🚨A retired man says Government errors ruined his dream retirement and left him living in his car. Graham Longstaff, 67, planned to move to Portugal but claims mistakes by the Department for Work and Pensions — including late payments, wrongful deductions, and letters saying he’d died — cost him his home and visa. He and his partner were forced back to the UK and spent months sleeping in their car before finally securing a flat. #fblifestyle

Can anyone recommend an affordable on line or London based supplier for a small number of protest boards please? Not for me but it is for someone who needs help for an incredibly important cause…

🆔The Government has spent over £650,000 of taxpayers' money on digital ID adverts during a cost-of-living crisis, figures obtained by us reveal "Discovering they have spent nearly three-quarters of a million pounds on ads to promote the deeply unpopular digital ID agenda will rightly annoy many." - Jack Coulson, Head of Advocacy Read⤵️ dailymail.com/news/article-1…

I'm doing a story on cuts to the Universal Credit disability payments - I'm looking to speak to anyone who started claiming means-tested disability benefit (LCWRA, either in ESA or UC) for the first time when they were in their 50s or 60s My DMs are open, grateful for any RTs
