Leftists ignoring the pandemic for so long has left them with zero context to interpret the material realities facing us now. Disability numbers & long term sickness numbers have been rising & govts are reacting. Meanwhile there is no opposition, no one has a clue what’s going on

i'm glad she's talking about this bc holy fucking shit

.Dr Shani Dhanda "Nearly half of everyone that already lives in poverty is a disabled person or a carer of a disabled person. If we're going to cut support to people that need it most its going to push more people into extreme poverty, with the backdrop of the assisted dying bill"🎯

Please, all of goodwill repeat this wherever you can. To rewrite the history of the labour movement as a celebration of the capacity to labour (with implied eugenicist tilt) is beyond horror. And they know what they are doing. Refuse refuse refuse.

This is the benefits system: “More than 1,000 sick and disabled benefit claimants died while waiting to receive vital payments last year, The Independent can reveal, laying bare the crisis in the welfare system”. Don’t believed the propaganda: tinyurl.com/5n7n6k4k

Labour are making a huge fuss of how many people are claiming pip (3.6 million). But there are 16.1 million disabled people in the UK. That means 12.5 million disabled people AREN'T getting PIP or any support.

The government has announced the most devastating cuts to disability benefits on record. These plans should shame the government to its core. Here's our initial response to the new Welfare Green Paper 🧵👇

please share if you can see this

There's been lots of talk recently about getting disabled/long-term sick people back into the workforce, but very little about the 60,000 disabled people waiting for support to do just that Here's what's going on with the Access to Work scheme 🧵👇 thetimes.com/uk/society/art…

“I can’t sleep, I’m so scared.” My report in tomorrow’s Guardian on the disability benefit cuts “domino effect”: losing PIP will see unpaid carers lose their benefits too - pulling away two main strands of a family’s income at once. theguardian.com/society/2025/m…

🧵1/3 We are rolling out paid opportunities for racialised sex workers to be part of our advocacy events, campaigns, and creative outputs - Open to current/ former sex workers who are racialised as non-white - Applications close: 13th MAY

Nothing to see here. Just an article saying palliative care services may be cut to ‘balance books’ a week after the TIA Bill Impact Assessment laid out how much money assisted dying will save the NHS.

When people say you should hear both sides of the argument, well these are both sides:

So lemme get this straight, Labour will: - cut benefits - stop carer visas - slash palliative care - allow those who feel like burdens to seek assisted suicide - decimate access to work Tell me again how Labour aren't worse than the Tories for disabled people?

The dwp snuck out a report into why people claim pip that disproves all their reasons for cutting disability benefits. They don’t want you to know about it so share this far and wide (Me for Canary) thecanary.co/uk/analysis/20…

The US is truly a dystopia.
