And live by others giving!
I scorn to work,
But by the highway lurk,
And lie to get my living"

Starmer announced a new DWP AI assistant - and it's immediately been proven to be terrible and not fit for purpose, just like the DWP

Dicey was a bigot who vehemently hated both refugees and poor people, particularly so if they lived in cities
It is no coincidence that this nonsense is being revived now
Healthwatch England and all local Healthwatch branches are being abolished. Their independent functions are being moved "in-house" to govt bodies & local authorities as part of the NHS restructuring.
A new Patient Experience Directorate is being created within the Department of Health and Social Care to "manage" patient voices centrally.
Mmm
A groundbreaking book that uncovers the hidden histories of disabled people who fought against injustice shows disabled people are still “locked in bureaucratic battles” for support, just as they were in the 16th and 17th centuries.

New government research has proved disabled activists were right to warn that receiving employment advice on top of NHS talking therapy would push many people with mental distress further away from the jobs market.

NEW: Alongside UNISON, PCS, NEF, and tenants unions, we've written to Rachel Reeves demanding the government freeze rents.
If we want to end the affordability crisis, we need a temporary rent freeze followed by long-term rent controls and investment in council housing.
The Work Capability Assessment is not fit for purpose but the Govt are manipulating that fact to 'justify' making PIP the sole gateway for health & disability benefits
This is not a benevolent act, they know it will mean 100,000s will no longer qualify
OPPOSE THIS BY END OF DAY
Palantir claims its software saves medics time they can spend on patient care.
But leaked internal NHS documents have revealed that Palantir software is 10 times slower than alternative tool 🐌

This NEETs thread is discriminatory: it blames disability on ‘smartphones’, pathologises a whole generation, and erases that many NEET young people are disabled or ill. It’s stigma dressed up as analysis. @IpsoNews
Support for disabled people to stay in work has crashed since Summer 2024.
Those with hearing & visual impairments are being shut out of work and losing their jobs (and their skilled Support Workers are losing their jobs too). @UKLabour did this as one of the 1st things it did.
