🚨🧵 Let's talk about hunger in the UK.

Parents are skipping meals so their kids can eat. People are frightened about rising energy bills. We've even heard from people who are surviving on sugary tea for days because they don't have enough money for food.

This isn't right.

🚨 CONFIRMED: Social security for disabled people has been slashed in the Spring Statement.

This is cruel, irresponsible and shameful.

People at food banks are already telling us that they’re terrified about how they will survive.

[Locality @localitynews]

We want to reiterate our support of the #GuaranteeOurEssentials campaign. We believe Universal Credit must always protect people from going without life's basics. No one should be left struggling to afford essentials

[Trussell @TrussellUK]

❗ 77% of people claiming Universal Credit and disability benefits have gone without essentials in the last 6 months.

Cuts to disability support risk pushing even more people deeper into poverty.

We cannot let this happen. Email your MP and urge them to call on the PM to think again 👉 https://t.co/RDhEQ0N8fK

[Trussell @TrussellUK]

Life costs MORE if you’re disabled:

- Extra energy costs for medical equipment
- Accessible transport or car adaptations
- Specialist services and therapies
- Paying more to get the weekly shop delivered
- Having to pay for a carer
- Higher heating bills

[Trussell @TrussellUK]

🚨 Today’s announcement is alarming.

It’s true, our social security system needs an urgent update.

But cutting disability benefits is not the way to fix it.

Disabled people are already three times more likely to face hunger. Huge cuts risk pushing more people to food banks.

[Joseph Rowntree Foundation @jrf_uk]

Secretary of State for Work and Pensions @leicesterliz's speech today laid out plans to cut disability and sickness benefits by billions.

❌No truly moral choice would leave disabled people without support designed to allow them to lead a dignified life, or facing hardship. 1/4
