'No more deaths from benefit cuts' was our message to the DWP today. All of us deserve to live a good and dignified life.
#NoMoreBenefitDeaths
Video shows protestors gathered with signs, banners and megaphones. Many signs give the names of people killed by benefit cuts.
Many people on benefits are deemed work shy or scroungers.
But the approval process is the most degrading, intrusive thing you will ever go through.
A tick box system does not work. They forget they are dealing with actual people.
#NoMoreBenefitDeaths
The dreaded Caxton house…..to make some noise to the powers that be.
Pushing folks to the limits.
It’s cruel and calculating.
Thriving not just surviving ….
#NoMoreBenefitDeaths
Office bods in warm , dry , comfy surroundings….
Power trippers?
Dignity strippers?
Tick box voyeurism?
Simply cut off their income…
Mothers driven to despair?
Vulnerable in tears alone unable to defend themselves?
#NoMoreBenefitDeaths
On local councils raising council tax only for people on benefits, which disproportionately impacts Disabled people, carers and mothers: 'We need to unite and fight.'
#NoMoreBenefitDeaths
On the day that #disabled people gathered outside the #DWP offices to demand #NoMoreBenefitDeaths , #LizKendall made THIS speech. #Labour can't be trusted on #disability any more than the #Tories . Disgusting, Liz Kendall Keir Starmer !
#NoMoreBenefitDeaths We heard from someone who has lost vital income during the forced migration to Universal Credit. Not received a penny from DWP of what they are owed despite successful legal challenge, in extreme distress. Testimony read by paula peters of DPAC
Today national day of action. #NoMoreBenefitDeaths Some banners from across the country 👇🏻 #StructuralViolence #Democide #DisabilityDiscrimination from our U.K. government who want us silenced to cover up their crimes against us. Silence is complicity. We demand justice. Repost.
Cops threatened to arrest peaceful disabled activists at the #NoMoreBenefitDeaths action. I was physically assaulted by a cop and they caused this wheelchair user to cry because of the abuse and trauma inflicted on her by the cops. I wonder if those cops are proud of themselves?
We'll be back here again soon as well, protesting over the DWP's latest attacks on chronically ill and disabled people #NoMoreBenefitDeaths #WorldMEDay #ExposeMENow #ExposeLongCovidNow
