I agree with others; it's giving them further opportunity down the line to beat single parents and people with disabilities harder, to force them into either more poverty or into back breaking, impossible jobs under threat of all support being taken from them. Since when have sanctions been seen as fair, accurate and supportive? They are punitive, often made in error or in unreasonable situations and cause more harm than good.
ESA and the UC assessment was put in place to assess how a person's ability to work was affected. DLA and PIP was for difficulty in daily living. It was not used for work assessments because the two things are incompatible. Yes you might struggle to wash and care for yourself, or make journeys; but you might on the other hand be able to operate a computer. And visa versa. PIP is also meant for long-term conditions; being unable to work for several months because you are struggling with your mental health because you have come out of a dv situation, for example, would not entitle to you to PIP but would have given you a breather for a while from looking for work under the ESA and UC assessments. That same person will also be forced into work even if they have young children they are struggling to look after and cannot find 'wrap around' care out of hours, holidays etc. Help with nursery is fine but what happens when they reach school age? And I also agree with @Bloopsie ; we are too desperate to get mums back into work.
Not to mention that the places simply won't be there, as many in the sector have stated. It's the hospitals all over again.
For me, this budget has almost nothing. But that doesn't bother me. I want a budget to work for the country, not me. But the lack of anything for the NHS, Education, transport, social care, etc, etc makes me really angry; let alone the giving £s to their mates again. I'd best shut up now, I think!
