It’s not about saving money, it’s about tyranny.
Clamp down on rich tax dodgers
well said I agree
Simply unbelievable. Death by civil servant pen holders 😢
How much does foreign aid cost a year this is where the savings can be made so our elderly don't have to freeze and starve to death just an idea
in 2021 it was £14.5 Billion in foreign aid .... the 2023/2024 current spend is at £7.2 Billion and rising.
I now understand why my appeal in court with a judge and Doctor was denied this week, DWP has kept me thinking I was going to be able to convince an appeal board after waiting Ten months to gain access to LCWRA. SO they are scheming, deceptive overlords. By what you have said today, I’m going to have to fight for PIP just prove that I’m not fit for work.
But could possibly loose all my benefits. I currently receive LCW, but it would seem not for much longer, a lot of this nonsense could sorted if they bothered to use the money they waste on appeals and tribunals to actually doing a proper physical examination, and not useless telephone interviews with a HCP, WHO HAS NEVER MET OR SEEN ME. THIS IS JUST DISRESPECTFUL .
Its not fair that people who have never paid tax or national insurance can claim it
Nice video dumbfounded stopping people money for 3 basic needs food,bills and a roof boils my blood this nation.
Immigration costing billions not one penny stopped more given daily
Thats so they have a foreign based standing army to enforce compliance when they deliver their next round of planned lockdowna
Nonsense
Thankyou so much for your hard work and dedication for helping people who otherwise would be clueless to what's going on behind the scenes as such. I'm worrying myself half to death with the thought of losing money etc. things are difficult as it is. Life is already hard with chronic illness and poor mental health and all this really isn't helping. But if not for you I would have no idea of these proposals...thankyou
your welcome and i feel that pain it's awful it truly is :(
I'm being put through the wringer again by the DWP over something that it out of my control, and it's really screwing me over. I had my benefits stopped for a reason I will not go in to but it was not my fault, and I have a million hoops to jump through to get it reinstated. I am seriously sick right now, and they know it. I'm unable to get out, even getting out of bed is a struggle. How I am going to post this evidence they need I don't know. I hate this country.
What was the reason they stopped your benefits are you on ESA, UC i deal with this on a daily basis and some are seriously mentally unwell sorry the DWP did this
Labour are tory lite
Take it out the most needed people and fund the MPs second house heating bills and holidays in Ibiza excellent idea.
This is disgusting they are playing and toying with people lifes they don't give a dam .
It's really frustrating how the LCWRA payments were scrapped for those who claimed ESA or UC after April 2012. 😤 The changes meant that contribution-based ESA was limited to 365 days unless you were in the Support Group. This left many people without the financial support they needed, pushing them to rely on income-related ESA, which not everyone qualifies for. It's tough to see how these changes have affected so many vulnerable individuals who depend on this support to manage their health and well-being. Let's hope for more compassionate policies in the future! 🤞
My mental health is so bad that I don't even know what benefits I'm entitled to and there is virtually no help to figure it all out. It's completely unacceptable!
If you have been signed off sick by a doctor for more than five consecutive weeks, you are able to apply for any sickness related benefit under universal credits by filling in a uc50 form. This is then to reward you an assessment in the hopes of claiming lcwra which under universal Credit is an extra £410 a month
You are also able to claim for pip that any mental health conditions that affect your day-to-day living or mobility issues.
If you need any assistance in applying for these benefits, I would strongly recommend using websites like Turn2us or Entitled2 as these are free and offer guidance in doing so 😊
Completely understand where you're coming from. Reading information can be overwhelming. Filling out forms is nigh on impossible when suffering poor mental health, many don't have insight into how ill they really are. Not everyone has friends or family who fully understand how debilitating this is. Outreach services are non existent in some areas and patients are being discharged from cmht's. Try and find an understanding gp who will support you and give guidance. Stay strong, one step at a time.
If you ask at the doctors or pharmacy for the local social prescriber they should be able to help you contact services. Or pop into your local community centre as they often hold benefit/debt advice days. Always the citizen advice bureau too. Do a quick google or facebook search for local help groups.
I don't know if your local council and GP surgeries have this option, where I am I was referred after online sessions with someone off the GP surgery although this council GP thing is also self refer where I live. I've had mental health and physical issues for many years. Even though I had recieved finally a pip award that was right and got a years back pay, due to some of my mental health issues I struggle to spend it and to find services to help me from trusted places. Having been refered to "going local - social prescribing" I am finally being linked up with places I can turn to for help both free and paid via pip money. Having been struggling for literally forever and entirely reliant on family I am finally getting close to the help I need to survive. They honestly have been a complete life line and there are loads of things they can help with. Which includes linking you to people that can help with benefit claims etc. Please take a look at your local council or nhs trust or both and see if you can self refer, I fact anyone who is struggling to find the right services or people to help you see if your area run this. Mine is a link up between the local council and the GP practices.
Oh I meant to add that my local one covers both mental health and physical issues, they are there to link you to the right people and services etc. Out of all my decades of struggling it's been one of the best for actually letting me know what's avaliable and how to access it. They work on a short term basis think 3 to 6 months but they direct it towards what you need, what help you need to access things and also provide support.
Labour are being very quiet about this.
Surely this is unlawful what they’re doing ?
I mean what happens when if someone deemed “fit for work “ has some sort of accident/injury or God forbid DEATH! Due to having been found fit for work by said unqualified people at the job centre or wherever it’s carried out . ?
I’m sure I can see court cases coming up . Or am I missing something??
Every one in the work place is responsible for their own & every ones safety . Most sick & disabled are on medication of some type including strong opiate pain killers . I can’t see how that doesn’t contravene the health & safety in the workplace regs about being under the influence of alcohol or drugs in the workplace . I also reckon it would void any companies public liability insurance & any other insurance policies they have , if a sick or disabled employee on medication suffered or caused an accident or death whilst at work . I think both Tory & Labour governments ,in their rush to force genuine sick & disabled persons into employment or training , have not stopped to really think this one out .
Thanks Rich. Your info is so helpful. I appreciate the updates. Giving people a voice when they have no clue where to discuss their feelings & opinions.
Saying this for years, so many out-of-touch pip assessors, advisors, and work coaches with zero empathy, heart, or skills also unqualified lack of the basic knowledge is customer engagement. All they do is break you down to pieces. If you don't suffer from mental health, they will put you into claiming pip.
I’m being confident it doesn’t happen it’s too dangerous to combine the two but let’s see next month when liz Kendal announces the changes.
shes a dangerous character my friend.
@@DynamicDuoUK Ain’t they all but have some hope.
But PIP and ESA/UC are two totally different things. Many people on PIP are working but need the support for an adapted car or Taxis to get to work as just a couple of examples. ESA/UC is for those out of work or too ill to work. So, what they're saying is, if you don't need the extra help that PIP provides, you are also fit to work in general. This is why they have been kept separate. FFS! What is the matter with politicians?
Excellent video again.
All by design? Prove me wrong.
Pretty much! Decided to use a new camera today because apparently it was faulty. Appears I fixed it now!
Thanks Rich, always helpful and appreciated.
My pleasure!
Thanks so much for the updates and explanations as well!
Any time!
I am retired I get. Pip enhanced on mobility and daily living I had to stop work at 40 I’ve got primary progressive MS,it’s so hard to deal with constant nerve pain get short of breath anxiety depression fatigue
Thank you, thank you, thank you 🙏🏼. Once again invaluable information 🎉
You are so welcome!
They don't care the stress they cause people.Im dreading the Migration notice in my post box.
I'm on UC with the LCWRA element at the minute
Hello there, I am actually worried sick about this. I feel I have no rights and feel very isolated. Im on the lower rate PIP Ishould have appealed as I cannot walk unaided. I am too afraid to rock the boat with trying to get my full entitlement. My tax credit stopped and UC filled me with dread what will I do with vouchers how do I pay for what essentials I need. I really despair of this country. WE ARE NO LONGER THOUGHT OF AS HUMAN BEINGS🥲🥲
The vouchers was a Conservative idea, that has gone now!
more homeless people to come and then imagrants will move in.
Nonsense
@susannahhunt100 How is it nonsense? My Nan said that charity begins at home. We need to look after our own first. Many Asylum Seekers have become Doctors and Nurses and propped up our NHS. We do need them as the system would collapse. They are more likely to want to work than our lot and embrace education as they see it as a privilege. However there are darker sides to them as we really don't know if they have criminal records. The system needs to prioritise skill shortages.
@@paganartisan I didn't realise your Nan ruled the World, my apologies.
Immigrants
@susannahhunt100 She's dead and ruled my world and was a very sensible lady
Thanks for this. Truly appreciate all you do.
I had my PIP stopped recently even though my health has got worse. I am currently going through the reconsideration process. I am not holding my breath. DWP will do anything to prove that your disability/sickness does not exist any more. Sick/disabled are always governments easy targets
I had a similar situation, then I had a phone call out of the blue after I lodged my appeal, where they admitted they made a mistake and reinstated my benefits. But the DWP being the DWP give with one hand and take with the other. Recently I had my benefits stopped for no fault of my own. They will find any tiny little excuse then make you beg for your money back by forcing you to jump through hoops and provide evidence you didn't break any rules. It's never ending with them, I have serious health issues, and frankly, I don't think I have long left. I certainly hope I don't because I'm done with living in this country, and this planet. I just wish I wasn't a coward so I could go out on my own terms.
This is disgusting and it's happening to a lot of people. Quite frankly, it angers me because a disability or an illness doesn't just disappear overnight.
I don't get why the DWP use these assessors. They are absolutely ridiculously bad at their jobs.
Can we all cast our minds back? David Cameron got DLA (now PIP) for his disabled son. I genuinely believe the poor boy had the needs, but not the financial necessity. We are allegedly, and I sometimes wonder, as a compassionate populate and are also financially competent player in world politics - how in the name of reason are we having these conversations.
Katie price has always claimed full pip for her son too. She was on loose women saying why shouldn't she claim it. She also got her loval authority to pay for a free taxi to take him back and forth his private school. Just pure greed by rich people.
David Cameron has a disabled son yet hated the disabled and turn the press and public on us sick and disabled.
We were demonized and the press ends neighbours to hate and snitch up poor Stewart with ceribal palsey for walking his dog etc.
@@sandyp196 If she is legally entitled to it, then why shouldn't she claim it? The law applies to everyone equally, or at least it should. We can''t blast Two Tier Starmer's selective policing one minute, then complain about rich people claiming disability benefits they are legally entitled to the next. That makes us just as hypocritical.
@EgoChip it is a choice to claim it. For people with millions in the bank, they could support their own family without help from the state.
@@sandyp196 absolutely spot on. There is need and then there is greed.
I'm honestly fed up with how the system handles autism and PIP rates. It's frustrating to live with autism and only qualify for the lower rates, while it seems like some people who might not face the same daily challenges are getting the Enhanced rate. It feels like the system is skewed and doesn't truly understand the spectrum of needs that come with autism. Why should those of us who genuinely struggle every day be overlooked while others seem to navigate the system more successfully? Labour should really step up and reform this to ensure fair support for everyone who needs it! 😤
the system has no level ground or consistency, there are people with extremely bad conditions on the lower end and then some with minor conditions on the higher awards, theres just no in between and this is simply down to the assessors none of them sing of the same sheet nor does the dwp.
@@DynamicDuoUKSo true, I know of someone who walks 2 miles a day as needs to loose weight due to heart condition, but gets a Motobility car. Infact know of two people who can walk far more than 50 metres who get cars. It’s all down to the assessor on the day.
I have to get help with my claims. Whenever I have gone alone, the assessors knew they could get away with more dirty tricks to "fail" me. Whenever I had someone with me, the outcomes were always different.
well I am 70% blind, tumore removed I got refuse pip, I won on court enhanced rate when I won pip DWP try to remove my ESA I won in court again for ESA, after 2 years I start getting pay benefits, last year they try to remove some point on renewal pip, they know my sicknest will not get better they still call me for renewal every 4 years
@@ange5673 A lot of the scoring now for mobility vehicles are based on if you can plan a route of a journey or not. If you can show that you can't plan one safely or follow on safely without a person assisting you, then it's an instant 12 points.
The remaining two points you generally get from the walking distance. That's what usually helps get the mobility vehicles and a lot of assessors will automatically give those two points because they know the people want the car and the enhanced rate.
That seems to be the only way to get the enhanced rate which is absolutely absurd.
It makes no sense to combine the 2 in that LCWRA is for being too ill to work but PIP helps people with disability/health issues whether or not they work e.g. providing adapted vehicle so they can access work. It does make sense to share info between WCA and PIP assessments so it costs less money overall and reduces the amount spent on benefits without reducing the amount people get or stopping people from accessing those benefits. Even my disability coach said they have to double the back end processes because if someone already on PIP they are getting them to fill out a massive and very similar form and have WCA (with added costs for appealing wrong decisions) and making them wait 4 months to get paid the extra LCWRA when you could spend a lot less just taking the relevant info from PIP forms and assessment seeing as it's not breaching any confidentiality with them both being in the same department. I'm guessing that as parliament not been in session all August nothing has been set in stone as it would require bills and that Labour are unlikely to announce any changes until the budget in October so they don't cause the sort of panic the green paper did like getting hundreds of thousands of people putting in PIP claims in case that policy came in. Crossing fingers but not holding my breath!
Hi Rich & Cara I’m a relatively new sub & your channel is a great help…I’m one of those 42% who had their pip renewal cancelled…just going through the ‘reconsideration’ process …🙏
sorry to hear that it is awful, i dont get how the dwp or its so called " assessors " can justify cutting someones benefit if their condition remains or has worsened... logic doesnt fix well with the dwp...
I'm on pip and contribution . My wife works so if they means test pip i will lose it. We have a mortgage and so struggle with paying everything as it is. It's making me very ill thinking about it. Shockingly cruel by these politicians. What they need to do is tighten the criteria so only genuinely disabled get it. There's been far too many people over the years fraudulently claiming to be disabled.
I don’t think this is as big a problem as many think it is BUT .. even if it was really could you blame people minimum wage pay or barely over work like a dog in mainly service jobs as barely any manufacturing left bad working conditions zero hour contracts. Need I go on ? 😢
I could cry, tears are stinging my eyes 😢just feel sick and numb if they take my benefits they can pay for me to go to psychiatric ward.
I'm on uc and had my assessment and was put on lwc with no extra money I applied and now I have to go to a tribunal to try and get extra money
Hi Rich & Cara I’m a relatively new sub to your channel…thank you for explaining & bringing us the news…I’m one of the 42% who had pip renewal cancelled…just going through the ‘reconsideration’ process 🤦♀️🙏
Thank you for saying hi! We appreciate you taking the time to watch our content!
Good luck. I really hope you get through it with the right result.
Have you any advice for anyone going to tribunal....this case is an eye-opener, it needs whistleblown!! . IM OUT OF MY DEPTH HERE
Thanks Richard for great information hope you all have a great weekend chris
How can this be allowed. The pip assessment are evil
Thanks Rich, hope you, Cara and sausages have a great weekend ❤
You are so welcome, have a good weekend :)
You wouldn’t go to a lollypopman if needed a tooth out or a filling so why would we go to a job centre job advisor for a medical assessment for fitness to sork or not., you couldn’t make this up
I love how they call them assesment centres too... In reality it's a spy on you centre 🤣
@@DynamicDuoUK trouble is they ignore consultants reports and medical records from doctors as they get a bonus for every cured disabled person they find a job for or get them off benefits it’s a win win,win for them
thanks for the information bud. Hope you're both well
It's concerning how the pandemic has led to a surge in PIP claims, with some people only applying because they became aware of the benefits during this time. It raises questions about whether the system is being overwhelmed or even taken advantage of by those who might not have considered applying before. While it's crucial for people to get the support they need, there’s also a worry that this sudden increase could strain resources and impact those who genuinely rely on PIP for long-term health issues. It’s a complex situation that definitely sparks debate! 🤔
It's a tricky one as there may be a bit of that going on but I think the system has clogged itself with pip reviews and also migration from legacy benefits to pip.. I know mainstream media and politicians want to make it someone's fault other than a broken system which does not work and costs a lot to go through appeals and tribunal processes. More common sense and less bureaucrats needed imo ❤
Lots of people are still suffering from the pandemic too, long covid is a very real thing. It's kind of interesting how LC gets taken more seriously than CFS that was triggered by a virus does. When they are both probably the same thing. Well, we can only hope that any research in to LC can benefit those who already have CFS/ME. But I am not holding my breath, eventually LC will just be relegated to the same bin that CFS is in by the ignorant.
@@EgoChip I saw on BBC news the other day a couple with LC where the guy "had his LC turn into ME" (never explained who decided on definitions) and his partner was kicking off about how little research and treatment there is for ME - where were you guys when we've been screaming into the void about this and been given trials that show treatments on offer don't work but cherry picked comments made them mandatory for 17 years? I am also trying to get rid of the term CFS as a) it was coined by US insurance companies to avoid paying out for ME and b) people often conflate it with chronic fatigue which is deemed by WHO to be mental health issue and is a symptom, much like chronic pain, and use it to say ME is all mental health rather than a neurological disorder as categorised by WHO. What Doctors Don't Tell You argued when you google chronic fatigue you often get articles on CFS so must be the same so I sent them the Wikipedia and WHO definitions so they stop putting out misinformation. Eg Bart's used to have CFS/ME (meant to be ME/CFS but only seems to be switched round in some NHS situations) housed in Psychotrauma department on 1st floor with no lifts and you had to request a ground floor room, one of the "specialists" was involved with the PACE trial, I was told it was biopsychosocial by them, they never attended Invest in ME conferences and one told me ME is more tiredness and fibromyalgia is more pain and was surprised when I told him you can have both and there have been MRI scans showing the difference between people with ME, fibromyalgia, depression and "normal" controls. Sorry, for the militant outburst and thank you for supporting us!
@@honeymckinley9357I also have ME and fibromyalgia. Was given the now debunked treatments of CBT , GET. Plus medication that doesn’t work. Since the green paper I’ve been in a set back , so fatigued I’m either resting or asleep. Headaches pain all over and arthritis in neck made worse by fibromyalgia pain . I told my previous assessor this can’t improve or be cured , things get worse as you age . She recommended review two years . DWP increased it to three years. My conditions get worse after each assessment.
@@honeymckinley9357As someone who’s been diagnosed with all of the above at different stages of my life over 30years (depending on what the latest terminology was) I agree with everything you just said!
Good update and information richard thanks 😊
Here is some more information that everyone is going too experience food and energy shortages in the near future we are going to see a hyperinflationary depression by design and they'll force everyone into the tokenised slavery system which is going to be payed based on a credit score system
Good morning rich a nd cara❤😊
Hey hey!
Peanuts taken to fill a rich person's coconut expenses.
How can they merge them ? Pip is not an out of work benefit ? I get mobility pip and I work , I used the money for my vehicle (which I had to change to fit a wheelchair).
I think there sponsorship of pineapples should be cut
100% ! billions being waisted on pineapples every dam year now and the rest of us have to suffer.
Disability payments in one sense are also related to the state pension, which are somewhat relevant to me at age 53 - in recent decades the state pension has become a benefit that needs to be applied for (which never happened to previous generations) and at one point it was even subject to tax, now they want to means test the state pension - it is almost a certainty that in the coming years the state pension age will increase to at least age 70, possibly age 75 or even 80 in the U.K. alone, but in my case, it will be irrelevant to me, because I will effectively be forced to work well past retirement age, even with any physical or mental health issues, regardless if I remain in the U.K. or move back to Ireland - either way, I will almost certainly face a very bleak future in retirement - this also raises serious questions about the entire benefits system in general in the next few decades, regardless of whether or not the U.K. economy and the benefits system collapses, is it really going to be the case that even the concept of both the state pension and all other sickness, disability and other benefits for people who are not working will eventually be scrapped, but it will be done gradually by changing the rules constantly - noticing these patterns and trends over several years and decades in both Ireland and here in the U.K. makes one really wonder if this is the general direction of travel, which is also a similar story regarding private and works pensions - all of this, coupled with recent plans by Labour to privatise the NHS, are both worrying and an important indicator of how the U.K. and Ireland is losing its moral compass when it comes to elderly, sick and disabled people in particular
Thank you, Rich, for this useful info! Hi to Cara 😊
What they don't tell you about transitional protection is it gets deducted by the benefits cap.
Im on contribution based esa support group and lcwra uc , i get 809 pound a month , i dont get pip so obviously this is very worring for me and people in my situation as i would loose the lcwra component if i didn't qualify for pip , im not in anyway optimistic about this government but in my own opinion snd thats all it is i dont think this will happen , its just to dangerous , i honestly don't think they could get away with it , its too extreme and very dangerous , i honestly think there would be alot of pusback on it , again jist an opinion
That's a very fair comment mate and thank you for putting it. You are correct though. This would be very dangerous so therefore I hope and pray this doesn't happen for people, but with the way the world is at the moment I'm not holding out any hopes.
But I'll cross everything including toes!
What about the Bullet train we do not need in this country. That train is costing Billions of pounds.
What is wrong with our government?
I will take my life if the government keeps pushing. I have no family, no friends and I am 100% isolated. I am sick of the attacks. I am too unwell and tired to take anymore of this. My life has been taken from me. I didn't ask for this life changing illness. What's more, the nursing team did not tend to my needs and I was found unconscious nearly dead in my apartment. I now have sepsis on top of my other life changing illness. The doctor told me I was hours away from death. The nursing team did this to me and now I am weaker, need a walking stick around my apartment and no solicitor will touch my case of serious negligence by the nurses because the government has put a stop to any legal mishaps from the NHS.
I am done with this F😮😮ING life. I don't go out because I am medically housebound. I have not been out of my apartment since March 2020. Cannot find a girlfriend either. My life is over and the government wants to cut my money???
Tax the rich. End that unnecessary Bullet train and go after the money thieves from different countries who falsely claim benefits. Stop bullying the poor, aged and disabled. It is disgusting.
Try and keep calm, the government aren't after your PIP. You are deserving of it. Don't read all the rubbish in news papers either. Wait until the facts are released!

Im very worried when it comes to claim Universal Credit or Pip heard nothing about either or Esa no letters on either benefit .
They will be offering M. A. I. D, like they do in Canada next.
Much as many are against that, I hope they do. Only with strict and proper checks in place. I would without hesitation take it. Only ive been trying to end my life for decades and failed many times. Only alive out of fear of sectioning if it goes wrong and the actual suffering needed to take your own life in the UK. Nobody though should be offered it without many efforts made to provide someone a life worth living. It should only ever be the final offer on the table should the person want it, when everything else has failed.

Question: Pension Credit as a new state pensioner I don't get pension credit as it above pension credit level. All my life I have been both a unionist and a Labour supporter.
After this I will never ever vote Tory or Labour, there word cannot be Trusted.
That’s why they raised the basic state pension , so it took you just above the threshold for claiming a pension credit top up . They never give with one hand , unless they can take more back with the other hand . That goes for all governments .
Very crafty Government making sure the new pensions you cannot get Pension credits.

Parliament soon goes into recess for party “conference” season. And reopens on the 7th October and from what I’ve read that on that date there’ll be questions to the Secretary of State for DWP(Liz Kendall) or Stephen Timms minister for Social Security and Disability! We may learn more on the green paper then!! Ps Disability News Service is a good site.
Pps they were due to hand over the department the book by John Pring of DNS to the people at Westminster for all labour MPs in a prearranged meeting. But they were blocked and prevented and only after disability activists including families members highlighted in the book protested that the officials relented(at one point they were told they’d have to send the books to all MPs by the Royal Mail). Which at the outrageous cost of stamps would have been several hundreds of pounds! Hope you’re both well and doggoes are out of the bad books!..
Expect toe worst, and hope for slightly less worse. That's all we can do. This government hates us all, and will do nothing to help us.
I read that on the news this morning that they was blocked but after standing protests they allowed it.
Absolutely annoying and frustrating that nobody seems to want to listen to the cruelty that the DWP do to people in this country.
Hope you're good and thank you for the comment. Take care my friend. Speak soon
Thing is, PIP is being replaced by ADP, here in Scotland. So does this mean that people in Scotland will be left out?
Great question
@@mrnice7570 they can't leave Scotland out of getting the additional heath element of UC. Cause if they cut Scottish people off from getting it cause ADP isn't PIP, all the more reason I want independence
They are going to do what they can to save money. So i reckon they will do the voucher thing. They will probably do the assement thing as well, even though it doesnt make any sense practically. Its just anothwr hoop to make it difficult to claim.
As i said previously. You are going to get alot of sick people, who will not get benefit. But they are so disabled, they will not in a practical way be able to earn money. They will fall throigh the crack.
I have been on ESA support group since 2017 and just completed my pip renewal been awarded enchanted on both till 2027 waiting to be migrated over to universal credit how will this affect me please

Limited capability for work and work-related activity, should actually be £416, Rich...😉
Wait what the increased it by 6 quid ! Someone at the DWP realising that it cost £6 for a kebab 🤑😜😜
@@DynamicDuoUK 🤣 Yep! They'll try anything to get a free kebab.

Unemployment figures would drop if you took away most of these payments.
Idiotic comment. 1) a high percentage of people on PIP work full time but have serious disabilities for which they need support. 2) To get ESA you have to go through rigorous work capability assessments on a regular basis. 3) You don't understand unemployment. Obviously. Current unemployment is 4.2%. The third lowest amount for decades. A common mistake people also make when looking at unemployment figures (currently 1.44 million people) is that they think it's the same people all the time; whereas an extremely high percentage of those people are, on average, only out of work for 3 months according to government statistics. 4) For a functioning capitalist economy to work properly it is said that unemployment should not fall much below 5%. This is called NAIRU - "Non Accelerating Inflation Rate of Unemployment." It indicates a failing economy. Basically, if everyone was working, companies would offer increasingly lower wages as there would be no reason to look elsewhere for better qualified people. I assume you don't want to take lower wages so all the people you deem should be working were actually in work?
If that is the case, how is it that the numbers claiming benefits since the lockdown has gone up by 2/3 to an unsustainable level. What was one figure?£69bn which is more than the budget for the Police and separately schools. There's 3.5m on PIP and the last three months to April 24 there were 1/4m applications for PIP alone! Totally unsustainable!!!
@@TrevorGoodone-x6t immigration, that’s why there’s more people claiming UC than before the pandemic. Duh.
@peanutboxes - that is not the case. I'm talking people claiming ill health benefits. People with a National Insurance Number too. Illegal immigrants don't have a National Insurance Number so they are not included. The increase is since the lockdown and are today's figures. It is not immigration if you look at the statistics. More like people, not all, don't want a job after experiencing months off work in nice weather. Totally unsustainable too. Taxpayers funding it and you pay enough tax already!
@RussellJamesStevens Agree, there are definitely workshy claiming since the lockdown, absolutely must be. It's costing £69bn for those claiming ill health benefits as the numbers of working age claiming has risen by 2/3 since the pandemic!
Isn't that only for people who claimed ESA before April that can claim LCWRA?
they changed this and wanted to bring pip and lcwra into one assesment, the labour government is still debating on it and they have looked at reviews etc, but they wont confirm they are cancelling or going ahead with it, chances are this will go ahead if it saves money...
Hi rich im so confused I can not work out what’s going on ! I get pip and esa is it stopping are they taking it away I’m just confused what is going on I’m pulling my hair out not that I have much
It is just revealing what plans the last conservative government had, its not a plan by Labour as they have criticised this. The article details the impact that such a change would have.
What you said 😂 thank you matey ! 😀
@@DynamicDuoUK haha no problem :)
@@BanditSlotsbut labour hasn’t stopped it coming in or the green paper so far .
@@animallover1297 Yes that’s true but given their public condemnation of the Conservatives Plans it would be really silly for them to go ahead with this.
I wouldn’t bet against it but I think in October they will announce something along a different path.
The PIP assessment is based on how your condition affects your daily living whereas the WCA is focused on your ability to work and undertake work tasks. The whole descriptors would need an overhaul. I don’t see how it would work.
Predovic Streets
Not sure if its still happening but DLA is supposed to be stopping for most and they say a letter will be sent out soon asking you to claim for PIP but Its not worth it. I think most that lose there DLA will have no chance of claiming PIP. I'm on the lowest rate for DLA its not much and I'm not bothering to claim for PIP when my DLA ends. I'll just have to struggle and cut back on things.
he also has some serious fratures to his lower back and his hips he walks with a walking stick that the hospital has given him the new renewal form for pip has the medical information as well as some evidence from the hospital they have had the form since june when i phoned them they said that his pip would continue but i would recieve a letter soon we live in hope thanks guys for all you do for all the sick and disabled i hope you are both well yours george leicestershire
Hi, I had a PIP review this year. I don't know if my timeline of events might help you etc. I sent my review form back (online) about 26 March, due to our PIP post getting lost in early/mid February (we hadn't got the original form at all, never did, we just received a reminder out of the blue for something we never had!). So we called them and they extended it for us. Anyway...PIP form went in 26 March, then we didn't get a text until 2 May to say they would book me a review assessment. The phone assessment appointment then didn't happen until 1st July, so 2 months after they said they would book an assessment. Then we finally got a letter through the post to confirm continuation of me receiving PIP, received about mid July. Suffice to say, they are taking a bit of time as they're busy. All the while this review process was happening, my PIP was not stopped, I continued to receive it (my award was actually originally to run until October this year but they reviewed me in plenty of time beforehand). But they also said to me that they wouldn't tell us on the phone whether it had been awarded, so don't bother to phone them after the assessment! It's a waiting game. So don't panic, but DO chase them up again if you haven't heard anything, write down the date and time you called them, and then ask them on the phone call, what date should you call them back if you still haven't heard - ie, how long before you should call them to say you've heard nothing. Because you worry things might get lost in the post - tell them something like that. That way, if they have given you a date you should hear by, they can't penalise you for not contacting them in time, IF your letter happened to get lost in the post, because they would have told you, oh don't contact us until BLAH BLAH date. I hope I make sense! All the best.
Confused,so people on pip and esa will have benefits stopped?(thanks for video ,good info
So basically the plans would if they move forward... Mean that anyone on universal credits claiming lcwra would have to also receive pip to claim this. If they did not get a pip award they will not get lcwra.
Esa isn't mentioned as the DWP originally wanted everyone off ESA and onto UC instead by 2024 but unfortunately that hasn't happened.
@@DynamicDuoUK so basically there fxxking the disabled and poorly off,causing unnecessary alarm and distress for many people,I’ve been on esa for a number of years,never had to go in job centre,(thankfully as I don’t like clowns) but I’ve got a feeling the will try and stich us all up one way or another..unless we go and buy a dingy 😉extremely good work to you both,and stop letting the haters get to you,look at it like their a tad jealous,thanks again my friends x
But some people on contribution based ESA can't claim UC because they have too much savings
@@jane8741 my heads getting dizzy,had no sleep as was in pain all night,and I can’t think which one I’m on but I’ve been on it for a good few years as I will never get better,I just wish each and everyone of you the best of luck,people don’t choose to come on these benefits,your health or an accident does that for you,and those who put people down for being on benefits need to remember,they are only a step away from it happening to them..peace to you all
@@manclad0161They will have us all living in tents the way things are going.
I still don’t get how I have permanent disability for rest of my life no use of my arm and nerve damage with a list of problems I have to detir and I get 420 pip a month but someone who’s flat footed and has undiagnosed anexity gets 700+ 😂
So I’m on universal credit and pip can I claim the extra! I lost it 3 years ago when I was moved off esa!
You should be able to claim the lcwra benefit regardless at the moment if you're physically sick due to a disability or illness and haven't worked or not able to work, then you can apply for this by filling out a UC50 form.
Be cautious though as most work coaches and DWP staff in general are starting to not wanting people filling in this form and are using every excuse possible.
Try getting medical proof of your conditions to back you up before hand and also any fit notes you can get from a doctor would be helpful.
Good luck x
@@DynamicDuoUK thank you! It’s been difficult to get any answers from dwp! I was on enhance esa then got moved to basic esa when I moved! So I missed out on the extra being applied I dud keep asking but the advisor kept being changed so I was constantly starting from scratch then got told it was too late!
Basic universal credit !
Any news on pip vouchers instead of cash ?
Vouchers haven't been mentioned or had any traction for months, DWP knows they won't work and have recommended against it.
There is no confirmation of vouchers and no proof that's this going to happen.
If they decided to go down this route it would take around 2 to 3 years to implement.
@@DynamicDuoUK thank you
DWP are getting ready to cancel ATOS contract and get a new company in to do assesments for new claims for PIP.
Started yesterday it's maximus and capita business services now....
It's the same people just a different name.
They have a habit of changing the name every couple of years when they are being investigated for malpractice.
@@DynamicDuoUK capita for everything in west midlands now or should i say crapita
@scott Atos? An absolute disgrace. I call the DWP and said "why do you deal with an outfit like that"...
I thought changes like this have togo through parliament what would happen if the government loose the vote against this rich hope you and cara are ok
think thats where the massive majority comes in handy
If you receive pip with a onward award until at least 2029 on migration to uc would this mean another assessment or are you just migrated iam currently on esa as well
@@thomasreavey1475 i think you will have to go through the same process again
The dwp should stand dull workers in power 😂
haha
Great information once again, I know that pip is not means tested you would think it was separate from esa, I had a esa assessment years ago so why the changes 🍆🍆🍆🍆
Does anyone know how this affects ppl who only claim LCWRA ? Will they no longer be able to claim without PIP ? If so all those claimants being assessed for LCWRA will they automatically be entitled to PIP whereas before they weren’t unless they had the dreaded PIP assessment. Plus can a claimant be refused one benefit but be awarded the other ? Does anyone know or is it not decided yet because it’s not making sense to me .
None of this is making sense to me either what is LCWRA?
@@chloelawes8175 that’s the UC version of ESA
@@chloelawes8175limited capacity for work-related activity. Part of The UC(Universal Credit) So it helps you when you can’t work as normal.

Tis a pity many of your commentators are petrified of punctuation.
Alas I cannot control how people speak nor write comments.
@@DynamicDuoUK I understand, but some of them make my blood boil they are quite racist.
We can't control all comments unfortunately, if you do see anything you don't like or deem it acceptable or racist the best thing to do is click the little 3 dots I think it is ? And then you can report as hatred,racism etc I think there's a few on there not sure.
That will remove the comment for you and if RUclips deems it as racist or unacceptable they will stop the person commenting.
Hope this helps 😊
Whilst it would be nice to only face one set of hurdles and hoops to jump through, if it goes wrong then thats the big issue. Unfortunately it seems to depend so much on who assesses you, how they interpret you (honestly they are not trained well, ive been accessed as relaxed because i smiled and laughed, erm no i was shitting myself and nervous laugh and smile because im trying to be a decent human even when im never too sure what is correct). Ive had GPs who have never seen me and only treated me over the phone for a urine infection state that i have no problem attending a face to face medical at a centre, even though i was too housebound to attend the doctors surgery and have been agoraphobic for decades, only theres 15 GP in my practice so most have never seen me or might of spoken to me once on the phone for a matter unrelated to my mental health. This is where it can go terribly wrong and its concerning. Peoples lives, homes and mental health are in serious danger when they make errors. Thats without questioning if the actual pip tests are a reliable indicator for ablity to work.
Yeah tell me about it. Us who mask get sh*t on by assessors. I have learning and development difficulties and they tricked me, it's cruel. It's like the abuse I've delt with all my life, I was honestly traumatised by pip. I won in the end at tribunal, it was hard to go through but got support
@ZoeW335 I'm glad you won in the end, you shouldn't of been put in a position of having to fight like that. They don't see, I fact even doctors etc don't see behind the wall as I call it. The attempts made through habit of trying to survive life and putting on a unconscious act. It's like if you didn't shower or clean up I all the days weeks or months prior to them stepping in the door, but out of human nature knowing social interaction is about to happen we clean ourselves, put on fresh clothes, Do a degree of urgent clean up indoors and put on a smile, the smile and nervous talking or laughing isn't remotely an indicator of panic before the time, the pills popped to try and get through or the mental punishment once it's over on "why did I talk so much, did they think I was rude, did I come across weird, what if they couldn't wait for it to be over" etc etc....they see none of it.
DNS are a business, there to make money, click bait! I had a PIP petition on the parliament petition website, they refused to publish it!
what is LCWRA ?
Limited Capabiliity for Work Related Activity. Basically it's the group that people who cannot work at all because of their sickness or disability go in to. It used to be called the Support Group. LCW is now what was the WRAG (Work Related Activity Group).
£1200 in benefit per month absolutely disgusting no wonder they don’t want to get a job the scrounging state
FU2
Some are scroungers BUT not all! It's cheats and scroungers that have ruined the system! Since lockdown there are many that don't want to work! The government should suss this lot out!
@Richard He has a point! There must be scroungers for the numbers of working age on benefits to rise 2/3 since lockdown! You see them around town, they don't want a job and in the end it is tax payers paying for it! Definitely needs something done if you are honest!
£380 month stupid ' now crawl back under a rock & carry on playing with your dad pervert 🤣
@Dave Not all are scroungers but I am sure there are a few. Some don't want a job after the lockdowns, they like the time off. Think it is more UC than PIP though.
LCWRA element is currently £416.19 per month 👌
Thank You John for the correction :)
