🚨 We’re shocked and disappointed. The UK government has pushed through HUGE cuts to Universal Credit for disabled people applying in the future. These cuts will be devastating. They risk pushing even more disabled people to food banks.

"While filming a cookery show I entered the dressing room of one of the contestants and, due to my autism, my trousers accidentally fell down."

Keir Starmer has kicked three more Labour MPs out of the Parliamentary Labour Party • Brian Leishman • Chris Hinchliff • Neil Duncan Jordan They will sit as independents until further notice Their crime was to try to protect the sick and disabled. Three heroes of our class

A Labour Party that removes the whip from MPs for voting against poverty has no right to call itself a Labour Party.

I’m very glad that Bridget O'Shea mentioned Simon Wessely in her Substack piece on #ME Tragic that she died so young. Another #ME death. I sincerely hope it’s acknowledged.

Sorry to say that's it. The universal credit bill has been passed. Not a great advert for the #Lords this evening, despite a small number of good speeches by those opposed. Full report by DNS on Thursday. Not feeling thrilled about democracy this evening. #UniversalCreditBill

It is one year today since this genius gave us the most hilarious demonstration of Karma ever.

Dr Jay Watts Somehow it's gone from "15 *organisations* plus wider voices" to *10 people*. Which conditions will Sir Stephen select and on the basis of which of his personal opinions? Whatever this is, co-production it isn't.

You want to know why disability is worsening? New figures show three million people are stuck on NHS England waiting lists, receiving no care since their GP referral. Across every speciality, for nearly every symptom, disability worsens with poor and delayed care. #TakingThePIP

Thinking of everyone enduring #SevereME or #verysevereME today, yesterday, tomorrow, 10yrs ago, or 10 from now. Those we have lost, all that are barely clinging on, & all who are existing in the best way they can in the confines. You matter. It’s hell. You’re not alone💙
