Disability Labour is appalled by the Labour Party’s decision to suspend 4 MPs & remove envoy roles from 3 more—just for standing up against cuts to disabled people. We stand with them. ✊ Sign the petition to reinstate the whip: 👉 actionnetwork.org/petitions/rein…

I'm standing with disabled people. I’m voting NO to disability benefit cuts. The Government must press pause and rework this policy working alongside disabled people's charities and groups. @Dis_PPL_Protest

Our message from outside Parliament is clear: Stop the cuts. Disabled people are not your political or fiscal football - our voices should be at the heart of decisions made about our lives. #StopTheCuts #WelfareNotWarfare #KillTheBill

I've signed a reasoned amendment, backed by 138 disabled people's organisations, to reject disability benefit cuts. By failing to consult, the government excluded the voices of disabled people. When organisations representing disabled people are speaking out, we must listen.

We’re asking all MPs to vote against the UCPIP Bill today. The government’s own impact assessment says the cuts will plunge 150,000 people into poverty by the end of this Parliament. This is likely an underestimate and says nothing of the people already in poverty who will sink into even greater hardship. MPs must protect their disabled constituents and vote against this Bill today.

I have signed a new reasoned amendment on behalf of every disabled person and backed by 138 disability organisations. We must be their voice today. I didn't come here to make people worse off. That's why I'm voting against this Bill.

The #WelfareBill is the wrong decision! We are the sixth richest economy in the world - we need to stop making the most vulnerable in our society pay and start to seriously look at a #WealthTax

I just asked the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions to name a single disabled people’s organisation that supports the Government’s “reforms”. She couldn’t name one. The Government should scrap this awful Bill, but if it doesn’t I will vote against it.

I am going into the Commons Chamber to speak against & vote against the Government’s appalling Bill to cut disability benefits. I urge all Labour MPs to do so. I was elected to protect disabled people not harm them.
