I'm shocked after reading that the reforms and cuts will not have to go through legislation.
I'm even more stressed now because this means they can bring these cuts in immediately if they wish. I feel physically sick.

This is certainly worth a read.

Sorry but any welfare reforms do need legislation. They needs the green paper, white paper ans Royal Ascent.
That’s without any legal challenges etc…What they are talking about is probably the PIP freeze which doesn’t need legislation as long as it’s justified.

It would be great if saving was an option for me. As things stand, I am thinking about taking my Motability car back early, as I can barely afford my daily expenses.

Me too, I didn't sleep at all last night. All the talk of green papers etc but that article says cuts don't need require new legislation. Made me feel quite sick

Welfare reforms but cuts to welfare?

We can all get a job as a work coach - £24K to £26K pa. How hard can it be to sanction people you don't like the look of? (Joking)

Sorry but they have frozen benefits before, for 4 years. They can freeze it again

I would be more concerned with them being removed than frozen! We shall have to hang on to hear what the green paper says.

Does anyone know what was said in Ellen Clifford’s zoom meeting ? I read on YouTube the cuts are expected to catastrophic.
0 -
I don't know about any zoom meetings, but I do believe (my opinion) that much of the public support cuts to social security.

I certainly won't hold my breath, waiting for a public outcry.

We don't have anything concrete yet, still alot of 'leaks' and supposition. It isn't easy, I too am concerned.

Good morning everyone,
I very rarely get political, but I seem to remember this Government saying that this 'Black Hole' that has been inherited would be filled by those with the broadest shoulders!
It turns out that those with the broadest shoulders are pensioners and the disabled!
Look forward now to a few weeks of the Government gaslighting the 'able bodied tax payer' through the media about 'predictions' of what 'their' contributions 'could' be to the welfare bill in 5 years time!
I hope Scope are all over this?

Some members of the public support any cuts to social security. HMG seem determined to chase potential Reform voters. We are not a priority for them, sadly.

I'm old enough to remember being demonised by Thatcher's government, then Cameron! I never thought it would be a Labour government, that I voted for, who would resort to such tactics in the media!
We have been constantly told of a £22B black hole that needs filling, for which no proof has ever been given! Now I am constantly seeing graphs, on TV and social media, showing a welfare bill reaching £100B in 2030! This is at best a 'foreceast' and probably draws a lot of data from hospital waiting lists, but it is being portayed and discussed in the media as a 'fact'!
This has to stop, this number is being used in the same way as the fictious 'black hole', by a government trying to swing the populist view in it's favour!
This coverage is pure gaslighting in every sense of the word!

people need to realise that anyone can suddenly have a life changing accident or condition .
