But a vehicle has to at least be fucking practical, there has to be space for my chair and all the stuff we need to take with us when we go out, also, are we not allowed to ever spend a night away from home requiring a suitcase? because you couldn't fit one of them in there.
PIP isnt there to fund your lifestyle.

Your party gutted defence & the NHS. You want war, it's a good excuse to pass sweeping Bills, you might believe you can trade for oil supplies, but the country doesn't want to fight your wars
A powerful intervention from the head of the Army. Something is coming, and government needs to wake up. He says the public will have to make sacrifices so we can prioritise defence and security. This is no time for β€œnational security can’t come at the expense of social security”. Hard choices are coming whether ministers like it or not. I have been clear where I would start: cut welfare spending and put the money into defence.

Labour are really showing themselves up. They're comparing those of us demanding an end to the genocide with Reform and Tommy Robinson. Keir Starmer may have gone - but his politics and our Governments commitment to arms licences very much remain. πŸ‘‡πŸ½
β€œWe have to call out bad behaviour wherever it exists.” @Len_Duvall challenges the Greens’ β€˜Zionism is racism’ motion, Reform’s attack on Sagal Abdi-Wali and Susan Hall speaking at a rally with Tommy Robinson, while acknowledging where Labour’s has faced up to its failures too.

This is wild! Sarah Helm is married to Jonathan Powell. As in - Britain's National Security Adviser. And she's come out in support of Palestine Action! 🀯🀯🀯
God help us authors who support Palestine and Palestine Action. Sounds like Adam would have all our books swept off the shelves in a jiffy.

An incredible speech. The Jewish leader of Lambeth council denounces Labour’s weaponisation of antisemitism. Conflating the evil of antisemitism with opposing Israel’s crimes has to stop
Martin Abram's speech to full council last night about his experiences as a Jewish man facing antisemitism, the dangers of turning antisemitism into a political football, and our drive to make Lambeth a borough of sanctuary and solidarity for all – no hatred used to divide us!

PUBLIC STATEMENT for the @NHS and @UKLabour: From today, as a woman born trans, if I need to go into hospital and have the capacity to speak, I will refuse. Even if it is life threatening and results in my death. Treating women born trans this way is disgusting and unacceptable. It is ignorance and bigotry - humiliating and dangerous. #BookmarkIndiaWilloughbyHospital @andyburnham @YvetteCooperMP @BBCNews @GoodLawProject

Literally the definition of racism, per the federal government. The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) classifies the phrase "go back to where you came from" as a form of potentially unlawful national origin or race-based harassment under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

I’m taking the unusual step to share an example of the hatred dished out to me every time I appear in the local press in light of @InclusionLondon new campaign. Disability Rights activists have our credibility undermined deliberately & newspapers are complicit 🧡

So the NHS is going to put a fully transitioned trans person on a ward for the opposite gender? This is threatening the lives of trans people. Who will avoid health care rather than face humiliation. For shame @UKLabour
