People want a government that believes in justice and compassion. That’s why we need Scottish MPs to stand up for social security. “It’s supposed to be a safety net, but this feels like a noose.” (UC Health claimants at STAR) #WeDemandBetter.

It’s wrong for the UK Government to balance the books on the backs of sick and disabled people. We need Scottish MPs to stand up for justice and compassion now. #WeDemandBetter.

Shocked & appalled at this! The most vulnerable people have just survived (or not) a pandemic, Cost of Living Crisis & rise in energy bills and now this! On a day when 700 activists were ‘heard’ by MPs. The community are NOT numbers to be balanced on a spreadsheet.
‼️ BREAKING: Record cuts for disabled people and the biggest social security cuts since 2015. The new Universal Credit and PIP bill will push nearly HALF A MILLION more people into severe hardship and towards the doors of food banks.

We’re here today at Westminster to call for an #EssentialsGuarantee! ✊.
Food banks from across Scotland will be in Westminster today to call for an #EssentialsGuarantee within Universal Credit. 💚. Food banks are being pushed to the brink. Our social security system should as a minimum ensure everyone can afford the essentials. We need MPs to act!
