To ‘free up hospital beds’ you need improved social care - not AI

@Jess4Lowestoft Spaces and forums for sexual assault and abuse survivors are now behind verification walls. When for OBVIOUS reasons, SA and DA victims do NOT want to have their accounts traced back to them. But congrats, you saved the children!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A disabled person is admitted to hospital.
Their carer stays — because staff can’t meet their needs.
But the system says:
Stop PIP. Stop Carer’s Allowance.
As if the care ends. As if the bills stop.
It’s not support.
It’s punishment — and it’s built on ignorance.

The £83.30 per week Carer’s Allowance isn’t a wage. It’s a token. It works out to £3.56 per hour for 35 hours — and many carers give 60–100 hours a week. That’s 24/7 responsibility with no sick pay, no annual leave, no pension, and no job security 🧵

.@kimleadbeater you are misleading the House before today’s vote. You know the Royal College of Psychiatry - the experts in capacity & coercion - has explicitly opposed your bill. It breaks my heart that you would use a sleight of hand to mislead MPs and the public in this way.

@ChrisWebbMP @Davedaly51Dave that’s an extremely disingenuous claim re: PIP where if you look into the numbers, published by the DWP, fraudulent PIP claims are statistically 0. .4%. but hey let’s make life harder for disabled people!!! benefitsandwork.co.uk/news/zero-perc…

@Davedaly51Dave That’s why I agree with the changes we’re making to enact the biggest fraud crackdown in a generation. gov.uk/government/new…

Welcome news from yesterday’s Spring Statement includes a further £2bn for social and affordable housing, a new skills programme to train up to 60,000 more skilled construction workers, and an investment in defence that I am hopeful will translate into new job opportunities at BAE.
But the government’s own impact assessment of the budget reveals that 250,000 more people, including 50,000 more children, will be plunged into poverty as a result of planned cuts to disability benefits.
Meanwhile, new government data shows child poverty has already reached a record high of 4.5m – 100,000 more than last year. In Blackpool South, where almost half of children live in poverty, around 1,000 more children were plunged into absolute poverty last year.
I made a commitment to Blackpool South that I would never vote for anything that makes local people poorer. These cuts will push even more people in Blackpool into hardship and deepen the struggles of families already on the brink.
I will be voting against these cuts and urging the government to pursue fairer alternatives.
