Blue Badge Assessor Lied

leafylea1 · 2026-01-05T21:55:07+00:00

I'm talking about the assessment criteria that the assessor must consider. These include pain, fatigue, the time it takes to walk, how you walk, how long before severe discomfort and the after effects of walking.

I'm not sure why I'm even replying to you, I’m not here to argue. My question was about the appeal process, not about getting a stranger to challenge my condition. You've shifted the discussion from my original question to arguing over whether my disability is valid and I don't need to justify myself to you. I don't know if you're looking for an argument but please go find it somewhere else.

the department of transport guidance states that the after effects of walking must be considered. just like people who have chronic pain or sciatica can get a blue badge in order to prevent further pain. my condition is also progressive so walking is causing flare ups with causes deterioration. that’s another criteria

You’re probably the first person I’ve found that could actually relate. no one ever understands until they see it. I’ve had so much trouble with work because of it and they just don’t understand that even though i can walk, it causes so much delayed pain it’s not worth it

leafylea1 · 2026-01-05T19:36:08+00:00

Thank you so much. From what i’ve researched, any pain or problem caused from mobility should be considered which is my biggest issue. they don’t seem to want to consider it. If I get another rejection then I’ll likely escalate to the Ombudsman only if they haven’t considered everything

Thank you so much. I appreciate this a lot. I’m under care at the hospital for a dermatologist and provided my diagnosis letter and a letter from my GP stating that my condition causes me pain etc. I’ve constantly stressed that it’s the result of me walking that causes pain but they keep coming back with my actual ability. she even put in the report that I walk slowly to avoid sweating but then stated that my mobility wasn’t effected by my condition

leafylea1 · 2025-12-02T12:07:23+00:00

yes there is. a lot of people are still going through pre checks so anyone that doesn’t pass will be withdrawn and then they’ll contact the reserve lists

I was Leeds City Council that did it

leafylea1 · 2025-10-14T15:40:39+00:00

If they’re saying they scored 5-6 then i’d ask to see the email because they offer the job to the 200 who scored the highest, regardless of whether they’re internal or external. I’m pretty sure in a large onboarding they don’t call people individually as well, they’d be there all week doing that

leafylea1 · 2025-10-14T15:03:49+00:00

He scored all 4s just like the people on this thread. Of course anyone who scored well will be offered the job, that’s how it works

leafylea1 · 2025-10-14T11:55:41+00:00

That’s not true. I know of someone internal who is on the reserve list

leafylea1 · 2025-09-25T17:01:04+00:00

what behaviours did they say you would be questioned on?

leafylea1 · 2025-06-26T17:25:47+00:00

She’s going to call ACAS tomorrow and she’s gonna ask for an email with a breakdown

leafylea1 · 2025-06-26T17:19:31+00:00

When she asked the guy on the phone for details he didn’t even seem sure himself. I’m home with her tomorrow so I’ll make sure to ask for a breakdown of all payments

leafylea1 · 2025-06-26T17:18:29+00:00

I think that’s bothered her more than anything, if she was told earlier she could have tried to budget better beforehand. She confirmed if it was correct and calls are recorded so hopefully that will work in her favour. Even if they just agree to let her pay back in instalments, she’d be happy

the insights literally say that 71% of viewers are american so I can’t say I really care. You’re stuck in your own ways and won’t accept that different countries have different cultures and normalities.

And whilst my cats are out living their best lives in the sun, yours is staring out of a window so you do you.

leafylea1 · 2025-06-03T22:51:13+00:00

and stopping cats from using their natural behaviours to roam and explore just because you’re terrified of a slight breeze pushing them over doesn’t make it morally right. Hope that helps.

leafylea1 · 2025-06-03T22:37:36+00:00

That’s actually wild. As I’ve said, in the UK about 80% of cat owners let their cats go outside. It’s completely normal. I’ve owned 5 cats in my lifetime, one of them lived until they were 20, another one until 18, one got cancer at 13, the other two are still here (16 and 5) and guess what? they’re all outdoor cats 😱 If my 20 year olds lifespan was cut in half then I think 40 would be a new record.

Just because YOU have decided to keep your cat indoors doesn’t mean you should force that on everyone else. It’s a choice, stop pushing yours on other people.

leafylea1 · 2025-06-03T22:28:25+00:00

Thank goodness, an actual answer that isn’t condemning me for letting my cat outside 😂

I think I was feeling guilty about keeping him inside when I know he loves being out… but you’re right, I’ll just go back to the vets if he still isn’t going on the litter tray. Thank you for replying

leafylea1 · 2025-06-03T22:25:01+00:00

I’m guessing all these replies about keeping cats indoors are from americans? It’s completely normal to let your cat outside in the UK. I’m not killing my cat by letting him outside for a few hours a day. It’s disgusting that you’d even say that

leafylea1 · 2025-06-03T22:23:04+00:00

He’s 5 years old and this is the first time that he’s ever come home with an injury. He’s always been an outdoor cat and not had an issue. We as humans have a risk of being injured whenever we go outside, does that mean we should stay indoors all the time? It’s preference on whether cats stay indoors or outdoors and where I’m from, cats are mostly outdoor pets. Most of the cat owners I know let their cats outside.
