My blood has been boiling since the start of the week and it’s not cos there’s been some sun!
As much damage as the Conservatives have done to the poor, the elderly and the disabled with a coalition government and a small majority holding them back, imagine what they will do with the predicted 50-100 majority??!
And without a hint of embarrassment or shame, they announced their bribe to us. They will allow people to keep their specially adapted mobility for up to 6 months after they are turned down for PIP! Well that’ll make everything alright won’t it??!!
This is a party that have cut ESA, introduced the bedroom tax that caused a lot of problems for people with carers and separate rooms for medical equipment and brought in PIP to tell us all we’re not disabled enough! And that’s without mentioning the idea of limiting child tax credits to 2 kids unless you can prove you were raped by completing an 8 page document. No doubt you’ll be assessed which we’re assured the DWP will do “sensitively”. Cos the DWP have done a great job of that with ATOS/Capita asking disabled people why they’ve not killed themselves yet haven’t they?!!
My dad thinks I’m worrying too much but after all I went through trying to keep my car, losing it and then fighting to get it back I really don’t want to have to do it again. As they only set limits they could get away with and not what they really wanted, I reckon they’ll squeeze it even more if they get their majority and I as well as others will have to fight again.
So we will soldier on through the next 7 weeks hoping for the best, hoping people remember just how far the UK has sunk and says no more!!
Down with PIP 
And I thought it was scary for us on disability with Trump as president. Luckily at this point his bill was dropped that would have put fear into everyone on disability. It’s scary don’t they understand what they are doing to us?

These are scary times all over! Watched what Trump was gonna do and was glad it never got through. This ruling party has declared disabled people fit to work and stopped their aid and within 6 weeks of being told this about 200,000 have died! It’s a cull on the disabled and their mobility cars, it’s just been horrible these past few years ☹️
