Hi, hope that you are all well.

@SusanSavageLee1 Both to be honest

[Susan Savage Lee @SusanSavageLee1]

Do you like stories that use flashbacks or do you prefer chronological stories? #writingcommunity #readingcommunity

[Ratigan @RattusMalumus]

@SeanArmy85 @cedgson91 That's the elephant in the room here, I think. Most of the work available to long term disabled and autistic people does not pay.

It also means risking UC and PIP eligibility, while also worsening health and causing burnout.

@AlinaCapella Trump is an moron nothing more

If you voted for Trump, unfollow me. Do it now. I have no tolerance for bigots of any kind. #fucktrump #fuckproject2025

Managed migration update, more money to accelerate the move as failures continue https://t.co/6ml1fFiMfE

#Dyspraxia is often invisible, but the shame isn't. It's in each stare, every impatient sigh. If you're a healthcare provider, please ensure you know enough about dyspraxia and what it co-occurs with including autism, ADHD and mental illness to be patient, validating + helpful.

@cedgson91 I am of the same opinion myself lessons however need to be learnt and addressed

[Catherine @cedgson91]

@SeanArmy85 True but I doubt they will unfortunately

[Sean Armstrong @SeanArmy85]

@cedgson91 @UKLabour The issue here is that employers will take advantage of disabled/autistic people more needs to be done to protect the most vulnerable

[Catherine @cedgson91]

@UKLabour Getting disabled people back to work through “programs” that will “help” but in reality will cut/save welfare because apparently we’re worthless & dragging the economy down if we’re not. Fixing foundations shouldn’t be at the expense of vulnerable lives - eg disabled/elderly

[Catherine @cedgson91]

Ah yes continuing what the tories started with more demonising disabled people like M Stride when he proposed PIP to be vouchers🤦🏼
These programs hurt people esp those with neurodiverse & complex needs
They will not work for everyone
Labour want “savings” (cuts)
& every1 working

[Sean Armstrong @SeanArmy85]

@SiobhianAuthor My pleasure I hope that this is alright and you didn't mind me doing this.

[Siobhian R. Hodges @SiobhianAuthor]

Thank you, Sean! 😊📚

[Sean Armstrong @SeanArmy85]

@cedgson91 @DWPgovuk Disabled people miss out in work in my honest opinion and experience work does not pay the government should realise this the issue doesn't lie with people who are disabled but with employers

[Catherine @cedgson91]

@DWPgovuk If you want to address poverty in the disabled community how about you make sure UC & PIP are enough to live on for all! 40% of UC are working, cos wages are too low
Energy bills are higher. Disabled ppl have extra costs of £1010 a month! No cuts to benefits either would help too
