    So someone comes on here saying they need help because they are pregnant and have been sanctioned with regards to jsa. Someone then turns round and says Oh i know why don't you get an abortion..? !!!!!!....

    You are deliberately twisting what I said.

    I agree with the person who said to get a sick note from the doctor and claim esa. If it gets her out of a spot then do it is my advice.

    And what would be her grounds for claiming ESA? What exactly is she to lie about to get the Dr to do her a line?

    As for the abortion debate...it's been discussed and done with *yawn*

    you can't claim ESA simply for being pregnant (unless there were complications)!!

    How many times does this have to be said?

    It's people who claim when they are not entitled that make it hard for the genuinely ill to claim what they are entitled to

    I have a further suggestion for the OP, contact your MP, he may be able to help. My MP has been very helpful to both myself and my son in dealings with the DWP.

    You can but try Googling his webpage, it will probably give a contact email address for him.

    Cheers, HG


    Aw, c'mon. Things don't go exactly to plan, so contact an MP. Why not take it direct to the Court of Human Rights? Or complain to Watchdog?

    The young lady involved has made a couple of mistakes. There is a perfectly valid method of complaining and appealing. Why not consider these first (as outlined in previous posts).

    Viola, of course he is. Please please don't get into a 'debate' with him. It's not worth it and there are many people who were getting what you were driving at.

    This is a man advocating benefit fraud - hardly going to be able to hold a mature debate on a subject is he?
