Personal independent payments: It is likely to be destroyed or justified? | benefits

As expected (Starmer “submits” huge concessions “on the draft law of rebel care, June 26), an attempt to save the Social Welfare Law was made. Representatives and persons with disabilities will be welcomed by the assertion that people currently receive personal independence payments (PIP) or a healthy credit component will be protected from changes. But the episode is harmful, and it has caused thousands of persons with disabilities to an unnecessary anxiety, and it may be seen as pivotal in the state of Kiir Starmer.

There is a very useful thing about the presence of two categories of beneficiaries – current protected beneficiaries, and those who make future claims. At the same time, it is clear that the benefits system needs reform, and in particular, it needs to support people at work rather than follow a punitive and brutal approach to save costs.

How Starmer ended in this position great, if it is not unusual for the government that has such a majority and the possibility of making a radical and fair change to be frequently placed in the feet. The rotation seems to be weak and chaotic, and its progress as a reaction to the active listening is unlikely to persuade anyone. Starmer claims not to be ideological, and there is the issue; Policy is not formed through a coherent strategic vision and aspirations that depend on principle for a better life, opportunities and real equality, but necessarily economic and caution.

It is a defective model, with certainty of intensifying departments between ministries, workers’ members, taxpayers, beneficiaries of benefits and wider voters. There is educational and great thinking the government needs; The optics were wrong, but the chaos of social welfare reform is one of the symptoms of deeper political distress.

I am a social worker and I support points. She has faced a number of young people trapped in a course of dependency for care, unemployment and chaotic lifestyles. They share the belief that the state must finance every aspect of life, and the lack of understanding that the benefits do not come from the “government”, but it is redistributed from population taxes.

PIP is often claimed on the basis of anxiety or depression, but the idea of ​​work to support self -support, or search for training or education to make work more realistic, absent from their thinking. Answer? Perhaps a combination of education, early interventions and anti -culture changes, including limiting the availability of PIP. In the long run, the status quo will not help with the youth I work with.

Unless it is clarified in government data and coverage of discounts to the advantages of deficit is the relationship of personal independence payments to work. PIP is paid to help with the additional costs arising from disability. It is paid to people at work and outside the work. It is important to enable people to stay at work and pay the price of technical and personal support, health needs, travel and other costs. It also allows people who cannot work full -time work. What will happen to these workers when they can no longer have additional costs? It is clear that the government does not understand the role of PIP in enabling work.

As we approach the parliamentary vote on the new welfare bill, avoid thinking of many PIP recipients who received benefit when he was known as the livelihood of disability. I think, for many, that the scars are still standing from the government that changes to the system.

What he revealed is that the disability allowance was not directed to those who need this because of their disability. Instead, receiving the new interest depends on the individual’s ability to fill a 40 -page model. After that, he relied on the presence of physical and mental flexibility to challenge the result and transfer it to a court. This was a long period of time. For many, who reached this point, the court reflected the DWP registration and found that they had its old level of their entitlement. Just a shame that stress makes many medical conditions much worse for the individual.

Several years ago, I believed that DWP wanted to help those with serious disabilities. These days, I have a lot of belief in them as much as they seem to be in the disabled people (DWP messages now seem to be written with a sub -text from “You are a fraud and we will meet you on you”).
