    Thhere's alot of charities in the background it doesn't concern people unless it concerns them but honestly some people have no insight to ever think or believe it could be them I've worked for years in care profession I've been married paid my tax until I couldn't no more felt so useless for years I even used to say to people I was working if they asked obviously no people close to me my daughter used to say why you telling them you work I was so ashamed of myself now they can do one I've proved time and time again to DWP I just feel anger at the way we have been treated

    I worked till i had to quit to help my wife with our disabled son, then became a carer for my disabled daughter, now disabled myself. I have so called invisable disabilities but one of them has effected me physically & have to use stick, wheelchair or mobility scooter to get about so im not sure if thats still invisible? All i know is ive been spat at & called a dole dosser in the past & with how the goverment & press are talking about us dont feel too safe

    Oh yeah just emailed a load of labour mps, in it called them new nasty party & pointed out how they are talking is similar to how Nazi viewed the disabled, how they were voted in because they weren't conservative so ehy act like them & asked why did they attack tories then do worse themselves amongst other things. Also said there are more people who wish to say something but scared of been arrested for facebook posts & that i was scared to send that email.

    Have also messaged unison, tuc, unite asking where they stand on the cuts & changes considering their members are only a illness or accident away from needing the help & do they still stand behind the labour party with the attacks on the old sick & poor & keeping children in poverty

    It's so funny when I used to read the headlines DWP warn of cuts blah blah my heart used to beat out my chest I'd go into blind terror for days months I just read the latest you can get 1000 ALONG side uc actually had the word along in capital letters actually made me laugh so desperate I have to thank scope and especially nightcity for showing me and helping me lose the fear also bluebell and strawberry hope you are well

    I disagree someone on jsa is actively looking for work and can work MOST disables people cannot work so you can't compare the two so suffer because your disabled we don't have the same advantages as others boils my blood having to justify and explain

    Why reduced by 416 ? So quickly that's crazy that's what they do then so you get uc and lcw rate

    Lou had Transitional Protection with her UC, and this was reduced by the amount of her new LCWRA award. That is how TP is designed to work.

    Funny how they think they can do all this to the eldery, disabled & think we will forget by the next G.E but i don't think many will, i never forgave Thatcher for taking my milk as a child, never voted conserative because of it. Stupid i know but its how i feel.

    Catherine did you watch Ellen Clifford? I didn’t but what someone who did commented on YouTube is that they’ve threatened any Labour MP with removal of whip if they vote it down. They reckon they can push this through quickly. I’m hoping someone on here can give some insight into what was said and some reassurance as I’m back to last year now.

    It's so hard for young people they need support alot of youngsters haven't been given the best start in life don't have family support friends not knowing where to turn open to abuse it was extremely extremely hard for me growing up so understand the darkness I was incredibly shy as well couldn't talk for myself I've learnt to mask over years I seen a clip of a labour mp saying people with down syndrome don't need as much money as they do noting??? I've supported people with down syndrome have many passions love holidays voluntary work so their not allowed to enjoy life if none of the labour back benches say anything they should hold head in shame
