It’s time for Starmer to quicken the pace on green jobs and green growth. To push harder for the cleaner air, cheaper energy and healthier lives that we all deserve.

FYI
PIP assessors deliberately lie on initial assessment reports, it’s a sick ploy to force people to appeal and they know that a certain percentage will drop out so they can save a bit of money.
The appeal rate should not be higher than the initial acceptance rate.

The “overdiagnosis” bandwagon is a right-wing dogwhistle.
It’s done so they can deny people support… not because they actually care about our health.

Because being disabled costs a lot more.
