At least at tribunal you get a proper time-served doctor, a disability specialist and an unbiased serving judge.
But not for long, as moves are afoot again to move everything online with DWP-paid tribunal panels.

As a result they want to scrap personal tribunals (where appellants generally do better) and remove the disability specialist.
