@ForeverUtd93@socdemsam@pastalbedo unleashed covid? are you a conspiracy theorist? and the people who abuse the welfare are less than 1%. it's like failing the entire class because one person cheated. it's unfair
@SyrinxPriestX@SlipperyJimjim i hate boomers, and i wish they cared about the young disabled demographic. migrants aren't the ones taking what they don't need, you have this strange fantasy and obsession that they are the cause for everything wrong with the uk. look in the mirror instead
@ForeverUtd93@socdemsam@pastalbedo but it's not that generation receiving the majority of the money? the percentage of people on pip is 8.8% out of the overall welfare budget
i thought, well if this ban does happen, i'm 23 and 25 isn't so far away. i can stay with a family member because i won't be able to afford bills. but now, with the proposal of banning o25s, what is even the point of living? is this what they want? for young people to die?
@ForeverUtd93@socdemsam@pastalbedo why are you people so insistent on guaranteeing other people's suffering? does it make you feel better about yourself? people do have these conditions, they are real, and i don't know why that makes you so viscerally upset
🚨 NEW: The Government is considering expanding the ban on claiming PIP and the health element of Universal Credit to over 25s
It would apply the same “participation first” principle recommended for under 25s
I am almost entirely certain that, regardless of how much my life might change, I will die by suicide within the next five years. It’s a terrible feeling, because every effort seems pointless.
@ruesenkavalier ive lost all hope. im northen irish too, i just feel so much despair and dread. why do we have to suffer and be punished because of our disabilities, i dont understand it
The Government is going to ban under 25's from claiming anything but the basic £78.13 a week Universal Credit, regardless of their disabilities.
This will result in crippling poverty for hundreds of thousands of severely disabled young people.
what's the point of even living anymore?? i thought my future and adulthood would be something fun and meaningful after the shitshow that was my childhood, but now i just feel so defeated and hopeless. why is it so bad that i and others need support to live?
i'm 23 and have never worked or even finished school because of my disabilities. i don't even have my gcse's, how am I supposed to start doing all this on my own (my parents have passed) when i'm already struggling. i get £550 a month, and that will be cut to £100 and something
🚨 NEW: The Government is set to ban 16-24 year olds from claiming PIP and the health element of Universal Credit after a review into unemployment
They will instead receive a new "youth allowance" paid at the standard rate of Universal Credit
