I wrote to them all Timms starmer reeves Kendall and amongst explaining that although they may not care about the sick and disabled they should care about their votes at the next election. I told them look on the scope forums and comments on YouTube. Ppl are terrified and desperate. We aren’t fakers . Funnily enough I just watched YouTube and Starmer is apparently banning YouTube content creators from giving advice. Obviously nothing to do with my emails but they’re covering all bases . It also said they’re starting with 18-24 by April

As long as he doesn't come dressed up 🤭🫢😉. I booked mine mine last year, not the date I'm glad to say 🤣 Wicker coffin, a lift to the wildflower meadow plonk me in, facing East, no service, job done. He knows where all my dogs and mum and dads ashes are which are coming in with me. I like planning and being organised don't like leaving anything to chance ha ha.

Indeed. Wrong tree, wrong forest. I happy however to let them fall on their respective swords. Keir is so busy being the new Winston Churchill that I think the fine print has bypassed him.
He’ll shaft Reeves who will in turn shaft Kendall.. like three rats in a bag( with apologies to rats)

hi Catherine , like everyone I’m worried about tmrw. They truly are evil . And Timms seems to have kept a low profile cos of the backlash that’s coming . I just saw something on YouTube that said he thinks they’re going after the 18-24 first and expect them to be in work or training by April . Obviously starmers “ friend” needs to buy him new glasses cos we already in march

Where are people seeing Timms saying 18-24 year olds need to be in work/training by April?
The Green Paper consultation won’t have even finished by then

There banning the tik tok etc for giving advice, scaming mobility cars. Timms is pathetic. He hasn't stuck up for us. Our jobcentre closed, due to unstable roof.

basically it’s the protest vote
Strategic voting worked but that huge majority gave power they shouldn’t have.
Aim one is to not vote in a way that gives any party a massive majority in votes or seats (unless labour sort themselves out by 2029 then the 2/3 major parties are all unvoteable)
Aim two - use your vote even if in your area the winning party is locked
Lastly vote for a party you feel comfortable doing so even if there’s no chance it will alter the seat result - the Lib Dem’s being the 3rd biggest party currently are probably the ‘tactical protest vote’ but I know that many scope members would buy Kendall’s flowers before voting Lib Dem.
If that’s the case - England based, vote greens - Scotland based, consider snp - wales based, see if Plaid Cymru is a fit
The 2024 ge was about voting with your head - in the 2029 ge it may be best off left to the heart

I don’t know. I watched Dynamic duo on YouTube. He’s usually pretty good . Take a Quick Look as I’m sure he mentioned where he got info from but my minds frazzled

yes I just saw that on YouTube. And I know some ppl don’t like the advice given out but the ones I’ve seen are not telling ppl to con the system just how you fill out the form. Thing is the assessors are against us and want to trip us up . I know it’s happened twice to me , even at tribunal. So these videos give knowledge where the government don’t want us to have .

I think done right it could be a good thing. If they put money into MH etc for the young from school age . Help them with apprenticeships. If no threat of lose of benefits and made VOLUNTARY. But there will still be young ppl unable to work and they still have the right to a decent life .

The Greens and Reform will win a lot of seats in the next election, that's my prediction. Tories are going nowhere, Tories are defecting to Reform and the Greens will outflank Labour on the Left.

I just watched it — thanks! (Also he seems really good — need to watch some of his other stuff later!)
So yeah he did say that.. but I’m confused as to whether that means changes to LCWRA as well, or if it does mean changes but for new claimants only.But most importantly — how the fk is she going to get EVERY 18-24 year old into education/work in a few weeks? Logistically how would that even work?

my MP is corbyn and he’s going no where. Unfortunately he’s no longer in labour so I don’t know how much power he has as an independent

think you will find government scope have and are making cuts to save money

I'm reading all what Kendall and Timms have been saying and it just comes across as nonsense, about TikTok or Mobility scooters and getting 18-24 year olds to work by April.

Out of Timms mouth this afternoon “we are dealing with incentives for inactivity” so I’ve taken that as the payment you get for being on LCWRA is an incentive to get into that group .. extra money!
It's because they CAN'T WORK. They're twisting the whole reason why people are signed off, it's really disingenuous.
