The government has published no evidence to suggest that cutting disability benefits will get people back to work.

The evidence it has published found that these cuts would plunge hundreds of thousands of people into poverty.

More than a million pallets of unusable Covid PPE costing £8 billion have so far gone up in smoke

Billions were spent on unusable protective equipment, with priority contracts handed to associates of Conservative ministers.

When will someone be held accountable?

🚨Re. Workers with #LongCovid:

🔴52% worked reduced hours

🔴Work lost to LC = £5.7bn scaled up across UK

🔴Informal care = £4.8bn scaled up across UK

Labour Government has so far been silent on #Covid19 & #LongCovid. This can’t continue, action is needed urgently.

The words we use matter. It’s time to hold rogue MPs accountable who deliberately deceive the public. The UK Government must follow Wales' lead and commit to ban political lying now. Agree? Sign the petition:

If the minimum wage is £22,308 a yr, why does the govt expect a pensioner to live on £11,531? You can judge country on how it treats it's elderly.
Elderly are struggling to eat & 25% live in poverty.

This is shocking do people not deserve help for this? Compared to the cost of care it’s cheaper for medication for sure
"First drug to slow Alzheimer’s too costly for NHS".
What a bitter blow for those poor families struggling with Alzheimers (I've been there). And of course, at £20k a yr, the rich patients will be stocking up.

I decided not to take DM’s on this platform as it sometimes gets far too much to reply to everyone & I need a quieter life.
However, some people whom I don’t even follow, have been able to send me them.
On X that cannot happen unless you follow someone. Can anyone get a DM to anyone else on here?
