Please take part in and/or promote (including through Twitter or Facebook if possible) this new DPAC/PIRU (Public Interest Research Unit) survey. The results will be published BEFORE the General Election. But we need lots of completed forms quickly please. The study (which the survey will feed into) will look at:
- The impact of ten years of austerity, and changing work practices (including casualisation), on disabled workers.
- Whether benefit sanctions have discriminated against disabled people.
- The threat to equality and employment rights if Boris Johnson’s hard-right government wins the General Election.
Should anyone assessed as needing PIP be assessed financially yearly?
Through no fault of their own genuine people with disabilities and reliant on the help of benefits are being kept in oppression. How are we meant to better ourselves and our circumstances when everything is scrutinised by the authorities in assessments? Frightened to enter anything thatoffers cash prizes such as TV shows and competition for fear of any winings being siezed as income and care and benefits being stopped.
To start with all the people who have died because of the torys is disgusting and how they are treating the dying and disabled has to stop.They can not keep lying about this.
