23/23 ENDS
We paid into the system throughout our working lives, trusting that support would be there if we fell ill. I didnโt choose this conditionโand I wouldnโt wish it on anyone. This demonisation of disability must stop.
22/23
Forgive my cynicism, but as they say, the proof is in the pudding. With the proposed tightening of the daily living criteria for PIP, many people like me may well fail the revised tests.
21/23
While the government claims that individuals with degenerative, lifelong conditions will be protected from repeated assessments, I remain skeptical. My understanding is that I will still be required to undergo one final reviewโdespite the incurable nature of my condition.
20/23
My salary expectations and the cost of necessary workplace accommodations make me an unappealing candidate. Furthermore, as someone who is immunosuppressed, working in a busy, air-conditioned environment would pose a serious risk to my health.
19/23
Employers are unlikely to hire chronically ill or disabled candidates when they have a larger, less complex talent pool to choose from.
As a former IT consultant, my skills are now outdated.
18/23
The recent announcement of job cuts following the closure of NHS England will flood the market with younger, healthier individuals seeking employment.
17/23
This has caused unnecessary stress and anxiety for those of us who depend on these benefits, adding further misery to our already challenging lives.
The governmentโs suggestion that disabled people should simply โseek workโ is tone-deaf.
16/23
The entire process around these proposed changes has been badly managedโfull of briefings, counter-briefings, conjecture, and rumour.
15/23
Punishing societyโs most vulnerable will not resolve the deep-rooted structural challenges we face as a nation. Instead, it will push more disabled and chronically ill people into poverty, stripping them of their dignity and independence.
14/23
Meanwhile, reports of DWP understaffing reveal devastating delays in processing claimsโleading to real harm and, tragically, even deaths.
The evidence of the past 14 years is clear: austerity does not work.
13/23
DWP statistics show that fraud within PIP is negligible, yet misleading media narratives, often driven by figures such as Darren Grimes and Reform UK, portray disabled people as burdens or fraudsters.
