The partial U-turn on winter fuel will be welcome news for pensioners. But the government still seems intent on pressing ahead with disability benefit cuts which will hit over-50s hardest. Ask your MP to speak out against the plans: z2k.eaction.org.uk/green-paper-wr…

The Work and Pensions Committee has written to the government urging them to pause disability cuts and to meaningfully consult with Disabled people on their plans. This is a great step towards halting plans that would push Disabled people into poverty. buff.ly/U03fiZm

Pathways to Work is not about work it is just cuts, as this shows. Cutting Access to Work increases disabled people’s unemployment. It’s that simple.

We are concerned at the prospect of even more support for Disabled children being cut. Read this informative article from Special Needs Jungle that explains more: specialneedsjungle.com/what-governmen… Sign the petition! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/7110…

Morning everyone, I'm part of the organising team for a new campaign launched by over 100 celebs writing to starmer to demand he scraps the cuts. Today we're asking everyone to share and use the hashtag #TakingThePIP takingthepip.co.uk @takingthepip1

🧵TW: PIP & Mental Health My new FOI further exposes the 4+ rule’s cruel impact on mental health. 1 in 3 MH claimants will be cut off, including those with the most severe disability. It shows a system built to erase cumulative + fluctuating need. #TakingThePip #WelfareNotWarfare

We’re looking for people to create videos to share at #TakingThePip on how these proposed disability cuts would affect you. Can be short and talking to camera. We want to try and make the stories more personal we’re sharing. Can anyone help by making a video? TakingThePIP

Government: "Big cuts to disability benefits are necessary to fund a small increase in support to find a job" Also government: Slashing Access to Work scheme that keeps us in work. Putting more people into poverty doesn't create jobs for people too sick to work. #TakingThePIP

Shockingly the DWP and ministers appear to have done no impact assessment of their cuts causing mass homelessness due to disabled people losing exemption from the benefit cap.

Abandon DWP Pathways to Work Green Paper & create National Disability Strategy. The DWP proposes devastating cuts to disability benefits. The Government must drop these proposals and instead begin co-production with disabled people. Sign & Share petition.parliament.uk/petitions/7239…
