DWP Lies Exposed: How I Forced Cambridge Jobcentre to Action

The Smoking Gun: How a Discrimination Claim Forced the DWP to Obey Its Own Rules

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and its local Jobcentre staff use lies and obstruction to deny claimants their rights. This isn't an opinion; it's a fact backed by evidence. This post contains the story from my own Universal Credit journal, showing the systemic failure at Cambridge Jobcentre Plus.



The Standoff: A Claim Held Hostage

For months, my Universal Credit claim was blocked. The official reason? They couldn't verify my identity. The real reason? They refused to follow their own rules.

As detailed in the video above, they ignored my consent given in my journal. They refused help from the council, who had already verified me. They insisted on processes that were impossible for me to complete due to my disabilities, despite my repeated requests for a reasonable adjustment.

This went on for months. It was a deliberate strategy of delay.

The Turning Point: Direct Action

The situation only changed when I was forced to take direct legal action. After exhausting all other options, I launched a county court discrimination claim against the individual staff members involved.

Suddenly, the impossible became possible. The roadblock that had held up my claim for months was cleared within days. This proves that the problem was never about "policy" or "procedure"; it was about a refusal to act until they were legally compelled to do so.

Why This Is Not Just My Story

This experience of fighting a confusing and unaccountable system is not unique to me. A major report by the Child Poverty Action Group, "You Reap What You Code," proves that these are nationwide, systemic problems baked into the design of Universal Credit. [cite_start]The report details how the digital system creates barriers to justice for claimants across the UK[cite: 1253].

We are fighting back together. Every like, comment, and share on this content shows the DWP that we are watching and we will not be silent.

25 Oct 2025 Ryan v SSWP or Ryan v Cambridge City Council.

I have a dilemma I have only so many spoons. Do I make another High Court Claim for CCC or SSWP or do I just report Carla B to the police? You have my permission to use AI to read this post. I have decided to put a criminal case together for Carla B, the Customer Service Team Leader in the Cambridge Job Centre. I have never done criminal law before. But I do know if two white police officers from Parkside come to your home, to hand deliver a letter, and read it to you (perhaps because you are dyslexic) so that the can personally tell you  that they will not investigate the racist comments made that you  recorded. This is because they asked them and they sad they did not say that. But importantly the police officers have their cameras on, without telling you for their protection (without telling you) which is very criminal. So you smile and show them your partner watching on the IPAD, and later ask for the Video via GDPR. That sort of crime is obvious because is it is very...

A Day in the Journal: April 5th - The Broken System at Day One

A Day in the Journal: April 5th - The Broken System at Day One My Universal Credit claim began on April 5th, 2025. It began with a broken door. The very first, and most critical, step—verifying my identity—was an impossible task designed by a system that doesn't talk to itself. For nearly two hours, I was stuck in a loop, trying to use the GOV.UK Verify system as instructed by the Universal Credit portal. The system repeatedly failed, but I kept trying because the alternative it offered was a telephone call—a method of communication that is extremely difficult for me due to my disabilities. After completing every other section of the application, from housing to health, the system finally logged a crucial, but false, confirmation. The Ghost in the Machine At 11:16 PM on the night my claim was submitted, my Universal Credit journal was updated with a single, misleading line: Journal Entry: 5 Apr 2025 at 11:16pm "Confirm your identity completed" I...
