"Due to raised awareness around neurodiversity, it’s now common practice to be asked if we need any ‘workplace adjustments’ during onboarding, but what about the interview itself?"

Jon is autistic and wanted to share his take on the barriers neurodivergent adults face while job hunting and getting a job interview.

"Before we even arrive at the interview, we’re faced with the issue of clothing, and dressing ‘smart’ to suitably impress our prospective employers and secure the job. This can make the process difficult for neurodivergent people for a variety of reasons."

This is Labour’s poll tax. Its tuition fees. It is - as Iraq was for Blair - the moral stain that will mark Starmer’s government and the party for years to come. Severely disabled people are going to be starved, isolated and degraded. No Labour MP who backs this will be forgiven.

Thanks to @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social for mentioning my work in his piece about Labour’s disability benefits cuts. The narrative that disabled people are “a cost” on the rest of society is pernicious and becoming more and more engrained. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

You’ll hear “the disability benefits bill is soaring” a lot today but remember. Public spending on pensioner entitlements has risen from 5.3% of GDP to 6% over the last 20 years, whilst the working-age benefits bill has remained static. Consider why one of these is controversial.

Highly paid FT editors advise UK govt to cut welfare spending; hurt the disabled, sick. poor, old.
Silence on redistribution of wealth; higher wages, reducing corporate welfare, ending tax perks of the rich,
It is class war and working class is losing it.

Staggering to hear Jo White, MP for Bassetlaw, say people are out of work because their "aspirations are so low". Most people not in the "productive economy" are disabled, chronically ill, or they're carers. Good luck picking up those care, needs, Government, if you want all the carers back at work

All Labour MPs have reportedly been called in to Downing Street for talks with Starmer about the expected disability benefits cuts.
If you have a Labour MP, this is the time to email them. Tell them your objections. Tell them your experience.
