Reposted by Leeds DPACDisabled People Against Cuts - DPAC @dis-ppl-protest.bsky.social · 18/05/2026#PIP #TUC The Government has tried to cut PIP, and is now looking at changing it. We think the government's review will be unfair and it will punish disabled people who can't work. DPAC is unhappy with the TUC's response to the review. dpac.uk.net/2026/05/dpac...dpac.uk.netDPAC response to TUC statement on PIP today - DPACWe are disappointed with the TUC statement on PIP today calling for reform on PIP by linking it with work. 01412
Leeds DPAC @leedsdpac.bsky.social · 12/03/2026Disability is an incredibly limiting thing, but it doesn't have to be. We don't think it's a controversial statement to say that society should be designed & built for the people in it, not to match a budget sheet. 1/3 100
