Absolutely have to call-out Isobel Oakeshott. To say benefit claimants are 'parasites', sit on the sofa, drive their 'free motability' is completely outrageous. At @scope we call out ableism. Call out discrimination. And to not let language like this go unchecked. Shame.

“I have been so mixed up, you explained everything so clearly. I get really anxious if I don't know what's going on”. Worried about your sight? Call us on 02920 398900 for a friendly chat.
