On our way to Westminster to speak to MPs about hunger and hardship in the UK. Thanks to David Mundell MP for meeting us later today to hear about what needs to change in Peeblesshire. Trussell Joseph Rowntree Foundation #essentialsguarantee

We’re in Westminster today with Aberlour Children's Charity & One Parent Families Scotland to launch our joint research revealing the devastating impact cuts to disability support could have for disabled households. 👇

Food banks from across Scotland will be in Westminster today to call for an #EssentialsGuarantee within Universal Credit. 💚 Food banks are being pushed to the brink. Our social security system should as a minimum ensure everyone can afford the essentials. We need MPs to act!

📣 Scottish MPs! Food banks from across Scotland will be in Westminster Hall from 12.30-1.30pm today. Please pop along to meet them & hear why we need to fix social security so it gives all of us an #EssentialsGuarantee

📢 9.3 million people are facing hunger and hardship in the UK! We support @trusselluk and Joseph Rowntree Foundation & 100s of people at UK Parliament today calling on MPs to Guarantee our Essentials. Here's why it matters: bit.ly/3FEZKnK #EssentialsGuarantee

New vlog👇We’re in Parliament. Over 700 people talking to their MPs about the hardship they’re seeing in their communities & asking them to support reforming Universal Credit & stop massive cuts to disability support. Trussell Joseph Rowntree Foundation

📣 NEW: Millions of people are turning to food banks because Universal Credit is falling short. And now the UK government is voting on brutal cuts to disability support. We’re in Parliament today to urge MPs to ACT on hunger and hardship.

Fantastic to get so much interest in the #GuaranteeOurEssentials campaign today - we've talked to nearly all the Glasgow MPs plus 2 from neighbouring constituencies, and asked them to work to tie #UniversalCredit to the actual cost of living #LobbyDay Trussell Trussell Scotland

Great to talk to so many local(ish) MPs about the Trussell #GuaranteeOurEssentials campaign today. Volunteers Mary, Sonya and I gave the open letter about it to John Grady MP and Martin Rhodes ...

🎙️ On the pod this week - @mrnishkumar heads down to Westminster alongside @trusselluk and Joseph Rowntree Foundation to call for a guarantee on all of life's essentials. Listen now to interviews with @wendychambld, Sian Berry and Brian Leishman. Images @hurdjessphoto

Change happens when we step up and demand it. Join the march for all of us. Edinburgh - 25 Oct. #WeDemandBetter  scotland-demands-better.com

In the coming days, we'll continue to hear the government say that the welfare state is at brink of collapse and that cuts are the only answer. The evidence tells a different story.

Disability cuts will force hundreds of thousands into severe hardship. Use our simple tool to urge your MP to vote against these cuts 👇 action.trussell.org.uk/your-mp-must-v…

‼️ Please ask your MP to back this reasoned amendment 👇

Great to see some fantastic Scottish Labour MP’s sign the reasoned amendment to the welfare bill 👏 Thank you Patricia Ferguson Tracy Gilbert MP Elaine Stewart MP Richard Baker MP Dr Scott Arthur MP (Edinburgh South West) 🌍🌈🌹 Lillian Jones MP Brian Leishman Euan Stainbank MP

We’re so grateful to all the MPs bravely taking a stand. Disabled people, carers & food banks are terrified about the potentially devastating consequences if these massive cuts to disability support go ahead. They need as many MPs as possible to stand with them on this.

🚨 Over 100 MPs have backed an amendment to the Universal Credit and PIP Bill. It focuses on the lack of information available to MPs before they vote. And the lack of consultation with disabled people. It calls for the second reading to be declined. news.sky.com/story/labour-m…

Strong words from ⁦⁦⁦Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan⁩ Great to see him standing with the thousands of disabled & carers Londoners set to be devastated if the cuts go ahead. And some eye opening figures on the potential impact on London. theguardian.com/society/2025/j…

A huge thanks to all Labour MPs who have signed the reasoned amendment to stop the devastating cuts to disability support. 🙏 If your MP isn’t on the list, please email them now: action.trussell.org.uk/your-mp-must-v…

‼️ If disability cuts go ahead, nearly HALF A MILLION people will be pushed into severe hardship and at risk of needing a food bank. But this isn't a done deal. If enough MPs vote against it, we can stop this bill becoming law. Email your MP now ⬇️ action.trussell.org.uk/your-mp-must-v…
