Q: Why do people who need housing or #benefits help put personal & financial info into chatgpt etc?
A: coz they can't get answers from councils or the DWP. As for data security: councils lose people's info all the time. #AI probably already has it https://t.co/GygOPv65vM
#PIP#UC
Appalling & absolutely outrageous that zero action was taken!
Figures released by the DWP show that there were 238 complaints against assessors in the period September 2024 -March 2025, but not one resulted in disciplinary action being taken.

Q: Why do people in need upload personal data, medical histories and financial info into #chatgpt etc?
A: because they can't get the info or support they should from councils or the #DWP.
Might as well ask a bot for help. At least chatgpt is polite. https://t.co/Ygf1WNNurm
To @eastdevon where a #disabled ex services man must drag himself over the floor to the loo - he's in non-adapted temp housing. His actual council home is rotten with damp. So glad Labour is focused on infighting rather than issues like this https://t.co/k6Ab7ruiGi #housingcrisis
Also this guy has to drag himself across the floors to the toilet in the temporary housing East Devon council put him in because there's no room for a wheelchair in the temp place.
Here's a #disabled ex-services guy whose wheelchair fell through the floorboards in his council home because the floor was so damp and rotten. Class. Meanwhile Labour dicks around with a leadership contest nobody cares about. Hope they rot. https://t.co/yYwMyiaRIt

#InaccessibleTransport
The government is now making disabled people wait to 2029 for more ‘recommendations’ on inaccessible transport
https://t.co/0mpNACl3oV via @johnpringdns
The truth is that celebs blathering on about their mental health sufferings and #autism as their “superpower” - has made govts happy to target real people with those issues for #PIP and benefit cuts. Autism is not a superpower btw. It is awful. https://t.co/Cl1K6gOb6Q
"The government is telling us you cannot be here."
Powerful words from the people of Tottenham who are fighting for their community.
This Saturday 18 April 1PM, join the largest housing action in years to demand rent controls and council homes.
I talk with journalist @cjayanetti about govt having NO idea which #disabled people #PIP cuts would hit. They thought it'd be people with #autism & mental health issues. Chaminda has the numbers. Govt apparently didn't https://t.co/ehsY2kzDha @Dis_PPL_Protest@johnpringdns

@hangbitch explains the case of a young autistic boy being evicted and also forced on transport he can’t cope with - In this case, the boy is believed to be at risk of harm from the housing department of his own council. You could say that Hackney council is the abuser.
That’s because the council insists that this family must be evicted and the boy must be torn from his home and school, and put into temporary housing.
The boy can’t cope with change or stress. He melts down on public transport – and he’d have to get public transport to travel from temporary housing to his school.
At the moment, his school is just across the road from the council house that Hackney wants to evict the family from. The boy has 1-2-1 specialist support at the school and an EHCP.
He is familiar with his school, his teachers, his neighbourhood and his routines there. If the family is evicted, he may be out of school for some time, because of his problems with travelling.
The council could grant the family a tenancy and let them stay, but the council refuses to do that.
His paediatric doctor wrote a safeguarding referral against the local authority, the local authorities own social care team shut down the referral
This also leads to another question should social workers be completely independent of the local authority? @BASW_UK@LGAcomms@wesstreeting@SKinnock
Also surely if this was a money issue wouldnt it be cheaper to give a tenancy rather than use temporary accommodation which can cost a extortionate amount?
Or is the plan possibly moving out of the local authorities area so the EHCP which would likely stay in place until 16 moves off their case load too? as that would save the authority money but do great harm to the boy and his family and support network and also jeopardise being able to locate another school suitable 🤔

"The risks Hackney council is taking with this #disabled boy are terrifying." His paediatric doctor talks to me about council plans to evict this little boy from his council home & how councils must be stopped from putting #autistic kids into temp housing https://t.co/HYSv81M2rJ
