"On Monday, March 4th, Disabled People Against Cuts (DPAC) returned to the streets...The protest, which was called two days before the budget, began at the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) with speeches and then moved a few yards to Victoria Street, which was then blocked with wheelchairs, strollers and activists with banners for around an hour." https://freedomnews.org.uk/2024/03/05/dpac-return-to-the-streets/ #DisabledPeopleAgainstCuts #DPAC

"Paula Peters, another DPAC steering group member, said the end of Atos assessments was “welcome news”, but other companies carrying out assessments were “still denying disabled people financial support and denying disability and causing distress and harm”. She added: “We’ve a lot of campaigning to continue with.”"

Again we've got a piece of news that isn't good, but I wanted to share it to highlight the heroic disabled people who travelled to Geneva when the UK government couldn't be bothered. Thank you all - I can't thank you enough for fighting for us.
