Solidarity with IWGB Game Workers! Equity stands in solidarity with the IWGB Game Workers Union following reports of union-busting at Rockstar Games, the makers of Grand Theft Auto. This fight is our fight, as workers and representatives of video game performers. We are not going away.

Equity has raised concerns about the casting process for an upcoming production of The Hunchback of Notre Dame in Concert, which casts a non-disabled performer in the title role, Quasimodo, arguably one of the most recognisable characters with a disability. The union has been having positive engagement with Jack Maple Productions about this, highlighting the structural discrimination faced by disabled artists, ahead of the show’s opening at the Prince Edward Theatre in London this weekend. Read the full statement on our website: equity.org.uk/news/2025/cast…

It’s incomprehensible that three Labour MPs should be suspended for refusing to vote to make disabled people poorer. How did it come to this?

Kemi Badenoch has said she does not believe one in four people are disabled. I don’t believe Kemi Badenoch is a decent human being and capable politician. We’ve all got our views, Kemi!

There are many British commentators who have made several posts showing deep concern for Rachel Reeves over the last 24 hours but apparently misplaced their phones whilst hundreds of thousands of disabled people were terrified of losing the benefits they need to live.

The Government’s welfare reforms would breach international human rights law, says new expert legal opinion commissioned by Equity Time to drop this morally & economically indefensible bill that attacks the rights & living standards of disabled people equity.org.uk/news/2025/welf…

Time to drop the bill! Yesterday @stellacreasy quoted expert legal opinion commissioned by Equity to challenge the Government on their welfare reform bill - which would breach international human rights law   equity.org.uk/news/2025/welf…
The legal advice is clear the welfare reform bill - even amended - would breach our commitments to uphold international laws on disability discrimination. Today I asked the Government to commit to address this risk.

It’s now confirmed: the vote on disability cuts will be next week. So next Monday in Parliament, I’ll be presenting my petition for a Wealth Tax - not disability cuts. Over 70,000 have already signed! Let's get as many as possible. Add your name today: chng.it/ztV8MqDHVQ

One thing I have learnt from some years in politics, victory or defeat are rarely final. So you keep on fighting.
