All concerned people urged to take-part and give your views Labour Government's Tory inspired attacks on disabled people, was presented to Parliament in a major speech from Liz Kendal last week.
The Canary, a web-based news outlet reports: "What is clear from Kendall’s announcement and the green paper today is that disabled people will be required to prove they deserve support even further in order to survive, something that many don’t have the capacity to do. The freezing and cut to Universal Credit’s health element is disastrous, too – and will lead to increased poverty and, potentially, people’s deaths. However this is just the start. The consultation will run until 30 June and its vital that as many disabled people as possible tell the government how these changes will affect them.
