At #PMQs Starmer opens by talking about the selfless dedication of unpaid carers... Yes โ€“ so stop these awful #PIP cuts then โ€“ as many dedicated carers will lose their Carer's Allowance as a result of these immoral cuts. #CarersWeek #WelfareCuts

Dear Policy Exchange, PIP is not an out-of-work benefit. So why are you trying to score political points by insisting young people on #PIP must work, volunteer or go into training? PIP enables disabled people to do these things. Cutting it will do the opposite. Thanks Dr Watts

New: The government has spent ยฃ400 million on staff costs for PIP appeals since 2013. But the real cost? The anguish, breakdowns, and worsening illness caused by a system built on disbelief. Disabled people shouldnโ€™t have to fight for survival. #PIP #DisabilityJustice

Why do the government keep saying there is โ€˜no consensus from expertsโ€™ on what is increasing the number of people on #PIP? Literally every expert recognises long delays for treatment are worsening disability which becomes entrenched more with lack of early care.

#PIP exists solely because disabled people have a higher cost of living. And that DOESN'T ONLY APPLY IF YOU'RE SEVERELY DISABLED. We need eg lots of cabs; pre-prepared food, phone calls, totally reliable heating, more laundry, more drying, food delivery. Everything we buy is delivered.

"proposals to make it harder for disabled people with less severe conditions to claim PIP" must go through. The Prime Minister of a supposedly progressive country thinks it's fine to have a hierarchy of disability where the "less severe" get no support. Shame on any MP who votes in favour of this.
