The Cripple Chronicles

breaking down the UK proposed benefit cuts (ep.43)

Becca

Hi friends! 

Thank you for joining me for another episode of the podcast.I decided to sit down and share what I know about the UK governments current proposal to cut and freeze benefits in the UK like PIP, UC and ADP. Stuff like this makes me increasingly anxious especially because I already have a difficult relationship with money. I dont want to live life in poverty but it feels like I dont really have much of a choice.

I also know there is a proposed plan to not stop benefits something like 'right to try' where people can attempt working without reduction in benefits however there is still not a lot of information on this and Disability Charities like Scope are worried this could be a smoke screen and blending the line between in work benefits and out of work benefits which will impact disabled people.
