PIP's assessment is undertaken by the for-profit firm Capita. What is their mandate? Does their contract stipulate to award claims as seldom as possible? Rumours abound of staff bonuses for claim rejections.

"Demeaning assessments" was overwhelming voted as the most frustrating aspect of the DWP in our earlier poll. Would people mind sharing their experiences of this? Thanks!

Instead of reductive slogans like "sick note culture", let's examine some structural factors. Working conditions, salaries & benefits have declined for years. MH services are overwhelmed as a few psychiatrists cover entire counties. You can't solve poverty with oppression.

🗣️ Almost two thirds of people in destitution live with a chronic health condition or disability. Cutting people’s eligibility for benefits won't help. The PM's speech was an irresponsible war of words on people who already aren’t getting enough support. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi….

"Renters are living UNDER DURESS!" Powerful words from Natasha - one of the many 100,000s of renters served with a cruel section 21 notice in the five years since the tories promised to abolish this exploitative practice. It's time to stop the evictions.

Thanks to all poll participants re the #Homelessness Vagrancy Act. Happy (but unsurprised) not a single person felt it was justified. If you think it is utterly unjust be sure to join @crisis_uk 's campaign to repeal it! campaigns.crisis.org.uk/page/142013/ac…
