Next week's Universal Credit and PIP Bill will impose poverty on disabled people. It is unacceptable the government are not publishing key information on the scale of that impact.

Timms is playing with you. Its only 1 in 10 by 2029/30 because most people won't have gone through a complete reassessment by that date. Some won't have had a reassessment form by that dare, and others will be waiting in the system as reassessments take up to a year. In subsequent years, the numbers affected will get higher and higher. If Timms was sure what he was doing was right, he wouldn't obscure the real figures in this way.

There's also the issue that those of us losing PIP and then LCWRA when the WCA is scrapped will lose £9000 or more.

Thank you as ever for your support, Andy. Hundreds of thousands of vulnerable people are petrified at the prospect of what is to come should this bill become law. None of us Labour voters ever imagined that a Labour Party could morph into the unrecognisable entity that it has.

what part of 'disabled people aren't well enough to work' is this government still failing to understand?

@BettyBeingBetty Thank you Andy for calling this out, people like me are terrified of this bill, under the proposals I will lose my PIP at my next review Nov 26, I will never work again due to many illnesses including a brain tumour, how am I supposed to live

Thanks for trying I hate how mps lie about pip but se specially him who has no excuse not knowing pip isn’t an out of work benefit but he doesn’t care

900,000 will lose both pip and the universal health element 91% being those aged 60. In my case I will lose £10,700 a year which will KILL ME AND THOUSANDS MORE .THE GOVERNMENT ARE LYING TO MPS AND PUBLIC THESE ARE DWP'S FOI OWN FIGURES

He says investing in people going into work but are pulling access to work funding 🤦♂️🤦♂️

@AndyMcDonaldMP they are lying! 87% of current claimants do not score 4+ on one descriptor in the daily living section.

Stephen Timms sounding like the tory that he is.
