I am not sure anyone knows yet, not even the government. Detail on the announcements is lacking, they talk of changes over the next five years for which there is no detail at all yet. My personal guess would be no, because you are of pension age and most of the changes seem targeted at those of working age, but you will have to wait and see to be sure.

Hard to be sure because the details don't exist for protecting existing claimants etc..... I would say if you have scored 4 or more points in a daily living activity then unlikely you'll be affected by proposed changes... however... remember governments will propose new changes including the one after this so long term nobody can say.

10 years. who knows what will have happened.

Personally, no point worrying now. You have another 7 years to go. What will be will be.
