that stating about evidence. They’re trying to make it sound as though anyone can claim without specialist letters etc . I think by mentioning fibromyalgia and other invisible conditions they’re playing on if you don’t look sick then you’re lying .
