Disability Labour is appalled by the Labour Party’s decision to suspend 4 MPs & remove envoy roles from 3 more—just for standing up against cuts to disabled people.
We stand with them. ✊

[Andy McDonald MP for Middlesbrough & Thornaby East @AndyMcDonaldMP]

I'm standing with disabled people.

I’m voting NO to disability benefit cuts.

The Government must press pause and rework this policy working alongside disabled people's charities and groups.

Solidarity @DisabilityWales with all campaigners at Westminster fighting for the rights and very survival of disabled people across the UK @DisRightsUK @InclusionLondon @Dis_PPL_Protest #TakingThePIP

[Bell Ribeiro-Addy MP @BellRibeiroAddy]

I've signed a reasoned amendment, backed by 138 disabled people's organisations, to reject disability benefit cuts.

By failing to consult, the government excluded the voices of disabled people.

When organisations representing disabled people are speaking out, we must listen.

[CitizensAdvice @CitizensAdvice]

We’re asking all MPs to vote against the UCPIP Bill today.

The government’s own impact assessment says the cuts will plunge 150,000 people into poverty by the end of this Parliament.

This is likely an underestimate and says nothing of the people already in poverty who will sink into even greater hardship.

MPs must protect their disabled constituents and vote against this Bill today.

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

I'm just going into the House of Commons chamber to speak against and then to vote against the Disability Cuts Bill.

[Cat Eccles MP @catecclesstour]

I have signed a new reasoned amendment on behalf of every disabled person and backed by 138 disability organisations. We must be their voice today. I didn't come here to make people worse off.
That's why I'm voting against this Bill.

[Sharon Graham @UniteSharon]

The #WelfareBill is the wrong decision!

We are the sixth richest economy in the world - we need to stop making the most vulnerable in our society pay and start to seriously look at a #WealthTax

[lan Byrne MP @IanByrneMP]

I just asked the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions to name a single disabled people’s organisation that supports the Government’s “reforms”.

She couldn’t name one.

The Government should scrap this awful Bill, but if it doesn’t I will vote against it.

[John McDonnell @johnmcdonnellMP]

I am going into the Commons Chamber to speak against & vote against the Government’s appalling Bill to cut disability benefits. I urge all Labour MPs to do so. I was elected to protect disabled people not harm them.

[Emma Lewell MP @EmmaLewell]

Today I spoke in the #welfarereform debate.

This Bill needs to be scrapped.

[Disability Labour @DisabilityLab]

@LeftPhoenix Thanks for pointing this out. Corrrected

[Disability Labour @DisabilityLab]

Brilliant speeches for the reasoned amendment! Stop the bill!

[Rhian Davies @dwrhian]

Understanding the Social Model of Disability is pivotal to challenging ableism in society and tackling barriers to rights and inclusion. @DisabilityWales Social Model Toolkit is essential reading for all in 2025!
