ok, just loaded up the form and the space for submission is literally a textbox lol. this is different from how they normally do it, where there's several questions. there's also a bonus textbox for "anything else you want to add?" lmao.

rachel c dailey points out on twitter that this follows a week of "1000 new PIP claimants per day!!!!!"* headlines in the compliant uk press

*it's a bit more complicated than that!!!: https://www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/2026/03/18/dwp-pip-claimants/

Yes 1,000 people claim DWP PIP a day - but it should be much higher

Less than a quarter of disabled people in the UK claim PIP - but we all know why the media are helping the DWP monster claimants
