@Keir_Starmer Why do you talk about the taxpayer and disabled people as separate entities? I'm disabled and I pay more in tax each month than I receive in my disability benefits.
These plans will harm disabled people in work - those who lose their PIP payments will end up unemployed.
We inherited a fundamentally broken welfare system from the previous government.
It does not work for the people it is supposed to support, businesses who need workers or taxpayers who foot the bill.
This government will always protect the most severely disabled people to live with dignity. But we’re not prepared to stand back and do nothing while millions of people — especially young people — who have potential to work and live independent lives, instead become trapped out of work and abandoned by the system. It would be morally bankrupt to let their life chances waste away.
When I talk about opportunity for all, I mean it.
That’s why we are bringing forward the biggest changes to the welfare system in a generation and improving support for those who need it.
Ensuring those who can work do work is not only right, but it will also improve living standards and drive growth, the number one priority in our Plan for Change.
Has anyone actually got through to the Wembley phone line for accessible tickets? Doubting there will be any wheelchair spaces left by the time I finally get through💔
@jk_rowling Imane is literally a woman assigned female at birth - the exact group of women you claim you're trying to defend with the BS you spew daily.
Could any picture sum up our new men’s rights movement better? The smirk of a male who’s knows he’s protected by a misogynist sporting establishment enjoying the distress of a woman he’s just punched in the head, and whose life’s ambition he’s just shattered. #Paris2024
