sorry to be cynical but at 40 cough plus and disabled myself i have seen it all both ways form both governments

labour at least made it much easier to get payments and less people and forms to deal with than it used to be once you qualify but they still keep changing forms so it can be really hard to put the right things down to qualify unless you know the system

but the conservatives used to do the same too they were the ones who decided your Dr obviously couldn't be trusted to say if you were disabled or not ! labour didnt change that either

if they want rid of red tape let it be the Drs and Consultants decide on who needs what rather than trainee civil servants with no medical knowledge totalling up points on a form that most people never understand

but hey maybe i am just daft
