This will more than likey affect you all as under the new rules you will no longer be able to claim DLA for yourself and claim carers, nor will you be able to claim DLA for yourself AND a child.

The new rules and ATOS assessments have been proven to be useless and unless you tick all the boxes in a 20 minute interview in front of a panel you will taken off DLA and put onto JSA or ESA, regardless.
