'You cannot scare people into good health, and you cannot force people into inaccessible jobs.'

Maria Caulfield MP this doesn't even reach disappointing - you are letting down thousands of disabled children and their families for no reason - you've had two parliamentary reports already there is no need for more time in Parliament!! How do you sleep at night?

PIP has nothing to do with employment.

PIP is for moderate to severe disability and it is v difficult to qualify for.

It is not something one can blag. I research this.

Sunak's idea people can go off PIP with treatment is wild and dangerous. It is disability denial,no less.

Here we go again, Medics weren't happy as to who should give women the Pregnancy Prevention Program for Valproate & because of that babies continued to be born disabled, now children are suffering whooping cough. HCP need to get their act together as children are suffering 😪😪

3 months ago called to Compensate Valproate sufferers, yet Department of Health and Social Care Maria Caulfield MP says it will take more time for legislation before redress can be concluded. Infact - Independant Fetal Anti-Convulsant Trust are so let down at the decision & families feel kicked into the long grass once again.

This Govt haven't a clue, no understanding or empathy and think everything fits into one box.. if the want to 'help' disabled back to work they have to accept and understand their difficulties. 🙄🙄

'Instead of helping GPs to do our job—providing expert medical care to our registered patients—it seems that the funding arrangements have been deliberately engineered to ensure the destruction of traditional general practice.'

Exactly that.!!👇 The same must be said in the case of Valproate, licensed in 1973 & with the Department of Health and Social Care knowing full well of the damage it would cause to our children, they still allowed prescribing to women. stated compensation was recommended yet we still wait.

3 months on from the on compensation for those harmed by the Scandal, families now threatened by the loss of & benefits while they care for their disabled children caused by a cover up by the UK govt since 1973. Their Interim/Main payment is crucial!

Proposals to curb Personal Independence Payments (PIP) and change how people are assessed as unfit for work are dangerous.

Disabled people and people with mental health conditions must stop being seen as the problem by this government.

I tried to explain just how the language used by Prime Minister Sunak about people who are sick or disabled has consequences in increasing prejudice & escalating hate crime against disabled people. My warnings were ignored by the Conservative minister.
