A friend sent me this image of her placard, made for demo 14 years ago when Tories were in power.
Sadly still relevant today with a Labour Government.

Being disabled, or living in a household where someone is disabled, is one of the strongest predictors of poverty in the UK—yet Labour has chosen to cut £5bn from disability benefits, stripping support from 1 million people

A cruel, regressive move that will likely deepen inequality and poverty
