This is an extremely dangerous policy that the Department of Health is seeking to implement.

The UK and Stormont needs to reset how they treat their disabled and carers citizens.

We must oppose this policy.

#DPACNI #ResetPlan #MikeNesbittp

dpacni.bsky.social @dpacni.bsky.social · Jul 10

The Department of Health's Reset Plan suggests home care charges.

DPAC NI urges Mike Nesbitt to scrap this harmful idea. It punishes disabled people & undermines rights.

We demand dignity, not debt.

It’s Day 4 of #DisabilityPrideMonth. Blind, deaf & learning-disabled people are still excluded from jury duty in the UK & Ireland — not for lack of ability, but because the system wasn’t built for us. That’s not fair. It’s discrimination.

Day 1 of #DisabilityPrideMonth and we’re met with spin, not solidarity.

This bill is still an attack.
Still designed to hurt.
And we’re not here for crumbs or cruelty.

Don't fall for the spin. This isn’t a concession — it’s a two-tier system that punishes future disabled people & those not yet on PIP or UC.

Vote NO on Tuesday. Kill the bill.

“The gov’t refuses to listen.”

DPAC NI condemns PIP & UC cuts as unjust, discriminatory & dangerous—especially in Northern Ireland.

We demand Stormont push back.
