PIP is meant to be for the extra costs associated with disability: in reality it’s the only non-means tested disability benefit (unless you count a subset of ESA for which you have to have paid x amount of NI contributions to get - difficult if you’re disabled very young) 🧵
all of this to say, that if you think PIP is over-awarded, then you are through the looking glass swanning about in a mirror world of ignorance where pigs fly and tories are compassionate this attack on disabled people who already have to fight for every concession is abhorrent
"Specialist teams linked to the benefits system will instead assess the sick and decide how best to keep them in work." What DWP Health Assessors whose work is so bad that most claimants win at appeal? Who trigger so many with questions such as 'why haven't you killed yourself?"
This is absolutely magnificent. The reworking of the music is *chef's kiss*

Before anyone asks, this is not early footage of me! Also, the ones in the garden were actually mounted on trees, and therefore could only be used for trunk calls. I SAID TRUNK CALLS hello is this on?

When you see that your lovely, brilliant, kind next door neighbours are getting an artificial lawn put in... *sigh* (but I can't be too judgemental as my parents have one, so I'm kind of torn...)
Happy 29th anniversary of #PhONEDay! (or, happy 29th anniversary of me repeating "no, the new code for Leeds is 0113, NOT 01132, the 2 is at the front of the local number making it 7 digits long, it's not part of the code, how many more sodding times so I need to explain it?")
While it would have been nice to have Tony Blackburn back in the slot (and of course he may well have been offered it and turned it down), this is still a decent replacement. I may actually start listening again...

And to the fine #forgotten80s faithful, it's been lovely to be among you once more and I hope we can do the same again next Sunday. Until then, love and big hugs to you all - look after yourselves, stay safe!
Thank you @MatthewJRudd for what's been a really very good #forgotten80s tonight.

@snathe love to you and your wife! it’s a nightmare system
@snathe i hope you can both keep going! most people win at tribunal and it was the easiest part for me when i had to do it the first time - talking to an independent doctor who actually listened instead of a DWP assessor was so much better. Hope you don’t have to go that far tho!
@snathe i thiiiink it was 2 months from the reconsideration refusal but honestly i’m not sure - i tend to try very hard to forget all dealings with the DWP once i can put them away for a few years again 🫣
Yes, I do feel depressed whenever I see your astonished, witless blinded-by-headlights gurn.
@snathe An infuriatingly tedious bully.
If you watch Sunak with the sound off, he looks like he’s doing a Netflix stand up special, with his ‘am I offending you? hope so’ shiteating grin.

More demonisation of economically vulnerable people by this govt. Like 'electoral fraud' (for which there is no evidence), 'benefit fraud' is minuscule when compared to the economic losses caused by corporate greed and tax loopholes. But they don’t want you to focus on that.

@BothersBar I won on my first go but I will have to play the music in the background next time and see if I’m just as successful, I suspect not, what a birthday present for you 🎂
There is no such thing as “a sick note culture.” There is a record high NHS waiting list, crippling housing costs, widespread food poverty, stagnant wages and inadequate benefit rates, a broken social care system, dire mental health services, and closed Sure Start centres.
Here is a different “economic” plan. Stop voting for people who have defunded the nhs, created a 2/3 year waiting list for anyone experiencing mental health problems during which their work lives fall apart and they have little hope of ever re-entering the work force.
This is brilliant I should reiterate, especially if like me you reckon 4 Square was secretly the best show of the turn-of-the-90s BBC Daytime cohort. The music!
