Reynolds says changes to PIP are necessary because too many young people are not in work, education or training PIP isn't related to employment. It enables many disabled people to work. Stopping disabled people getting PIP wont help them into work. It'll have the opposite effect

BREAKING: Israel is bombing civilian areas in Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley for the second night in a row. This is terrorism. Plain and simple.

Austerity has decimated our communities & pushed millions of people into poverty. It would be a catastrophic mistake to repeat this failed economic experiment. The top 1% in the UK own more than 70% of the population combined. Stop cutting our services and tax the rich instead.

Spain has introduced a wealth tax on the richest 0.5% of households. Introducing such a tax on the world's super-rich could raise £1.5 TRILLION globally to help tackle so many of the problems we face. This is an idea whose time has come! https://t.co/PQYNN4YggP

The Tax Justice Network said trillions could be raised with a ‘featherlight’ tax on the 0.5% of richest households, copying a current Spanish tax

The Household support fund is ending next month. All previous cost of living support payments have ended. Winter fuel payments are axed. Support for Disabled people, carers & other financially vulnerable people is now gone. Labour is already failing millions.

Well done Karen, you articulated everything beautifully. You are facing @NHSuk standard operating procedures with #VerySevereME: imminent death in hospital or at home. According to #MaeveInquest this is not a #HumanRights matter. It is. Inhuman and degrading treatment @GwynneMP

Labour is going back on its plans to radically reform the water regulator! 🤯 @EllieChowns told the @Guardian, Labour need to reverse Conservative cuts and give the @EnvAgency the funding it needs to protect our environment

💬 “The only way we could get by without really, really suffering is if we got divorced.” Due to benefits restrictions, this can be a common experience for disabled people in the UK. It shouldn't be this way 💔 https://t.co/MXJwGtUykk

RD&EH and its lawyers are no doubt breathing a sigh of relief after the coroner's findings at today's #MaeveInquest. But #pwME across the UK are frustrated that the coroner had nothing to say about systemic failings, and severely ill ME patients in hospital are still no safer.

What is happening in the UK is entirely the result of allowing the Daily Mail, GB News, Nigel Farage, Tommy Robinson, Andrew Tate, and all the others to spew their bile to hundeds of thousands every single day.

🚨IMPORTANT: Scam Alert! We have been notified by a local resident in Chelmsford that 5-6 people are claiming to be DR UK and collecting card payments/directing people to banks. These people are NOT related to DR UK - we do not do street collections!

So pleased to see this: every Labour MP will get a copy of @johnpringdns’s new book exposing the DWP’s harm to disabled people thanks to a crowdfunding campaign.
