Do you use a Motability vehicle, or have you in the past? Is your vehicle your only viable mode of transport? What does it give you the freedom to do that you couldn’t otherwise? And how would your life change without it? policy@transportforall.org.uk

The Labour Government say that they want to support disabled people into work but research by Transport for All shows that 37% of disabled people said that not being able to travel before 9:30am was a barrier to using their Bus Pass

"We are disabled 24 hours a day, we don't start at 9.30am and stop at 11pm, and neither should our bus pass" @TransportForAll

We totally agree with @EdwardJDavey and @LibDems who are effectively saying that no amount of "concessions" will make this government Bill acceptable. Cuts made, to the limited support Disabled people rely on, must be resisted now and in the future

Cutting PIP will do nothing to help people into work, when so many rely on this support to stay employed.
The truth is that these cuts will put disabled people out of work and into poverty
