Get your MP to act against cuts

MPs never respond to anything I sent mine this

Restricting PIP impacts more than just our income

In this argument about the govs plans to restrict PIP and reduce money for disabled people, there is something I think that isn't being spoken about enough.

Restricting the eligibility criteria from PIP impacts more than just our income. It impacts disabled people's ACCESS.

PIP is used nationwide (and even internationally) as evidence of disability. A medical diagnosis hasn't been considered 'enough' for many years.

Denying people PIP makes it harder for people to get their access needs or adjustment needs met.

To get an Access Card, Disabled Persons Railcard, Disabily Cinema Card and to use disability access in places across the UK and even abroad, you require evidence of PIP (or adult DLA/AA).

Being denied PIP doesn't stop us being disabled. Being denied PIP disables us more.

It will financially cripple many of us but even more importantly, it will also restrict our access, prevent our carers being able to claim support for caring for us, and have such a large knock-on effect that is beyond simply the money we receive.

For me it isn't just about the money. It about every area of my life.

If I lost PIP, my carer could no longer afford to support me.

If I lost PIP, I could no longer access an adapted vehicle.

Both of these things means I would have to give up my job.

If I lost PIP, I could no longer access many venues across the UK, I could not takea carer with me or use disabled access.

If I lost PIP, I would lose my freedom.

If I lost PIP, I would lose my life.

@Hopeless Even if they reply, it's a standard cut copy and paste from whatever their ridiculous discriminatory manifesto says (same one used by the trios- Starmer,Kendall&Reeves). When you ask something personal …. they go quiet… they are just mere puppets controlled by Starmer !!!

No not bleak at all completely expected

I did send quick email asking mp view and silence.

That is not a usual thing as they are very vocal with communication so I'm guessing it's either

A) Bombarded with emails over the bombshell

B) Agrees with the proposed cuts but doesn't want to confirm

C) Doesn't agree but been called to number 10 and told to gwt on board or else

My guess is C) As she was more left Corbyn camp

Tori my email was very sharp

"What's your position on the proposed benefit cuts"? She has replied over years on anything but this one I'll be sending same email again if I've not heard anything after few weeks.

Bambi That's why I voted for them with confidence pro active
