Holy shit, the cuts are horrendous. Read the PDF 👀.

Cutting the most vulnerable people from all aid, and cutting others aid by around half, and freezing the amount for 5 years.

It's some DOGE logic, the way to fix government funding is to tax the rich. Cutting programs kills people, makes you a monster, and doesn't even achieve the stated goals.

Just take five minutes to read this. Labour’s new disability benefits Bill doesn’t just threaten support — it revives the logic of “chequebook euthanasia”. This is the same thinking Binding & Hoche used to justify Aktion T4 in 1930s Germany. The idea? That disabled people are just a cost. A burden. A line in a budget. Clause 5 brings that logic back to life — and back to law. Read the full analysis and share it before history repeats itself. #CutsKill #Labour #DisabilityRights #WelfareReform #PIP #UniversalCredit #AktionT4 #VoxPolitical #SocialJustice https://voxpoliticalonline.com/?p=98702
