Anxiety levels are high today due to the arrival of a letter asking me to book an appointment for an examination by our friends from work and pensions. I think I will lose my benefit coz I'm doing permitted work which will mean I will be in a pile of financial trouble. It's just typical of my luck, just waiting for thr depression to kick in now.
I have a cousin in what sounds a similar situation to you Mad Hatter, she has just had her benefits reduced, for no apparent reason.
Yes this is to do with the govt's latest money-saving campaign, just happens to be people on incapacity & DLA at the moment, in a couple of months we will be back to the single parents, then we will probably have a session with the elderley, students will probably be in the line of fire after that, and of course there are always those on housing benefits to fire at when other sources of savings have been exhausted.
Let's all move to Scotland, from what I saw on Tonight, last night, people are treated like people there.
But then again, there are all those bombs & bullets to pay for....
Hang in there Mad Hatter, as Dollit said, appeal - and give them hell!
