Court hears disabled activist’s challenge to ‘cataclysmic’ cuts to out-of-work disability benefits The high court in London has this week heard a legal challenge that aims to expose how the last Conservative government used a “sham consultation” to try to push through “cataclysmic” cuts to disab…

Adam Gabsi, Chair of Inclusion London, said the proposed changes to the WCA send “a dangerous message that the government is willing to ignore the lived realities of disabled people in favour of reducing costs.”

A book is held up against the background of people milling about at the Conservative conference. At the top of the cover it says 'restricted - policy' but this is scribbled out. Then the title: ‘The Department: How a Violent Government Bureaucracy Killed Hundreds and Hid the Evidence’. The front cover looks like a memo that has been torn into three parts, scrunched up and pieced back together.

Back from covering the #Conservative conference in Birmingham. The stories of some of those who died due to the actions of #DWP and successive Tory governments are told in my book. I hope some of those responsible will read it.

A book, sitting against a plain background. At the top it says 'restricted - policy' but this is scribbled out. The title: ‘The Department: How a Violent Government Bureaucracy Killed Hundreds and Hid the Evidence’. It looks like a memo torn into 3 parts, scrunched up and pieced back together.

It's 1 month since #TheDepartment was published. I'm excited to say that @PlutoPress has already had to order a reprint as the sales have been so strong, while @Waterstones has ordered more copies thanks to high demand.
Thanks for all your support so far.

Disabled people stage SIT-IN at parliament as security BLOCK delivery of DWP exposé 'The Department' Cops and security moved in as disabled people tried to deliver a book about the DWP called 'The Department' to MPs

What a way to start the first day in Parliament - cancelling disabled people organisation's pre-arranged meeting in MPs in Parliament, denying them entry & threatening them - all while competing in platitudes about the #Paralympics
