Something very sinister is happening in the UK:

25% of voters believe people crossing in small boats are the largest share of migrants

Truth: 2%

44% think refugees/asylum seekers are the majority of migrants

Truth: 16%

48% believe most migrants here are “illegal”

Truth: 4%.

I don’t understand why more people are not in a state of higher alert and panic over this.
Are those of us who are in some alternate reality?

TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT PROTEST RIGHTS

Our fundamental right to protest is under threat. We must act urgently to protect it.

Email the House of Lords today and tell them to SCRAP anti-protest laws in the Crime and Policing Bill:

@Helen_Whately on #trevorphillips saying people are getting Motabilty cars for Acne, ADHD and Tennis elbow.
This is completely untrue.
How the fuck does she get away with this. #bbclaurak

“Huge swathes” of severely disabled people will be hit by Universal Credit cuts, contrary to government claims they will be protected. 

My exclusive in today’s Guardian ahead of the vote: https://t.co/qZ8Epojzvj

[Canary @TheCanaryUK]

The DWP is quietly trying to get a private company to connect it to disabled people's bank accounts

It now wants open source banking software - meaning claimant's bank accounts will be directly linked to their Universal Credit journals.

NO, REALLY.

[Prem Sikka @premnsikka]

The Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) Bill gives the UK state powers of surveillance on the bank accounts of the poor, old, sick, disabled receiving benefits.

You won't be told, can't appeal against it, no court order needed.

Are you ready?

No 10 rethinking winter fuel payment cut.

Must restore WFP. End two-child benefit cap, disability benefit cut, snooping on benefit claimants' bank accounts. Compensate 1950s born women.

End energy,/water profiteering. Cut taxes on the poor. Tax the rich.

Pov: your income is £92 a week Universal Credit.

Your weekly costs are:
- £40 food
- £26 electricity and gas
- £6 water bills
- £8 wifi and internet
- £20 travel
- £7 clothes
- £15 toiletries and cleaning products

[John McDonnell @johnmcdonnellMP]

If Labour decision makers think “reviewing” Winter Fuel Allowance will save them, they’re not living in same world as rest of us. Only scrapping of WFA cut & dropping completely plans to cut benefits to disabled will show that as PM claimed, “he gets it.” https://t.co/s2Wy7JFAm7

Pure, nonsensical cruelty from @DWPgovuk.

For 5 years - without telling her - they let this mother unknowingly earn 83p-£1.92p per week too much as a school dinner lady, while juggling caring for her son with severe autism.

Then they slammed her with a bill for £10k.

Vile.

[Canary @TheCanaryUK]

Amnesty just slammed the DWP as 'consciously cruel' in scathing report

"Lives are being ruined by a system that is cruel & erodes dignity by design. We are in a state of severe human rights violations".

Amnesty's words, not ours. For shame @leicesterliz

Here's a reminder that Unpaid Carers save the UK economy £184bn a year.
Many unpaid carers are disabled themselves.
Labour's Evil #DisabilityBenefits Cuts are incredibly damaging to the UK economy.

[Resolution Foundation @resfoundation]

More than two-thirds of the confirmed welfare cuts will fall on the poorest half of the country.

The biggest cut is raising the eligibility threshold for PIP, a benefit not related to work status, saving £4.5 billion. 800,000 stand to lose up to £6,300.
