Wow @darrenpjones.bsky.social come & speak to the 1000 people we, as a self funding disability charity have supported this year & tell them it’s like cutting your kids pocket money… #kickthepoor

I run a disability benefits charity. This last year we have supported over a 1000 people. Everyone had a legitimate claim. I’m devastated for our clients, I’m devastated for my staff who are going to have to deal with this sh*t show. A Labour govt 🤦‍♀️ @disabilityrightsar.bsky.social #cruel

I think my disability charity is going to be very busy after this statement.

Why is #LizKendall shouting?

@allymcgovern.bsky.social I didn’t vote for this, my charity who support people with disability benefits & attendance allowance didn’t want this. Don’t punish the poor, reform the system. Talk to us about how you do that. What you’re doing is not it.

#SkyNews educate your contributors on the paper review. You do not lose PIP if you get a job! PIP is not an out of work benefit. Seriously misleading tosh without pushback. #truthmatters

Hope #LizKendall new look was paid for by herself and she didn’t sponge it off the state. #disabilitycuts #statesponsoredhaircuts

Looking ahead to the disability benefits green paper, this essay for @citizensadvice.bsky.social makes the case for a system focused on improving health outcomes. Co-authors @maddyirose.bsky.social, @victoria-anns.bsky.social & Simon Collerton We challenge the 5 big falsehoods underpinning cuts…🧵

Dear #SkyNews maybe stop covering that psychopathic administrations press conferences unless you’re willing to fact check in real time. You do your viewers a disservice.

Try to avoid the news as much as possible, not because the world is a mess, it is, but because our media & those who report on the news are awful. Avoiding challenge/refuting lies by telling the truth is not controversial, it’s journalism & this crop of ‘reporters’ are just talking heads. Shameful

I haven’t been posting since joining because a) so busy at work b) the world is f**ked, it’s depressing, but I have been reading posts & the tone of this site is so less triggering, decent & conciliatory, so I may post more when I can 🤗 in the meantime, here’s a view of my view this morning. 🌅

Bought yesterday, finished this morning. As a dog owner, I’ve followed #SophiefromRomania since Rory & Diane brought her home. I ❤️ this story, thank you for sharing Sophie with us. What an incredibly brave account of a journey of love.

This last year, I’ve developed part of my garden into an allotment, with polytunnels. #StormBert has trashed it.. I may have to drink wine later for the trauma..
