Why would they be scared of doing an impact assessment if they didn’t already know the answer to it?
This has all but confirmed the malicious intent behind the cabinet.

I got unlucky. Virus affected my heart and god knows what else. Went from a professional career to a societal accounting error. Despite my heart not working well, and this permeating everything I do, I still didn’t get 4 points in any one category thanks to the enormous amount of reaching and specious logic incorporated by my PIP assessor. If they want to push these changes through, can they at least open up some Futurama booths? It’s nicer than telling us to just starve.

So a u-turn on Christmas wine *ahem* I mean ‘winter fuel’ payments for pensioners and now looking like a u-turn on giving free money to people who feel anxious about working.
Great; so tax rises it will be on the rest of us then.

So will they resort to another NI increase or drop a selection of their spending plans?

I guess that means big tax rises are coming this Autumn because its either that or we borrow even more

Yay for an ever ballooning welfare state that were never allowed to touch!
Never cut pensions or touch the triple lock, never cut benefits, just keep taxing everyone more and more
This isn’t sustainable

Not sure how this government would ever win a war, cant even stand firm on their own pledges, laws or bills.
Can’t deal with any backlash from own staff, let alone hostile actions from abroad.
Wish someone would have a backbone.

I’m probably going to get flamed to hell over this but how do we square the circle? Welfare and pensions are unaffordable. We have no money. Taxing more is not necessarily the solution since company’s and high worth individuals can simply redomicile to lower tax countries

As bad as it sounds, PIP absolutely needs a rethink. So many people who need it are not eligible and so many people get it that absolutely should not get it.
