That’s an awful lot of work Catherine - it’s not a one person job and though I’m reading more and more members wanting to be proactive I’m not reading many of those offering to help with the legwork
I don’t want share details but there’s a serious amount going on in my personal life right now excluding everything going on in uk politics right now (somehow everything has landed in a condensed 3-4 month period to create the perfect storm - and I’m only a month through - definitely makes the top 5 most difficult points of my life) - I know it’s more a case of when rather than if that I burn myself out (autism overload) and have some type of nervous breakdown as I’m burying my feelings and trying to push through fuelled by anger & fear - don’t know when things will explode and catch up with me……could be next month, could be tomorrow
Bottom line is I know im not the right person to ‘carry the torch’ (there are more respected scope members and activists outside of scope) - my aim is to light the flame and prehaps help construct the torch…………but leave it to others to carry it (you know when before the olympics the torch is carried from past host to current host via a massive relay? - disabled do get easily overwhelmed so this analogy seems appropriate)

So that's confirmation from a legal expert that all this can go through without legislation....
This means they can 'fast track' and they will 'fast track'.
We are absolutely screwed.

I can't see 80 of them going against Starzy because they are to self serving and seem to think more about their status than the disabled community.
As far as I am aware no Liebour MP has spoken against these proposals.

My opinion is that political parties in all countries of the world are simply a protective screen for bureaucrats, who are also called the "deep state". If the "deep state" screws up badly, they simply change the titular leaders at elections, but the bureaucrats remain the same.

I actually feel numb to it all like us all been on such a rollercoaster my body shutdown to it I'm inprotection mode it's unstable to live under such pressure no one would never believe it unless suffered it never believe the impact it has it's very cruel but hey worked for centuries and they obviously love the power I do believe they will be challenged big time

please check it out and see if I heard correctly as it doesn’t make sense . I thought a green paper was a consultation, even the Tory paper asked our opinions . Also if they want to stop LCWRA extra money isn’t that the same as Tory’s which was found unlawful. If it’s all based on the Tory’s not running a risk assessment, well doesn’t seem to gave either .

someone legal on YouTube said if the 80 back benchers vote against and lose the whip is could cause problems for Starmer and possibly a vote of no confidence. He said if more vote against it will damage his majority . Let’s hope they stand by their principles on this. The youtuber who watched some of Ellen Clifford said he got the impression it was someone who doesn’t agree to the cuts that leaked it . No proof but that’s his opinion. It’s so stressful it’s taken me since Sunak to feel a bit better than this . Hope you’re ok Catherine and not too stressed x

Hi there and welcome to the community.
Unfortunately none of us know the answer to that yet.
There is another thread on the forum about this.
Take a look around and join us on there.
