How does cutting disability benefits like PIP help people into work? The government hasn't provided any evidence that it does. In fact, removing PIP may force some disabled people who are currently in employment to drop out of work entirely. Me on BBC Radio 4 Today:

@BBCr4today Simple, Nadia, it doesn't help them into work at all. I just think they are lazy and I don't want to pay for them anymore, balancing the books on the backs of the poor Nice to see you thinking about the UK for a change! I was starting to think you were the MP for overseas!

We help Veterans secure their benefits with Medical Evidence and Nexus Letters. Are you, or someone you know, working on a VA Disability claim? We can help!

@BBCr4today On my street alone there are 4 households ( with larger than avg family) that I know of that could work, but choose not to. Whilst I am on state pension and a small pension from my employment, less than 15K per annum, pay tax to keep them leading a better life style than many.

@BBCr4today True. Additionally, cutting LCWRA will never get anybody into work either. All nonsense. @Jamestaylor2, @scope, @TakingThePIP1, @CommonsWorkPen

@RichardBurgon @BBCr4today It's the Nazis all over again with their Aktion T4 programme. Get rid of the elderly and disabled.

@BBCr4today Cutting PIP doesn’t help disabled people into work—it pushes them out of it. There's zero evidence it helps employment. For many, losing PIP means losing the support that makes work possible. This isn’t reform. It’s sabotage. #SavePIP #DisabilityRights

@BBCr4today You need to resign as a labour MP if you are truly against their policies
