There are summaries on the Disabilty Rights website of how the parties' manifestos affect disabled people.

For PIP, The Labour Party intend to scrap privatised assessment companies like Atos and Capita and end re-assessments for those with long term degenerative conditions.

 They will increase ESA by £30 a a week and scrap sanctions. And scrap the bedroom tax.

There are other welfare proposals as well.
