Oh I see, thank you for clarifying that you can have extra money without needed to declare it if you're only in receipt of PIP, I didn't know that. My support worker fills in my forms for me, I get so distressed having to deal with it all, it's a nightmare. I didn't realise that you can get PIP without ESA and I assumed she had ESA as well. I've had my support worker and my housing association benefits advisor appeal about the mobility components on my behalf which included more than a decades worth of medical notes and recent letters from all of my medical team including from my specialist and psychiatrist specifically explaining how having a car is essential for me to leave a house but it was still denied so I have no other options.

As you said I have no idea how she's qualified for PIP, even I was only awarded 1 or 2 points for things I struggle immensely with. How the hell has Wilkes been scored highly enough in all the other categories to get PIP including the mobility part??! It's baffling.

You can get PIP even if you work fill time. The money from PIP is meant to help you purchase the things/ care you need to allow you to live independently. I'm so sorry that the system is letting you down. It must be hard to see Ms Wilkes splashing her cash around, she's a horrible person.

I don't think she has got PIP (yet). She apparently got the blue badge based on her PTSD and not mobility, but did mention how she might apply for PIP when the lump sum runs out as she thinks the pension won't be enough to live off of. (It would if she stopped spending like some sort of millionaire)

I always thought to qualify for a blue badge you have to be in receipt of PIP. I must be wrong, I'm no expert.

I've been holding my tongue commenting on this thread but I can't anymore.

I'm disabled, need to claim ESA and PIP and have to live in sheltered housing to receive the daily support I need to survive. I can't do many basic things and it kills me every day that I can't just go live my life and progress like everyone else does. It's affected my relationships, friendships, my mental health (two suicide attempts) and I need to put in 10x more effort than an able-bodied person everyday just to get through the day and then I have the difficulties through the night to look forward to. Joy.

I've attached my PIP assessment to show you what you need to qualify for each part and I can tell you now.. they are TOUGH and I'm still wondering why I didn't score higher on many of those parts when I require the highest levels of home help and sheltered living care and I'm not even eligible for a blue badge or a motability car despite my physical disabilities having a significant impact on my mental health which has resulted in me only being able to leave the house a handful of times in the past few years (diagnosed agoraphobia and general anxiety disorder caused by the suffering I've experienced with my long term physical disabilities and under psychiatric care.) A blue badge and motability car could have such a huge improvement on my life and provide me with a much needed aide to live my life but I was denied.

I have absolutely no idea how Wilkes has scored high enough to receive PIP and a blue badge. She walks her dogs every single day. She can take Ellie out to shops, to school, she can do supermarket shops, she can go on a long road trip to France, go in swimming pools and sunbathe, just go out by herself in general without fear, she can feed herself food and bathe, and go on a plane to Florida unaided and walks for miles and miles and miles around theme parks. Plus she can look after pets, do washing up, clean the house, leave the house without a support person, receives no house help or personal care help etc.. And she can vlog! Don't underestimate that! If her assessor knew she talks to a camera everyday and uploads it online for the whole world to see they would not be scoring her highly on the anxiety/PTSD front because that's one of the most anxiety-inducing things you can do.

Remember the PIP and ESA assessors under the Tories are looking not to give you money, they will grasp onto anything they can to not give you the points you need to qualify so they can cut the benefits bill and will dig into every aspect of your life. Tens of thousands of people with conditions like multiple sclerosis, severe epilepsy, autism, amputated limbs, and cancer have been denied. They are known to be especially strict on people who say they have conditions like fibromyalgia, anxiety disorders, PTSD, M.E, back pain, arthritis and will usually not award you any points or so little points that it's not enough to qualify.

Wilkes must have laid her conditions (if she actually has any) on thick. Really, really thick. And it disgusts me because it's people like her who makes people feed into the belief that most people with disabilities are liars and scroungers and lazy arses. It's people like her that have made these assessments as strict and devastating as they are and made the assessors believe those with genuine disabilities are trying to pull a fast one and fiddle the system, but instead of managing to weed out the fakers they're penalising the genuine ones instead. Thousands of diabled people have killed themselves or died after being declared 'fit for work', including those who can't communicate, or can't walk, or have terminal illnesses..google it, educate yourselves, it's heartbreaking.


I also wonder if she's declared all this money she's received to DWP. If you come into any other money, even if it's just an extra £100 month you need to report it so they can reassess your claim. If she hasn't declared it you can bet they're going to come down hard on her if she's reported as most people who cheat the benefits system these days go to jail.

Don't even get me started on her saying the 'S' word. If she was truly disabled she wouldn't be going anywhere near those derogatory terms. She infuriates me.

Absolutely disgusting. All that is wrong with the UK’s benefit/disability system.

Makes me want to punch Wilkes even more. bleeping fraudster.
 
I've just been watching the vlog where they get to go to the park after hours. It struck me that they do nothing but eat. I really hope they balance it out with healthier food at other meals, perhaps fruit for lunch or a salad. I also hope they don't eat all the food in front of them as those portions look huge. It won't he helping her health problems to eat all that junk. I know their on holiday so maybe I'm just being a grumpy killjoy but all I ever see them do is eat.

I’ve been to Florida twice and sadly that’s exactly what it’s like. Everything you eat is unhealthy! We went to a buffet style restaurant one night and I was happy to see some broccoli. Piled it onto my plate but when I took a bite it was raw. They don’t even boil it, just blanch it so it’s still hard. I was so disappointed! I craved vegetables but there’s not many to be seen.

Thats what their diet is like even when they're not on holiday. They both turned their noses up at the salad on the plane and binned them.
 
You can get a blue badge and not claim pip. You just have to apply to your local council. If you get high rate mobility part of pip you are automatically able to have blue badge. If not you have to explain why you need it and possible have a face to face interview. And they ask for letter from doctors and consultants etc.
 
First time posting, usually a lurker but had to vent. I have had such crippling second hand embarrassment watching these vlogs, its been really rough. Can't deal with her full on flirting with the disney characters, it's all a bit much for me tbh and starting to wonder if Wilkes is a secret furry...
Also on the flight she started banging on about the engine sounding dodgy and wether Ellie would prefer to crash on land or at sea, I'm a nervous flyer and hearing someone have this kind of conversation would freak me right out! Filming back into economy and loudly exclaiming how glad she is not to be sat back there, was a bit rude!
 
I haven't watched any of them yet. I said here before her French escapade was more than enough tbh which I enjoyed in a rather 'eyes keeping being drawn back to it through fascinated horror' way. The sheer bleakness of it all. The way after cobweb cottage she only seemed to film Ellie swimming for days in that awful motel pool under the flight path. Without money she was just a bit pathetic, on holiday swanning around with, albeit rapidly dwindling, funds I can bet she is awful. Are they still on holiday?

Oh Lordy! Then it's back to the bloody boring dog walking. I always leave adoring messages on Her vlogs, ( not that I really like Her vlogs, just for the hell of it) yet she bores Me to bleeping tears, hahaha.

According to Baby Bear Bunch shopping spree blog Wilkes will be modeling, on future walks with name brand athletic wear. Never mind the athletics, PEOPLE will see how posh Leasa really is wearing posh names across her new wardrobe of tee shirts! But... Wilkes is not bragging as the video has a disclaimer saying so. Ellie's blog yet mom is in the background gurning, posing, and trying to be the center of attention.

The meet and greet with Minnie and friends and Leasa throwing back at least one Long Islsnd Ice Tea. So much so she told Goofy "look at those huge... you thought I was talking about your feet..."

It is no wonder Baby Bear tries to distance herself when walking with Mom. The mouth on that woman must be embarrassing. So is having a mom who makes her daughters rear the focus of so many vlogs.

I think rather than looking Posh, Wilkes will look Chavvy! Certainly not classy, which is what i would expect to buy with the amount of money She has spent. I was cringing watching Her meeting The Disney Characters, especially Goofy! I reckon too many cocktails might have been consumed,,,,,

She appeared to have more affection for Minnie than her own kid. Such a lot of grumpy faces between those two 🤣
