#PIP @vickyfoxcroft It needs stressing that PIP is claimed by disabled people who are working too. That it’s about care and mobility needs. Many disabled workers in receipt of pip have said that remove their pip they can’t continue to work @MarshadeCordova @johnmcdonnellMP
Remember the Tories introduced Voter ID not because of voter fraud but to try and stop working class communities going out to vote. So don't let the Tories get away with their voter suppression strategy. Remember to take your photo ID when you go to vote today.

Some of the rhetoric govt uses for pushing disability benefit reforms is that the world of work has changed and disabled people now have more opportunities to work from home. Professor Kim Hoque says this argument is false, using DWP's 'Find a Job' website to explain why.
As someone who receives PIP and has a job as a journalist, I would very much like to know why the Labour Party is going round the media perpetuating the myth PIP is an out of work benefit. Does Reeves know it’s not? Or does she not actually care?

The Labour Party really need to be briefed that pip isn’t an out of work benefit and it just patronises disabled people further to tell us you’re going to help us into work when for a lot pip is the reason we can work the hours we need

When does electioneering become a threat to public health? Depression and anxiety make an easy target for Stride because he is playing off existing prejudices that sufferers face. It is damaging. My piece for @guardianopinion on #PiP and mental health. tinyurl.com/754s93ht
#PIP claimants ask government: ‘Why should we have to fight to live?’ @DWPgovuk disabilitynewsservice.com/pip-claimants-…
The idea “every aspect of the support for disabled people” must “help people get into work” is deeply grim from Labour. Benefits and the NHS don’t exist to turn disabled people into economic productively units. They are to help us live well. inews.co.uk/news/politics/…
Planning to #VoteConservative? Don't forget how much they gave us. - Soaring poverty - Broken NHS - Rampant homelessness - Unaffordable bills & mortgages - Sewage-filled rivers - #BrexitDisaster -#ToryCorruption - Deadly PPE - Trashed rep - Crippled defence - Ruined economy ...
@TottenhamConse1 If Hall wins, heaven forbid, then we will have increasing poverty, children going hungry etc The ONLY two things Tories know how to do are 1) further enrich the richest 2) increase poverty levels to the point people die. If YOU #VoteConservative YOU are voting to hurt people
If YOU #VoteConservative be honest about what YOU are voting for. YOU are voting for children to go hungry, for disabled people to be culled, for poverty to rise, for your institutions, infrastructure and NHS to be decimated. Vote, but be honest with yourself
Some good news today which I'm sure will be welcomed by everyone...😡 "Goldman Sachs removes bankers' bonus limit" #VoteConservative and more news of this kind will fill you with joy in future #LocalElections2024 bbc.co.uk/news/business-…
"You are a person that I am satisfied can cope and function reasonably well with ‘day to day’ living and this would, I believe, still be the case if you were to become homeless or to remain homeless.” #VoteConservative bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
I'm sorry but I simply could not bring myself to hate my fellow human beings so much that I would stoop so low as to #VoteConservative It speaks volumes about who you are that you can
The government’s advisers on accessible transport have been fiercely criticised for a half-hearted and “meaningless” response to the government’s planned rail reforms. #DPTAC #RailReform #AccessibleTransport buff.ly/3xUZzRm
We would love to hear from carers who have received a recent demand from DWP - within the last three months - to repay carers' allowance. Please do email us - contact details at GoodLawProject.org - or reply here. We might well be able to help.

Some of the rhetoric govt uses for pushing disability benefit reforms is that the world of work has changed and disabled people now have more opportunities to work from home. Professor Kim Hoque says this argument is false, using DWP's 'Find a Job' website to explain why.
As someone who receives PIP and has a job as a journalist, I would very much like to know why the Labour Party is going round the media perpetuating the myth PIP is an out of work benefit. Does Reeves know it’s not? Or does she not actually care?

If YOU #VoteConservative be honest about what YOU are voting for. YOU are voting for children to go hungry, for disabled people to be culled, for poverty to rise, for your institutions, infrastructure and NHS to be decimated. Vote, but be honest with yourself
