Even with the changes, the Disability Cuts Bill will see nearly half a million disabled people denied PIP over the next 4 years.
MPs shouldn't vote to cut support for disabled people who'll need help cutting up food, washing or going to the toilet.
I'm voting against the Bill.

Today marks the third anniversary of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
What's happened since?
A record number of women have been prosecuted. Pregnancy loss is now considered extremely suspicious, even when it has nothing to do with abortion.
