My book #UnderstandingMentalDistress is out now. It’s about the harmful impacts of neoliberal reform in #mentalhealth services. A huge thanks to the service users & workers who so generously shared their experiences with me policy.bristoluniversitypress.co.uk/understanding-… 👇

“Putting both workers and service users at its heart, in this volume @richmoth makes a compelling case that structural and ideological forces continue to limit the possibility of genuine #MentalHealth care … Highly recommended.” @HSpandler. policy.bristoluniversitypress.co.uk/understanding-…

Disability benefits cuts on the front page of every national paper. They all say Starmer has caved—which he has. But we’re nowhere near safety until this dangerous bill—unconsulted, with no impact analysis—that will impoverish 100,000s is binned. Still #TakingThePIP

The most effective thing you can right now to fight the disability cuts is: 1. Make an appointment to meet your MP face to face, ideally with a couple of friends and tell them how these cuts will harm you. 2. Attend this protest on the 1st April, 12 noon.

I’ve been campaigning against disability benefits cuts for 10 years. There are people on here who have been campaigning on this for 20 years. When does this end?
Dr Jay Watts@Shrink_at_Large

I stand in solidarity with Disabled People insisting on investigation into the accumulative effects of benefits cuts in Parliament this afternoon #WOWDebate (with poster as was requested!) Nothing is more important for the mental health of the nation in my opinion as a clinician.

Life costs more if you are disabled. Making it harder to qualify for PIP won’t make those costs go away, it will just push more disabled people into poverty, not jobs. Don’t punish disabled people. #TaxWealth
Frances Ryan@DrFrancesRyan

The right wing think tank, Policy Exchange, has released a big report today recommending young people on PIP “be required to look for work, to volunteer or be engaged in training.” Only one problem: PIP is not an out of work benefit. policyexchange.org.uk/publication/fo…
