What's the point in having a vote if you're going to try and force everyone to vote one way, it's very undemocratic, I'm surprised this is allowed.

It still boggles my mind where all these magical jobs are going to come from that will be able to support those who might be able to work in some form. Plenty of non-disabled people out there are struggling to get jobs even without all the obstacles.

A sign of the significance of the challenge to Keir Starmer on these disability cuts: Labour grandee Dame Meg Hillier, chair of the Treasury select committee, is the lead signature on this followed by ten other Labour committee chairs. “Not the usual rebels,” one source tells me

Thank you so much , that’s really touched me that you thought of me . I’m laying in bed in a lot of pain right now as I dared to go out earlier but you’ve cheered me up .
I know when I was diagnosed almost 15 years ago I have glandular fever in my blood results and that helped my specialist diagnose me . I’ll definitely screenshot that for my evidence as I got my pip review form on the way .
Thank you 🙏1 -
I’ve never heard of this happening before what is it ? What power do they have to stop the cuts ? I’m really confused

They haven’t mentioned job seekers that are fit and healthy only to say they should get an increase ( which they should ). But with our money of course

What still reassures me about this whole business is the will to fight for us on the part of some MPs, even when threatened with the loss of the whip or their future careers as Labour politicians. The courage to do that despite all the negativity towards Labour is actually quite impressive. Especially people standing up like this to make a public point.
The government may or may not listen. But I think it does change the narrative because the negative momentum of this is so much greater than even the WFA allowance backlash (and that got mostly reversed now).
Disabled people's voices may not be being heard by the government directly, but there are people within Labour who are listening. Those people deserve to keep their seats, because they are putting the wellbeing of people ahead of their personal gain.You don't see anyone from the Tories or Reform putting their neck out to do that.
Starmer and co are unconscionable, but apparently not the whole party.

This amendment is the brainchild of Meg Hillier - chair of the Treasury select committee. Very much not a serial rebel or critic.
The first names on the amendment will be published tonight at 10.30 - but it’s expect to grow.
so we will have to check this out at 10:300
