With so many myths perpetuated about disability benefits in the press, it might be a good idea to politely inform your local MP of the facts. This website makes it easy. writetothem.com

@implausibleblog Classic Helen. Welfare claimants always to blame.

@implausibleblog Helen malfunctions whenever she has do something other than bash welfare claimants.

Fun fact: The detention limit for suspected terrorists was raised to 14 days in 2004.
Among the MPs who voted against it on the grounds that it was an excessive unjustified assault on civil liberties was the entire Tory Party, and of course the Liberal Democrats.

🚨 NEW: The Green Party has drafted proposals to reduce the time police can detain terror suspects from 14 days to 4 [@genevieve_holl]

@RITB_ Considering Timms has ranted about disabled people being too "financially comfortable" and McFadden has ordered him to make radical "reforms" I'd say the chances of anybody even reading it are...remote.
English
Do you believe the Timm's PIP review will be influenced by consultation, or do you believe they've already decided what they will do and this is just a paper exercise?

@babyjan99813012 @DavidMcGregorBN IDS= Iain Duncan Smith, not Israeli Defence Force. (Assuming that is why you mentioned Palestine)
English
@leith1076 @DavidMcGregorBN Yeah Palestine has a great reputation for the disabled, you should visit. At least there’s never been a better time in history to work from home so you can fund yourself.

People ask what Labour has actually done.
Try telling a renter facing a no-fault eviction that ending Section 21 doesn’t matter.
Try telling a struggling family that breakfast clubs don’t matter.
Some of us know these things change lives because we’ve lived it.

Oh goodie- Helen Whately is on Question Time tonight. Looking forward to her blaming the Iran war on greedy disabled people hoarding all the Motability Warships for anxiety or similar such guff while Fiona Bruce shouts angrily at Caroline Lucas.

EXCL: 65% of people back the assisted dying bill, just 14% oppose it, as it’s held up in the Lords.
One dying man pleads with peers from his hospice bed to give him a choice.
ITV News is featuring stories from both sides of the debate as time runs out.

@PaulBrandITV again @itvnews offering a one-sided emotional view, with no mention of the substantial evidence that poorly drafted assisted‑dying laws can increase risks for older people, disabled people, those with learning disabilities, and others already vulnerable to coercion or neglect.
English
@JackWDart The media haven't convinced me of anything. His utter betrayal of disabled people has. He cut disability benefits by a record breaking 50% and wants to cut even more.

How are we supposed to tell the difference between aberrant posts that were authored by hackers and her usual bollocks?

🚨 LabourList would like to make all its followers aware that our wonderful editor Emma Burnell has unfortunately had her X account hacked today. 👉️ We're working hard to get Emma her account access back but wanted to let all of our followers know - so, if you see any strange activity coming from her account, then this is why!

Yep. Usually just a matter of administrative convenience. Assessors don't have the time or inclination to sit pondering which condition is the main issue, when it doesn't really influence anything anyway.

@leith1076 @RITB_ @GBPolitcs @Telegraph And more often than not, they simply list them in alphabetical order. So many claims appear as if the main condition is anxiety, acne, depression etc when they are not the actual primary conditions for the claimant
English
Not sure whether to laugh or cry over the fact that so many are apparently convinced that the majority of the 330 billion welfare budget is spent on people with depression and anxiety.

@matthew_elliott Of that £333 billion, £180bn is spent on pensions and £90bn is spent on Universal Credit for those in work. £10-£15bn is spent on unemployment.

@JohnSlinger Yeah. Fuck the disabled and vulnerable. Only dodgy polls count.

8/ I will keep speaking out about this as the process continues. The will of the people must be honoured.
English
1/ A small minority of unelected peers are filibustering the Assisted Dying Bill to death with over a thousand amendments. The elected Commons passed it. The public backs it. I will keep fighting until the will of the people is honoured.
