Victoria Derbyshire Concessions are awful, just insane. Anyone who has an accident, loses eyesight or a leg, or their bowels, or loses their mind, cannot claim in the future? It's blatantly obvious this Gov not only don't understand issue, they seem to have a visceral hatred to those less fortunate

.TfL, I am arriving late to my Friday night theatre plans and having to pay £35 for a taxi because the lifts have been turned off at Kilburn due to lack of staff. Who can I email the receipt to at TfL to get this reimbursed, as a violation of the Equality Act?

‘Two people with identical conditions could receive support, according to the Institute for Fiscal Studies, that differs by up to £6,560 a year – purely due to timing. This, we’re told, is compassion.’ A two tier benefit system. Immoral. #ScrapTheBill theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

“You want disabled people to work? Fine, give every disabled person a job that they can work in, a job that is accessible to them." Anna Landre ♿️ calls out the hypocrisy at the heart of the government’s push to get disabled people back to work while workplaces remain inflexible,

Erin Ekins (she/her) (@queerlyautistic) 's Twitter Profile Photo

The idea that more DWP work coaches is the answer to disability unemployment rates is rooted in the belief that disabled people are the problem, when the actual problem is that jobs aren't accessible and employers are unwilling to employ and make adjustments for disabled people.

“As a disabled woman, I’ve been trying to access a cervical cancer screening for over two years. I wish this government would work on that rather than working on streamlining my access to suicide.”

As researchers, scientists, & innovators in the disability space, we at Global Disability Innovation Hub 💜 have written an open letter on the UK government's proposed cuts to the disability system. The reforms lack an evidence base & don't address the true access barriers to work. cdn.disabilityinnovation.com/uploads/images…

Anna Landre ♿️ Cervical screening and Mammograms are inaccessible in my experience as a disabled woman. This puts our lives at risk and should be addressed. We need equal access to health care .Our lives Matter !

The UK Government - Cutting disabled people's welfare whilst streamlining suicide. This is where we are. #TakingThePIP

BBC Newsnight You’re letting ministers get away with trotting out their lines that don’t match the reality of what’s already happening, they’re dismantling #AccessToWork & many disabled people who’ve been working no longer have the support they need to do so: channel4.com/news/access-to… 1/2

Well…this whole thing could have been avoided if Government consulted properly in the first place. Months of uncertainty and proposals that will make people poorer, only for government to pull and say they will consult. A huge cut to UC health remains so still work to do

If we closed the disability employment gap even slightly, it would bring £50 billion back to the treasury. But this will never happen when everything you need to get into work is inaccessible, non-existent or broken. #TakingThePip #EndAbleism

Amendments: ✅ The Bill drops plans to overhaul PIP—reforms have been removed. ✅ New legal guarantees mean ESA & LCWRA payments must rise with inflation every year until 2030. ❌ Other major cuts are paused until impact assessments & consultations happen. tinyurl.com/3536cp68

I voted against the Disability Cuts Bill last night. And I will continue to vote against this Bill while it tries to balance the books on the backs of disabled people.

Disability Rights UK (@disrightsuk) 's Twitter Profile Photo

The Government claims they are cutting benefits to 'encourage' Disabled people into work. Yet with a disability pay gap of 17%, a underfunded Access to Work programme and reasonable adjustments overwhelmingly ignored, it is employers, not us, who need the incentive. Us on LBC

Ever wondered what PIP is or why some disabled people get it? It’s not “free money.” It’s not “extra help.” It’s a lifeline in an inaccessible world. Disabled people face on average £1,095 in avoidable extra costs per month. #TakingThePIP #DisabilityBenefits

Are you a disabled person who faces barriers to evacuating your home in case of fire? Researchers at Global Disability Innovation Hub 💜 are looking for disabled Londoners to take part in workshops to design a digital information system to facilitate accessible evacuations.
