Hey @Uber_Support why have you just cancelled my pre booked ride to the hospital, 10 minutes before pickup time, and charged me a cancellation fee??

"I am writing this letter to thank you for the proposed award of Member of the Order of the British Empire in the New Year 2026 Honours List for services to disabled people and to let you know that regrettably, I must decline at this time..." read Tressa Burke's full letter sent.

BREAKING: Full details of those welfare bill concessions:

3) Consultation on PIP cuts, with changes to be made at committee stage

Today, we handed in over 100,000 petition signatures to 10 Downing Street 📋

It’s a clear message to the government: the cost of cuts is catastrophic ✂️

I am really saddened by the level of vitriol and hatred being directed toward the trans community.

We are losing our common humanity. How hard is it to treat people with kindness and respect?

Trans people are human beings — and they deserve to live in dignity.

Despite JK Rowling's attempts to hijack International Asexuality Day, all she succeeded in doing was amplifying it, showing why asexual awareness matters, what acephobia looks like, and how unhinged she is. She played herself.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Your bills are going up because this government would rather protect the profits of a few corporations than the livelihoods of millions of ordinary people.

End this outrageous rip-off, and take water and energy into public ownership now.

Lots of people are worried about the government's plans to cut disability benefits.

We’ve answered some of your most common questions to help make sense of these proposals 🤔❓

We're also keeping our site updated with the most up-to-date information: https://t.co/BtU3j0NP8w🔗

[Tom Pollard @PollardTom]

This, from a DWP press release yesterday (https://t.co/uIgTCv4EnC), is outrageous

In two short paragraphs it peddles multiple falsehoods about the current system that will be used to justify upcoming cuts & changes

Here's what MPs & journalists should be challenging... 🧵

After years of rising costs, disabled people are already on the brink.

Almost half of families in poverty include someone who is disabled.

Cuts to disability benefits would be catastrophic.

It’s time to act

Last night’s @C4Dispatches programme was bitterly disappointing 📺

This was a chance to challenge the negative rhetoric on disability benefits. But instead, it felt like another hit job on ill and disabled people 🧵

BENEFITS NEWS:

Plans to replace PIP payments with a voucher scheme have been scrapped.

The DWP has confirmed it won't go ahead with the proposals introduced by the last government.

'This just feels like another slap in the face'

Martin Hibbert survived the Manchester Arena bombing and spoke to #BBCBreakfast after Mims Davies was appointed minister for disabled people at the most junior level in government

It's been 6 days without a Disability Minister, this is unacceptable. Join us in calling on the Government to #BringBackTheDisabilityMinister

[MS Society UK @mssocietyuk]

We’re appalled that the Prime Minister is not replacing the Minister for Disabled People. Despite making up almost a quarter of the population, disabled people are yet again being treated like they don't exist. (1/4)
