Scrap disability benefit reforms

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Rethink plans for disability benefits which will penalise some of the most vulnerable in country.
The plan is seen as an attack on vulnerable disabled groups.
While there is need for disabled who can work to do so many disabled can only get through jobs through specialist employment agencies.
The way to resolve this better is social change addressing bias against disabled.
