#THREAD Universal Credit will be fully rolled out after the next election & is on course to make thousands of working-age disabled people poorer. A single person with a long-term disability that prevents them from working is £2,800 a year worse off when they transfer to UC.

It’s unfair harsh & immoral to ask someone with long term adult social care needs to give up their modest income from benefits to pay for social care The Dilnot commission recognised this challenge & in 2011 recommended a zero cap for people who turn 18 with eligible care needs.

The consultation into a major overhaul of disability benefits closes tonight. We want to see the new government halt these proposals. And redesign the benefits system alongside disabled people. Here’s what we think to the consultation 🧵👇

The #CareAct 2014, S19(3) provides that local authorities have a power to provide care and support for those who have urgent care needs. What has been your experience in asking for this type of support?

Do you know all the different definitions of Disability? When's the best time to write to your MP to change the law? How to challenge Equality Impact Assesement, using Due regard & Gunning principles? How do the United Nations conventions protect you to live independently?

Starmer’s ‘no stone unturned’ on benefits claimants? Dangerous. Claimants are already *hounded for years* to prove they’re not faking it, even when clinicians scream ‘Enough!’. This isn’t about catching cheats—it’s reinforcing a system breaking people who are already struggling.

Disability Unit Sir Stephen Timms The UN has already said we are in violation of international law regarding poverty and the UK Gov should be increaseing the benifits budget & access to benifits! NOT the entire opposite of this which is what you're continuing to do! theguardian.com/society/2023/n…

A 3 year review is too long to wait for thousands of people and their families whose care and support needs aren't being properly met, particularly when much of the evidence on how to reform social care is already known. independent.co.uk/news/uk/care-e…

How can The Labour Party justify planning PIP cuts after accusing the Conservatives of failing us disabled people by the UN? Our disabled lives are not political pawns. #SavePIP #EndAbleism bbc.co.uk/news/disabilit…

Leading disabled people’s organisations (DPO) have written to work pensions secretary Liz Kendall to express “serious concerns” about the human rights implications of her “incredibly dangerous” plans to cut spending on disability benefits.

If the people we care for lose PIP then we would lose our carers allowance and be pushed into looking for work by the DWP. Who provides the care then as social care has been pretty much decimated?

Disabled people warned what would happen. Now even Labour MPs are rebelling against a £5bn benefits cut that will devastate our community. Our lives are not up for negotiation. We must fight back. theguardian.com/society/2025/a…
