Very good, and thank you @pimlicat.bsky.social for being the first person I've seen on telly to articulate this well.
Our CEO @pimlicat.bsky.social on why the UK's disability benefits system PIP is deeply flawed.
"It will ask a question like, 'can you walk 200 metres?' Maybe you can if you have MS, but what you can't then do is get out of bed for two days. So you score zero on the PIP form."

What happened today isn’t just politics. ⚠️
Trump is reshaping the U.S. into a far-right, authoritarian state—favoring deals over values and aligning with autocrats worldwide.
A democracy without principles is just an oligarchy in disguise. 💔🇺🇸⚖️

Please, if you are able, support Independent bookshops.
They are the literary & social hubs of our high streets and communities.
Without their continued support, we simply wouldn't be around to publish .
Thank you.

A handful of billionaires now have unprecedented control over banking, the food we eat, the health care we can access and, now, the information we receive.
This is what oligarchy looks like.
