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

it’s the same I’ve found with physiotherapy. First time was for sciatica due to fibromyalgia flare up when pip came in . Left me bedbound twice . And lifetime medication to prevent flare ups. I had to take painkillers to get to my second appointment. Physio said I was better now the exercise worked and discharged me. Ignored me saying it’s the painkillers. Second time was for arthritis in neck causing arm pains. Wait 9 months for appointment. See physio who gave me an exercise which not only made my arm worse but my fibromyalgia which I had to explain what it was. Suddenly he too discharged me and left no letter for my medical notes. He disappeared mysteriously.

The thing is the Tories were aiming to cut 2 billion from the welfare budget which caused outrage and now Labour have decided to cut 6 billion. I really do hope we see mass protests and outrage but being disabled also means logistical issues for lots of people so many won't be able to attend mass protests. I am in a wheelchair and my husband is having an ablation tomorrow, he is my carer and will not be able to lift or do anything physical for the next two weeks. I cannot attend on my own and I think many disabled people will be in the same boat and want to attend but won't be able to.
I think they will do all they can to fast track this through parliament and threaten to remove the whip if any Labour MP votes against it. What with the DWP able to snoop on bank accounts and now this it really does feel Orwellian. 1984 is meant to be a cautionary tale not an instruction manual.
