It’s happening. A general election has been called.
We want you to know first and foremost that we’re fighting your corner.
And we won’t stop until everyone with a mental health problem gets support and respect. (1/2)

friendly reminder that they don’t just hand out PIP to anyone that fancies it!!! i am multiply disabled and have been too scared to ever apply for it because every single person i know that receives PIP has been subject to a lengthy and traumatic assessment process
Mental health has become a political talking point recently.
Lots of the rhetoric has been stigmatising, harmful and inaccurate.
It’s very distressing, and for some of us triggering, to hear mental health problems used as a political football.

We need every disabled person and ally to unite and fight and hit these Tory bastards back. We know you’re scared. But we need mass mobilisation. On the street online however you can. We need you to support us now as we support you. Stronger together
Today's news feels like an assault on disabled people.
We are in a cost-of-living crisis. Government looking to slash disabled people’s income by hitting personal independence payment (PIP) is a horrific proposal.
It's dangerous and risks leaving disabled people destitute.

🚨 Rishi Sunak today announced plans to reduce people being signed off sick from work.
We agree that people should be helped back into suitable employment.
But those of us living with mental illness should not be stigmatised if we are too unwell to work.
Rishi Sunak today announced plans to review the fit note system for people who aren’t well enough to work, with a focus on mental health.
His speech continues a trend in recent rhetoric that is stigmatising, harmful, and inaccurate.
Palestinians are being starved, executed and murdered. A genocide is ongoing.
As well as killing over 40,000 civilians, Israel has killed international aid workers, doctors, nurses and journalists. They don’t want you to know the truth.
Don’t stop talking about Gaza
