I don't know if any of you have come across this blog.
I found it today and have just spent an hour reading different posts.
It is very interesting and covers the benefits reform bill and problems with ESA and DLA claims.
Sue Marsh has had severe Crohns for many years and now has OP amongst her other health problems.
She seems to be getting heard and has a lot of followers, some of them politicians.

    Some of you might already be aware of this, but Sue Marsh and a group of other people have been campaigning very strongly for all disabled people, mainly regarding DLA/PIP, they compiled the 'Spartacus Report' which was sent to the lords to help in the fight against the WRB. If anyone is interested in joining and helping in any way they can, there is a website and forum http://wearespartacus.org.uk/. They are still fighting our corner even though the WRB has been passed, a lot of us only help in small ways like re tweeting and posting things on FB, but it is great to be involved. I hope you don't mind me posting this.
