Are the govt going to pay employers?
Are the government prepared to pay employers to employ disabled people then?
Cause without incentive we won't get hired! Been looking for a paid job for three years and apply to over 120 a month and I've been with three organisations that help people into work and been to a reverse job fair and more! I have so many new qualifications cause I work for charities unpaid while I wait for paid work because I have to find £190 a month to cover my pain management medication costs cause nothing on the NHS helps and I've managed to reverse the kidney and liver damage over a decade of opioids caused me and never helped me. Just helped me suffer and be less of a burden on the NHS system.
Also whose gonna cover the hospital and social care costs that these cuts are going to inflate and incrue? We're supposed to be saving money not costing the country more with homelessness, mental health, chronic pain and the disabled suffering because they're no longer going to be able to afford their care or support which you deduct carers from UC as it is?
Costing us millions on health and social vare by doing these cuts.
Scope has confirmed 44% of those who are disabled already go without much needed support and care or medication, this will only increase now.
