If a federated community like this already exists, please point me to it. I’d rather not divide the effort any more than necessary.

I think it is clear to anyone in the UK. The disabled community is now under attack.

This community is an attempt to help pull people together and consider ideas for support and to enhance our voice.

I like many others in our community over the last 14 years. Have enough mental health issues. That I’d be grateful for other mod volunteers who will share the time managing the group. In the hope, we can keep the workload of off to few people.

    Well at least you’re not hysterical.

    Disabled people will now no longer be constantly reassessed for benefits, so that’s a good thing. The rest of the changes are for those who take the piss.

    Though we should really be going after the triple-lock as well to save even more off the welfare bill.

      Anyone who thinks their actually are pip claiments taking the piss. Either have absolutely no idea what pip has been like for the last 14 years.

      Or are delusional.

      Getting pip is often impossible without legal action for those who actually deserve it. Hence the huge number of rejected claims who have won in court compared to before this.

      Claims for mental health have been even harder.

      Unfortunately your claims are part of the evidence how much false crap the media has been spreading on the subject.
