New paper out! We propose a novel dialogical method for qual interviews using audio-visual elicitation + mid-point member reflection. It sparked fresh insights for participants & researchers alike.

Bleakly embarrassing to see pundits praise the U.K. government for standing up to Israel. Tens of thousands of Palestinians have been murdered, children’s limbs ripped off. And government and media support let that happen. There should be no applause for finally noticing a genocide they helped arm.

A lot in today's health and disability #pathwaystowork Green Paper.
Might be helpful to see this in four areas:
1. Big savings (aka cuts) by removing PIP from some disabled people (those who never score 4+ on a single daily living descriptor). Number of losers unclear from today's materials.

after the weeks of speculation, it's disappointing to see what the government's welfare proposals amount to. The tightening of PIP criteria and increase in frequency of reassessments are particularly unhelpful

I know coverage of disability benefits can be very distressing. So, I’ve worked with colleagues to make a range of support visible on The Guardian’s site.
If you click on a relevant news story, you’ll see a “drop box” of signposted mental health help as well as benefits advice.
