Absolutely right.
Government is planning to strip vital support from a million disabled people – but they won’t even consider introducing a fair tax on the extremely wealthy, even though this would raise nearly 5 times more.
They urgently needs to rebalance their priorities ⚖️

Our current punitive welfare system has led to the deaths of hundreds of Disabled people at the hands of benefits cuts.
The Government not only refuses to fix this - but is placing us at risk of further punishment and surveillance.
Let us be clear: this is a political choice.

This isn't about best practice or what can be done. It's all about keeping their donors happy and cruelty.
I genuinely believe this govt is arrogant and nasty.
I'd like to see one of these gatekeeping careerist bigots try it. They would hate it and shit themselves plus transition would be utterly *wasted* on them.
Transphobes are like Russians. If you have something nice they think they're losing. Win-win is alien to them.

I ‘m not sure that this is as simple/ straightforward as you imply
e.g how do you measure someone’s net worth
Not so hard. Except making sure it's properly funded so that evaders get tossed into deep dungeons.
