    You're absolutely right; it's completely ridiculous.

    I don't understand what they hope to achieve.

    You mention history, but think how many times they've had to backtrack in the last year, the backlash from #WinterFuel and #WelfareReform... It's as though they've got a death wish... Or do they really think they can push through a Trump-style state if they're just sufficiently determined?

    That said, a country that voted for #Brexit, put the likes of Johnson in power...🤷🏻‍♀️

  17. And if you are wondering why the beancounters at the Treasury didn’t think they needed to consult key stakeholders(#disability organisations and charities) in their so called proposals before putting it out for public consumption…well that would be because students (of whom the Treasury is composed) think their subject is amoral, morality simply doesn’t come into their decision making.

  22. Well, if my health tracker is to be believed, I had 3 hours 27 minutes #sleep last night.

    Exactly what I needed to face another day of caring and dealing with #UniversalCreditMigration on behalf of 'my person'.

    Happy Thursday everyone. Blue sky and the sun is shining, which is lovely, though I heard a piece saying reservoirs are only half-full which sounds scary. 🤷🏻‍♀️

  27. Don't know how I'll sleep tonight. My average has been poor on a 'good' day. Today has not been a good day. As for the vulnerable person in my life... it's unlikely they'll sleep at all, going by past experience.

    Thank you #LiNO

    I was sceptical there'd be hope after your promises of #Change

    I was not wrong.

    Back to who knows how many hours on hold tomorrow...

  32. @skua

    Thank you. I feel supported by your comments.

    I've been beating myself up, annoyed that I allowed myself to be baited and trying to convince myself it was 'him not me'.

    As any long-term carer will no doubt agree, one is exhausted in the first place without additional burdens/hoops to jump through.

  36. AWFUL, HORRIBLE experience calling the Universal Credit line on behalf of a vulnerable family member...

    Robotic individual who answered was extremely unhelpful, kept talking over me and eventually put the 'phone down on me!

    And no, I wasn't abusive, didn't swear at him... but WHAT THE F*CK?

    I think the atmosphere/environment created by the political class, supported by the media is at play here...

    So more hours on hold tomorrow as I try to resolve the situation.
