If anyone wants to truly understand what the benefits system is like in this country, I recommend watching ‘I, Daniel Blake’. It’s available in full here: dai.ly/x8jhefw. Don’t bother with #Dispatches.

Last night’s @C4Dispatches programme was bitterly disappointing 📺
This was a chance to challenge the negative rhetoric on disability benefits. But instead, it felt like another hit job on ill and disabled people 🧵

The hardest work l've ever done wasn't paid.
It was staying alive when I was at my lowest.
It was caring for someone I loved.
It was surviving when survival felt impossible.
Work takes many forms.
