Why so much hate on MN?

Let’s see.

Labour are partial to a spot of class warfare, as we know.

My point is that people who need it should receive PIP and people should stop demonising them for it.

Recognising that money helps navigating the system is part of that.

It’s just a new angle. Now PIP to ‘rich people’ is the problem. Labour spin on a dime. Amazing how fast it is. The Guardian helping out there.

If cash switches to services I doubt low or high income receivers will be split into groups. All those in that group will select services rather than get cash.

A link is always appreciated.

Selected c&p without a source needs further detail as a lot can be missed as proven by the articles other posters kindly linked.

What group?

The broadest shoulders have always claimed. Being well off doesn't make you less disabled.

What’s your point?

People can have genuine needs, be assessed by a private doctor and find it easy to get PIP?

And people can have genuine needs, be assessed by the NHS and find it easy to get PIP?

Both can be true.

Does it matter who diagnosed you?

Surely the suffering by someone diagnosed privately is not or a lesser nature than that of someone who was diagnosed by the NHS?

It doesn't say that in those articles

It does say people have genuine needs for PIP.

No it doesn’t contradict that.

It shows how easy it is to get it no matter how you’re diagnosed.

It does exactly that otherwise these people would just go to their GP. Remember that old adage about he who pays the piper calls the tune?

No it doesn’t contradict that.

It shows how easy it is to get it no matter how you’re diagnosed.

No it doesn’t contradict that.

It shows how easy it is to get it no matter how you’re diagnosed.

No it doesn't , it just contradicts the claim that it is so easy to get diagnosed by a NHS GP

Incidentally, its customary to thank posters for bringing content to their attention, rather than criticising them for not posting the entire article etc.

Sometimes it is paywalled - so, you’re welcome.

The content of the article, of course - whether from the DT or Guardian.

Will be interesting to see if Labour now really start down to clamp down on PIP once they are aware that the ‘broadest shoulders’ DC are claiming.

We all know the drill.

So it is easier to get PIP when you are more affluent and can pay for private diagnosis?

Women have to spend 99% of the day smiling and being kind and letting things go and performing good femininity. It's good to have a board to vent our spleen and unleash our most uncharitable thoughts.
