I am currently claiming PIP and use my PIP money to help pay for a carer. In the next 12 months or so I expect to receive a review letter/form from the DWP. I am worried that if this new pointing system is implemented and the DWP decide that I don't qualify, what is going to happen to me? I suffer from ME/CFS, Fibromyalgia, Raynauds Disease, and Arthritis amongst other things. All this stress and worry doesn't help my conditions. The thought of having to fill in the claim form is bad enough, let alone if I then had to appeal yet again.
But if I had to, I would!!
Gina supported: STOP the new 4 point PIP rule
I receive PIP after having to give up work in my 50’s due to ill health. It’s a lifeline for so many of disabled people . Not a community I wanted or thought I would ever join as I had previously had good health and worked full time. Like most people I took my health for granted. It’s not until you become too ill to work and have to rely on benefits just how degrading the whole process is. PIP is the most degrading process I have ever had to go through

roni supported: STOP the new 4 point PIP rule
I am a benefits adviser working for a charity, I am appalled at these cuts to welfare for sick & disabled people, not just PIP but the sickness benefits too. These changes will plunge people into even greater poverty, increased health crisis & homelessness. It’s devastating for people already struggling with so many challenges, I am truly shocked that this is a Labour Gov
Sara supported: Reform the Recent Changes to Disability Benefits
Although I am a life long Labour member, I completely disagree with these PIP reforms, I receive these payments and struggled very hard against a Conservative government that did it's utmost to prevent me getting it. I cannot believe a Labour government is doing this. Instead of looking at cuts to the vulnerable Close the tax loopholes and make the rich pay their share of the tax burden.
