Reform want to cut PIP

[Daygloboo]

Reform want to cut benefits for disabled people. They want businesses to pay more towards sickness etc. I find it repulsive that they want to do this. When will people understand that they are a bunch of self interested sharks who want to make a stack of dosh for themselves while in govt and that they font give a damn about anyone in need. Why cant the most vulnerable ppl who vote for them see thus. It's astonishing. It's ac joke. I eish ppl who get what Reform.iscreally about and how it manipulates would make sn extra effort to tslk to.ppl who dont seem to get it.

There are not enough jobs for people who are able to work.

This government is coasting along more concerned with environmental change than what's happening under its nose
The next government..will have a shit show to sort out ,thanks to this government and the previous one

And they are slways the perfect parents of their hypothetical disabled children never putting a foot wrong.

It would probably be more if employers were willing to employ them but many don't purely on the basis that it work cost them in lost production due to the employee needing more time off. If you have a non-disabled person and a disabled person both up for the same job with equal amount of experience then take a wild guess at the candidate most likely to get the job.

This.

The NO rise was a stealth tax is all we’ve heard.

But now businesses to to find money to insure employees against illness to be able to fund sick pay for up to 2 years.

And of course - if you have to pay sick pay you’re absolutely going to take on someone with a history of illness and disability.

Yoj can’t make it up 🙄

Impressive how you've single handedly cured anxiety though. Maybe you should somehow patent your idea? You'd make a bomb.

Possibly because he is recovering? He had a heart operation a few months back

Re: your bathroom, have you approached your local council? It probably varies from area to area but there are grants available. My local council offers interest free loans if you own your house, which are paid back when your house is eventually sold. I wish you all the best ❤️

So why are so many arriving on work visas .. supermarkets and chicken shops classed as skilled work and bringing people over ...don't make me laugh

Clueless am I? I am a Court of Protection appointed Deputy for a severely disabled relative with a lifelong disabilty from birth. I deal with all of his care via Direct Payments and deal with Social Services and the NHS over his needs. My grandparents cared for him without a penny off the state till they died. I know more than you think you just don't like the fact they system is currently RIDICULOUS!!!!!

That is a whole separate issue.
What jobs are all the disabled people who will be chucked off benefits meant to do?

Only one in five of whom work?

Then I stand corrected.
However, it seems that the Government (and I don't know which one) dropped a blooper there.
It is amazing that in designing a state pension system in the 21st century, the government had to include special rules to protect women affected by a rule designed in the 1940s.
Positively, women who paid the reduced stamp at any point in the 35 years before they retired, and who come under the new State Pension system, can claim a minimum payment under the new system.
So, if any woman is getting a substantially reduced amount from the new State Pension, she should check if she paid the reduced stamp and contact the Pension Service if she is in any doubt.

People? Those scrounging babies not out working

I think people are seriously uninformed about the reform voter. Working class people fed up of working hard and taxes going to the bone idol. Not people on pip and claiming benefits as those are labour supporters. There is a massive proportion of young people out of work and claiming benefits it's beyond a joke. Pip is there to help those who really need it to work absolutely not millions of lazy people with some mild depression. Reform voters are majority ex Conservatives like myself who are fed up with fake promises of sorting the country out. Although I am being drawn back in by Kemi she seems to have her head screwed on.

Of course! Just like the best parents are those with no children, those best placed to manage a life with disabled children are those without any experience of it whatsoever, yet oh so happy to share their expertise with those actually living it.

And of course colleagues complaining that the person with disabilities needs reasonable adjustments that they don’t get, or that they need time off that they don’t get, or can’t work as fast as they do etc etc. No one can see anyone getting any kind of support or concession without having a moan about it.

We’ve even had people on this thread say they’d pay multiple times more to provide formal care, just so that a parent goes out to work, despite it making no economic sense. People have lost their minds.

Yes. CLUELESS.

You might know all about your relative’s disability and needs.

But you know absolutely fuck all about anyone else’s. Therefore you have no right to spout ignorant venom such as “Not in the same way as those that are truly disabled” as if someone made you the director of decisions on who’s deserving and who’s not.

I am totally embarrassed for you.

The Unclean? Or something like that.

Not people on pip and claiming benefits as those are labour supporters

Ahem.

For as long as you refuse to see why a normal, educated, reasonable person might be drawn to Reform, you are never going to get your point across.

People are claiming PIP for ridiculous issues such as hypermobility and mental health issues such as anxiety. It's an absolute piss take!!! It also does not help those who are anxious etc to be paid to sit at home and wallow in their "disability" FFS people need to see the system for what it is including things such as Motability where family members are added to the cars it is an absolute JOKE.

Well it's wrong and must be stopped! If they can sit up unaided, they can work. Not talking about the deserving cases, those under 6 months must be protected.

I’m sorry but educated and reasonable are doing some heavy lifting if you come to the conclusion that Reform are the country’s best hope.

Bone Idol .. wasn't that one of Simon Cowell's shows?
