  4. In 2025 I spent £90 a week on care.
    I spent over £2000 on mobility aids, including repairs/servicing, though the year for my mobility scooters, plus an unknown amount charging my scooters.
    I spent at least an extra £15 a week on fuel in the cooler months compared with years when I was more active.
    Not sure about taxis in total, but between £15-30 a month.
    Plus the costs of ready meals and prepared veg packs for my bad weeks, when I have very little ability to do all that low budget cooking poorer people *should* do.

    This is all money that goes to other people from my bank, mostly businesses.

    My disability benefit? The amount the government contributes towards the extra costs of being disabled.
    From April 2025 it was £73.90 a week.

    Yet somehow the media and politicians convince people we get loads of extra money. And everytime the media stories increase, it heralds new cuts for disabled people; it's about scapegoating and cuts to our income.

  5. #Starmer & #Reeves#Labour currently following in the #Conservatives’ footsteps - goose-stepping all the way to #democide / #genocide of even more #disabled folk. Some 300,000 killed via #austerity and the (deliberate?) tragic #Covid19 mis-management fiasco. How many do the #reds intend to kill off?

  10. Disability Rights UK (#DRUK), said: “With almost 60 per cent of #Covid deaths being those of #disabled people, it is hardly surprising that the Covid inquiry found that pre-#pandemic planning failed to take sufficient account of those with pre-existing conditions, those living in deprivation or those from minority ethnic communities.”
