I usually only visit this forum when in need of help so was not aware this thread was on the go.
As part of a group of online family carers,we have been campaigning over the last few months to protect the disability benefits. I will post the links but not sure if they are allowed so understand if mods need remove them.
Campaign to protect benefits
covers several months so its a lengthy read over many pages.Comments have been added along the way too. Feel free to add your own.
Also, as regards the problems with the new ESA
take a look at this , again a lengthy read
Last but not least there are a group of people fighting against some of the measures passed in the Welfare Reform bill. A few details

Hope this of use to some of you.
