A charity said Rishi Sunak’s proposals feel like ‘a full-on assault on disabled people’.
Rishi Sunak has told of the “moral mission” to reform welfare as he announced major changes to the system in the face of criticism of his “hostile rhetoric” and accusations that the proposals are a “full-on assault on disabled people”.
Following the speech in London on Friday, the charity described proposals as feeling “like a full-on assault on disabled people” branding them “dangerous” and saying they risk leaving disabled people “destitute”. Other proposed changes include having so-called specialist work and health professionals charged with responsibility for issuing fit notes instead of GPs – in a bid to end the “sick note culture”.
“That’s more than our entire schools budget, more than our transport budget, more than our policing budget. He detailed plans for new legislation to prevent “fraudsters” from exploiting “the natural compassion and generosity of the British people”.
