Try not to worry too much though. And keep your MP on speed dial just in case :rotfl:

Oh, a change for the worse I'm guessing
Finally Debt Free After 34 Years, But Still Need to Live Frugally
Debt in July 2017 = £58,766 😱 DEBT FREE 31 OCTOBER 2017 :T 🎉
EMERGENCY FUND 1 = £50/£5,000. EMERGENCY FUND 2 = £10/£5,000.
CHRISTMAS SAVINGS = £0/£500. SEF = £1,400/£12,000 PREMIUM BONDS ME = £350. PREMIUM BONDS DH = £300.
HOLIDAY MONEY = £0 TIME LEFT TO PAY OFF MORTGAGE = 5 YEARS 1 MONTHS0 -
What is this land coming to when genuine folk with real medical issues worry about where their next monies are coming from. Here's hoping the new rulings made this week help - they reckon lots of folk previously refused payment will now qualify. The powers that be should be ashamed....January spends - £587.580

I couldn't agree more milann. There is a real lack of compassion at the moment :mad:.Finally Debt Free After 34 Years, But Still Need to Live Frugally

They should but are not sadly.
The new rulings this week affect mainly people with mental health problems and learning difficulties.
YOu know it is just there at the back of your mind all the time.
Believe you me it happens to many people much more disabled than me.
If you have a life long condition by the time you get to my age there is very little medical intervention as everyone is agreed there is nothing to be done & the condition is never ever going to get any better. They dont accept medical evidence more than 2 years old.
So therefore you are 'at' it or however you want to put it.
You could not make it up but sadly it is true.
My mum is in her late 70's and worries about me:(:(:o:o

Good news on the payment, beanie.
As for your rant ... its not a rant, sadly, its just a description of the criminal truth - this is whats meant when the pundits go on about wealth concentrating in the top few percentage points, that people like you are deprived it must feel awful to have your mum worried about you, but as milann says, better out than in.
Plodding and posting - the only way to do it
