That suggests that UC will be exactly the same (i.e. just as abitarily unfair) as ESA is right now, if your in the WRAG and seriously disabled (i.e. not capable of work - which was what the WRAG was intended for when it was created - but not quite lucky enough to be in the support group - and it is luck), then you're stuffed with only 3 choices;
1. appeal and hope you get into the support group;
2. try and comply until you're incapable of doing so and then get sanctioned, as you'll be unable to meet the conditions to lift the sanction it's time to exit
3. try and comply until you get sanctioned, give up, wait until you starve, get evicted, lose everything, and then do the decent thing and save everybody the inconvenience of acknowledging your existence by dying in something nice and biodegradable, maybe something made out of cardboard.
The last 3 times I've used the first route, if I don't manage it next time then I will no longer be in the benefits system, or any other. the system is not fit for purpose unless that purpose is to remove the disabled, by whatever means necessary, from Government figures.
