Essential reading (whole thread) - you’d rather be working than on PIP! If you think otherwise, it is because you have never had to have it or help someone apply for it!

So that's me and anyone who thinks everyone on PIP or with disabilities gets loads and it's all so easy is wrong. You can suddenly need it out of nowhere also it could be taken away because somebody is grumpy that day. And my friends that causes anxiety like you would not believe 13/n

Politicians - especially of the right - like to say how they would curtail benefits to balance the books. This is what it's like to be on the receiving end of that rhetoric. Worth reading to the very end
Thought I'd try a little thread about getting ill and all those glorious benefits, worth £20k, we all get.
Now I've never done this or said much about what's up with me but why not, sure it'll make no difference to some but it might others. 1/n

The reason I have to do this privately is that the need is urgent, and appointments in the state Health Service are stretching into 2027/2028.

I require an urgent colonoscopy, which has to be done privately. That costs money, which I don't have.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a cancer vaccine that has shown STUNNING results, PREVENTING up to 88% of MULTIPLE aggressive cancers by harnessing dual-pathway nanoparticles that train the immune system to recognize and destroy tumor cells. In some cases, it COMPLETELY prevented metastasis.

More leaders like him please, and fewer like Cuomo, Schumer and the rest of the oligarch-pleasing, hope-destroying, election-losing, right-centrist political class.
