Today's DPAC action was reported by ITV who followed Joy Dove, mum of Jodey Whiting who took her own life after her benefits were cut in 2017. Joy's story features in #TheDepartment which we tried to deliver to MP's today.

Let's talk about duty.
Disabled people do not have a duty to work unsuitable jobs. Let's get that clear.
The government *does* have a duty to not dehumanise the million disabled people who want to work but are denied the chance.
It’s a duty the government is failing on 🧵 1/7
ALT Headline from the Guardian: Disabled people must work from home to do 'their duty', says UK minister. People with mobility and mental health problems should work from home or lose benefits under new policy.

Boris Johnson should have had a better grasp of Covid rules and guidance than anyone else in the country. That was literally his job. He's such a monumental fraud and failure that even this simple fact has drowned in an ocean of lies and bloviation. And still the sycophants mewl.

This is what right-wing demagogues have done through history.
When a country is in the grip of social crisis - when a society is unable to meet the basic needs of its citizens - they try to redirect our fury on to desperate people fleeing foreign lands.

NEW: income inequality in US & UK is so wide that while the richest are very well off, the poorest have a worse standard of living than the poorest in countries like Slovenia ft.com/content/ef265420-45e8…
Essentially, US & UK are poor societies with some very rich people.

OMG she’s only gone & done it 😱 @trussliz has put fossil fuel loving, deregulation-obsessed Jacob Rees Mogg in charge of both energy & climate crises -he is not a serious person & this is not a serious Government. Can only hope he wakes up in time to recognise scale of emergency
