Rejected petition Stop Cruel Disability Benefit Cuts in the Welfare Reform Green Paper

Stop the 4-point PIP rule cutting support for complex conditions. Protect Contribution-Based ESA and medically retired people. Scrap time limits on lifelong illness. Ensure full scrutiny of these damaging disability reforms.

More details

These reforms risk:
• Forcing disabled and medically retired people into poverty
• Removing support for lifelong, progressive conditions
• Handing more power to a broken PIP system
• Punishing those who paid in but got sick

Disabled people deserve protection, not cuts disguised as reform.
