I’m scared of the changes by the government was created by Glitter Pink
Hi,

I’m absolutely petrified with the changes that the government I’m making. I’m so scared that they are going to take away my benefits and forcing me to look for work. I’m so unwell and unable to cope with this proposal. It’s so cruel. I can’t sleep and I can’t stop crying. I just don’t know what to do. The DWP is heartless as it is. I can’t believe this is happening.

Hi Glitter Pink

I know you're scared, but the picture is still unclear. There will have to be legislation passed before any changes come into place, and as yet, you don't know how they are going to affect you. So, as scared as you are, there is nothing that you can do, and nothing is going to change at the moment, and no one is going to be forcing you to work at the current time.

If you want to do something positive, contact your MP, explaining how you may be affected financially and what it’s doing to your health now.

Ditto if you are in a trade union, either active or retired. The more they hear from their disabled members the more they may be inclined to get involved.

i am contacting my MP and protesting vigorously.

How long will it take them to implement the changes required, as i feel they could just change the descriptor 4 points needed for one thing, without the need for new legislation and if that is the case, not looking good for very many.

Hi Jobsworth,

Please see PIP/UC changes tab at the top of the page in pink. This should help answer some of your question.
