Just the UK government casually changing the FUCKING TERMS OF WHAT A DISABILITY IS

Fuck this fucking government and their inability to understand disability. Labour are going to proudly kill thousands of people with diseases such as Long Covid and M.E.

As a Brit, I ask
What the actual fuck? Isn't GN supposed to be a forerunner for leadership of the Dems, and he is cosying up to Steve Fucking Bannon?!

"Tackling" benefits; not in the Labour manifesto, but going ahead with ยฃ6 BILLION in cuts.

Raising money for the NHS by taxing NonDoms; in the manifesto, but now not happening after lobbying.

Once again, the poor are propping up the wealthy, but with Labour instead of the Tories.

"We want to help disabled people back to work by reducing their ability to have government help to do so"

I genuinely loved Sir Stephen Timms's original appointment, but fuck me, I've done a 180 after this.

Also, don't see much difference between the last government and this on disability.

Surprising to the medics, not to the patients

This.

The lack of understanding makes medical professionals simply pass the buck, which then ends up with a lunatic prescribing fresh air, yoga and positive thinking.

The Cochrane cluster fuck continues...

Seems like they never had any intention of updating anything for ME/CFS patients. Big thanks to Jonathon Edwards (not the triple jumper. I assume) for his letter exposing them further to the BMJ. Shame they haven't published it, so read it here

In case you were wondering what's happening in the United States of Dumpster Fire...

States are suing the government so they can *checks notes* legally discriminate against disabled people.

I honestly don't know. I think it had an effect, but my biggest negative changes have come from overexertion due to stupidity on my behalf. I'm still trying to figure out what's happened when, and how

199-fucking-2. And STILL #pwME and #pwLongCovid are being told we are depressed.

Medical world playing the long game with us and letting us die a horrible slow death

Diagnosed with ME in 2019, suspect I've had it since 2009, possibly longer. Throw in chronic Lyme Disease as well and I'm an absolute delight

We are robbed of any emotion. It is possibly the hardest thing to deal with, being FORCED to deal with no feelings about anything, potentially forever

It would seem the UK governments approach to benefits is "let's take it away", regardless of Red or Blue.

They don't want to talk about Brexit, so why the fuck are they going to talk about an ongoing pandemic?

Fran is an outstanding human being and member of the #ME and #LongCovid community. This is a snippet of her life from well, to mild ME (a horrible term for something debilitating as ME) to severe ME with Long Covid

To anyone wondering why more people are claiming benefits in the UK...

Remember the global pandemic? Well, it's still happening and has had consequences that most of you are not wanting to see.

Long Covid is real. People with Long Covid need your support. Wear a mask.
