The member of our community who was on the receiving end of the harassment - which included doxxing and d*ath threats - uses AI as an access tool, and these posts have been integral to our movement. We will never attack somebody for using an aid …

This "debate" about who should use what toilet doesn’t benefit anyone. It doesn’t fix the underfunding of women's refuges, NHS waiting lists leaving women in terrible pain, mums skipping meals to feed their kids. How about we get on with tackling the real issues affecting women?

#PIP The toxic DWP are sending out a vile survey asking disabled people in receipt of PIP spend their money They have no legal right to ask & you have no legal obligation to fill it in!
Image is on a blue background with purple & blue text 
The DWP Survey on how recipients are spending their pip money is being sent out 

So how should you respond? 

Option A: The DWP have no legal right to this information and you have no legal obligation to provide them with this information.  Their aim is to further stigmatise disability benefits and invalidate disabled people’s experiences 

Option B: Respond with Opposition 

Respond with a letter of opposition highlighting the injustices of the proposed changes and their injustices 

Remember; give no information on how you spend your personal independence payments

We’re fighting back against brutal cuts to disabled people’s support. Face masks required for everyone’s safety. After the protest, there will be a chance to chat with people from Bristol CAC. If you can’t attend, you can send us your words of solidarity to be shared at the protest (check insta)
A poster for a Bristol “CRIPS AGAINST CUTS” protest. At the top, there’s a red and black graphic of a wheelchair with a raised fist above it, surrounded by dripping red lines. The main text reads: “Broadmead Protest, April 26th, 2–4 pm, BS1 3ED.” A map shows the protest location near Broadmead and Merchant Street in Bristol, with a large red X marking the spot. Side text notes “Face masks required” and lists activities: “Wellbeing area, Speeches, Crafts, Refreshments.”
Text at the bottom reads “PIP FRAUD IS LESS THAN 0.02%
WHY PUNISH THE CRIPS?

@darrenpjones.bsky.social comparing benefit cuts to giving his kids £10 less pocket money per week… Borris Johnson knows the price of Champagne but not the price of milk… Poor old Rishi didn’t have Sky TV as a child… They have no idea what vulnerable people in the UK are going through #CutsKill

Fifteen years of austerity have devastated this country - but now Rachel Reeves is planning more cuts, plunging 50,000 children into poverty in the process. An indefensible choice. My piece for @metro.co.uk on the #SpringStatement. Link below!

Disabled people across the country were already terrified of the impact Reeves's cuts will have on them - and now she's set to announce more? This is unconscionable. This government must change course immediately, and tax wealth to repair our broken economy.

MPs getting a 2.8% pay rise is indefensible when the Chancellor is set to announce the biggest cuts to disability benefits on record tomorrow. It’s simple: MPs can just donate the extra pay. I’m giving mine to disabled people’s organisations & urge my colleagues to do the same.

Ministers are silent, but PIP cuts won’t just hurt disabled people — carers will suffer too. PIP is a passport to support like Carer’s Allowance & council tax reductions. Losing it could cost carers thousands a year, pushing families deeper into poverty. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

Some disabled people could lose £10k a year in benefits by end of decade
Experts say planned cuts will deliver series of ‘painful income shocks’ for many
