Petition

Don’t penalise disabled people for their disabilities or unable to work

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Help disabled people more financially and more effectively than those who are able to work and don’t want to work
Disabled people deserve better treatment than those who can work. Disabled people don’t deserve to be penalised for their disabilities because they don’t have a choice to be disabled. Financially they need more than vouchers because vouchers don’t pay their bills or medication
