No, you don’t know your neighbour’s entire medical history to determine whether they “deserve” disability benefits or not. No, you can’t make a judgement based on the sporadic times you see them out of their house.

A reminder to disabled people that it's not your duty to "debate" right-wing windbags about your life and the lives of your community. Being asked on the radio is great, but you don't owe it to anyone, and you can always say no.

Want my disability benefits? My Motability car? You’ll need to have my disabilities, too. Trust me, you don’t want them. You also don’t want to lose nearly all your income and worry about survival constantly… but you do you if you want to get jealous about it.

Labour does not understand mental illness at all. Labour is belittling anyone with a mental Illness. Labour thinks employment will Instantly cure any mental illness. WRONG. We don’t want job coaches we want a decent mental health service. Work last, recovery FIRST.

Oh no, there are tampons in MEN’S toilets… how will the snowflakes cope… 1. Trans men exist, like it or not. 2. If the women’s run out, they can ask their friend/partner to go and get one for them from the men’s toilets 3. It literally doesn’t affect you at all. Get a life.

You see, the first thing I think of when seeing this hashtag is “if only we could shut down Trump. Where’s his off button?” #TrumpsShutdownDragsOn

"Quick let's put the focus on disabled people having cars so that we can push the benefits cuts through the back door and create rhetoric to go even further next year". This is what they're doing. It's sickening.

We can’t say this enough. If people think it’s so easy to fake a disability and fraudulently claim disability benefits then they should go ahead and prove it. Disability benefits are notoriously difficult to get and the process is frustrating, humiliating,exhausting and designed

The disability benefits system here in the UK is designed to be as harmful as possible to deny people support, and keep them fighting for the bare minimum instead of true equity. It's cruelty and oppression by design.

Disabled people don’t need to “inspire” anyone to deserve respect. We deserve accessibility, representation, and joy — every single day.

Can’t believe we are still having to describe the term “ambulatory wheelchair user” to people… And that most wheelchair users can, in fact, stand up, and even walk a bit. Sigh…

This Labour government did not have to go after disabled people. They could have chosen to just focus on the real issues, and ignore all the noise. They could have been different to the Tories and not pander to Reform. But instead, they chose to target the most vulnerable.

Disabled people have had ENOUGH! UK tabloids and politicians keep ramping up hostility toward disabled people - framing us as frauds, burdens, or scroungers. Headlines drive hate. #Disabled people pay the price.
