Pablo Martini (Geezer)<p>Labour’s proposal to implement a new “4-point rule” for PIP would strip over 1.1 million disabled people of their vital daily living support. This is a stealth cut disguised as reform — and it’s set to deepen poverty and hardship for the most vulnerable. It’s not just about numbers; this change will affect the lives of hundreds of thousands of disabled people, particularly those with mental health conditions, fluctuating disabilities, and complex needs.</p><p>If you’re concerned about the impact of these changes, here’s a template letter you can use to write to your MP and make your voice heard.</p><p>Read more from Mike, all about the proposed changes and how you can take action:</p><p> <a href="https://voxpoliticalonline.com/?p=97761" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">voxpoliticalonline.com/?p=9776</span><span class="invisible">1</span></a></p><p><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/DisabilityRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DisabilityRights</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/PIP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PIP</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/WelfareReform" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WelfareReform</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/LabourCuts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LabourCuts</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/SocialJustice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SocialJustice</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/MentalHealthMatters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MentalHealthMatters</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/DisabilityAwareness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DisabilityAwareness</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Austerity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Austerity</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/EndTheCuts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EndTheCuts</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/PIPChanges" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PIPChanges</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/JusticeForDisabledPeople" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JusticeForDisabledPeople</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/NoMoreCuts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NoMoreCuts</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/SocialSecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SocialSecurity</span></a></p>
