DNS is looking for examples from the last few months of broadcasters, particularly BBC News and Sky News, that have failed to challenge claims that spending on 'welfare' is spiralling out of control and needs to be cut. Examples with links to video would be most useful. Thank you

The government should halt its cuts and reforms to Access to Work and commission new research to show exactly how important the scheme is to the disabled people who rely on it to stay working, according to a new report.

Instead, the Government introduced watered down regulations (RPEEPs) that fail to keep Disabled people safe.

You can still request a PEEP under existing protections. Our PEEPs toolkit can help.

The Government are failing to learn the lessons of Grenfell. We say Disabled people deserve better.

Almost half of those who died at Grenfell Tower (41%) were Disabled. The subsequent inquiry recommended fire evacuation plans called PEEPs (Personal Emergency Evacuation Plans).
