Benefit tribunals have no right to tell people that they will go to prison. So the conversation is being misrepresented in some way.

Means testing already applies for Universal Credit, so I don’t see why PIP or Attendance Allowance, or Carer’s Allowance should be exempt. I think savings of £16 000 is probably quite reasonable for the same principle to apply.
