Save the date. Protest the disability cuts.

The government is expected to introduce the disability cuts bill on the 18th of June, and vote on it as soon as July 1st.

They are not even waiting for the sham “consultation” to end on 30th of June.

Disabled People Against Cuts and allies are organising a mass Protest of Parliament on June 30^th and a national day of action on July 1st when the second reading of the bill will occur.

More details to follow but it is essential that as many people as possible attend these events.

Some funding is available for travel and other essential costs. Email mail@dpac.uk.net

Welfare Not Warfare

End Labour’s War on Disabled People

Tax the Rich, Not Crips.

The Government are lying about cuts.

• Total planned disability benefit cuts are at least £9 billion and not the £4.8 billion being reported.

• Number of households to be plunged into poverty by the PIP cuts alone is at least 350,000 – 4000,000 including 50,000 children.

• 1.5 million Deaf and Disabled people will be badly impacted by the changes to PIP, not just the 800,000 being reported.

• MPs will be forced to vote on the cuts without having all the information and based on the misleading figures that have been reported.

What can I do as a disabled person?

• If you’re not already a member – join DPAC!

• Set up a DPAC group in your area if one doesn’t exist!

• Participate in DPAC Actions to Scrap the Benefit Cuts

• Organise locally with other Disabled People to mobilise support for our campaign

• Contact unions, trades councils, Labour party branches, and build a broad based movement to reverse these austerity cuts.
