A disabled man has chosen to stop taking life-saving medication because it is too hard to get health and social care This is the system we're introducing assisted suicide into. Are we ashamed yet? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Been on hold to DWP for half an hour already and they close in 15 minutes. Do we think I'll get through or just get hung up on on 15 mins?

A report by the DWP found that one of the main reasons for more people applying for PIP was because jobcentre staff had started suggesting to claimants they may be entitled to it. Not because of "fraud"

Thanks to the wicked sickfluencers the success rate of initial PIP claims has surged from 52% in 2015 to 44% today. They must be stopped.

What’s hilarious about this is, like the m&s employee, this is me literally just doing my job and not worrying about my appearance

1. So only men can clean the men's loos and only women can clean the women's loos? Because that means hiring double the number of staff to clean the loos. 2. Also just fuck off and let people piss. 3. Legalising discrimination doesn't make it less discriminatory

I genuinely didn’t know the extent of the damage he’d done. I knew of a few but I suspect it’s going to be a lot.. I feel awful for recommending him (back in ‘21), he also duped me when he claimed success for one of my cases but didn’t actually *do* the work. I was so niaive!

Something that many don’t realise about the UK job market… Over 1/3 of the job vacancies are listed for job that do not exist or that has already been filled. These are known as “ghost jobs”, and our credibly common for recruiters and companies to embellish growth statistics

Statutory surveillance doesn’t just monitor actions — it occupies the psyche. People start policing their own thoughts, shrinking their lives to fit someone else’s gaze. That’s not protecting the taxpayer. It’s crushing lives — and driving up costs through the anguish it creates.

Literally wasting money to fuel hatred across the country. They already know that there is practically no benefit fraud in terms of disability benefits. WTAF.

Really disappointing to see more ‘disability activists’ using disability simulation. An ‘able bodied’ person sitting in a wheelchair for a few hours is not going to understand accessibility or promote change/inclusion. How have we moved so far back? /1
