Thousands of disabled women could find themselves trapped with abusers as a result of the government’s upcoming welfare cuts, campaigners have warned, despite Keir Starmer offering concessions on the reforms late on Thursday www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Welfare cuts ‘could leave thousands of disabled women trapped with abusers’
Exclusive: The prime minister’s controversial welfare cuts would deepen economic insecurity for disabled women and make them more vulnerable to abuse, a new report has warned

If as PM says it’s a “moral argument” surely it would make more sense to ask someone who can afford to spend $50 million on a wedding to contribute more instead of forcing future disability claimants, many of whom will already be living in poverty into deeper hardship & despair?

I see the UK has gone for upping spending on the army *and* being all in on cutting benefits for the disabled. I assume this will come for anyone else they insist is not contributing to society by working in an arms factory. Or with AI.

Seriously this is not gender equality … this is wealthy women doing what all wealthy people do, spending obscene amounts of money on nothing that advances women, humanity or helps anyone at all.

Here’s a poem about going for a walk to clear my head of all the news.
Escape into Nature
 
There are times when it all gets too much
and I have to switch off my phone and the radio
and my brain, and escape outside.
 
I say good afternoon to next door’s dog.
Have you seen the latest about the government, he barks,
you couldn’t make it up. I offer a weak smile
and make my excuses before walking on past the pub,
whose sign creaks in protest
against the steep rise in the cost of living.
 
From the tall branches of a tree, a seminar
is in progress: a squirrel sets out his ideas
about how to alleviate the refugee crisis,
while a chaffinch flaps his wings angrily.
It all gets too much for one leaf, 
who hurls itself down, remembering Trump.
 
I feel the eyes of a murderous-looking crow upon me,
annoyed no doubt about global warming,
so make my way down to the river where – 
for a few precious, stolen moments –
I close my eyes and listen to the water
as it laps gently against the bank,
 
until I hear the slap of wet feet approaching.
Thought I’d find you here, the duck quacks,
Now what the hell we gonna do about Putin?

The independent regulator has announced a £2,500 pay rise for MPs. At a time when disabled people are facing the biggest cuts to disability benefits on record, this is simply wrong. I’ll be donating mine to charities supporting disabled people in Coventry & across the country.

Happy World Poetry Day to all who celebrate. If you’re interested in writing poetry yourself, I hope this poem will be of some use.
Ten Rules for Aspiring Poets

1.  Poetry does not have to rhyme.
     Well, at least not all the time always.

2.  Metaphors can lend a poem power
     (but mixing them isn’t good).
      Should they start to fly in all directions,
      nip them in the bud.

3.  Focus and concentration
     are important skills to hone.
     Close the door. Turn off the wi-fi.
     Don’t get distracted by your ph

4.  Avoid clichés like the plague.

5.  Don’t write stuff that’s a bit vague.

6.  The use of unnecessarily long words
     may result in reader alienation.
     Curb your sesquipedalianism
     to obviate any obfuscation.

7.  Always proof-read you’re work.
     Accuracy can be it’s own reward!
     And remember that the penis
     mightier than the sword.

8.  Check haiku closely
     for lines which have too few
     or too many syllables.

9.  Never ever follow rules.

Folks, I see a lot of you recently feeling free to use some variation of the "R" word for mentally disabled, including appending the last four letters as suffix to describe people you don't like. I'm not down with that, so if you do it in my comments, I'm gonna hide that shit at least. Be better.
