The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (Ipsa) has announced plans to invite members of the public to deliberate on the salaries of Members of Parliament. In an attempt to increase transparency and trust following the 2010 expenses scandal, IPSA will be sending out 10,000 letters through a lottery system in the coming weeks.
Trussell Trust has issued a grave warning to the UK Government: if planned welfare reforms and budget cuts continue, an additional 340,000 people in households with a disabled member will be forced into hunger and hardship by 2030. For many of these families, it isn’t just a question of putting food on the table — it’s a question of survival.

To truly support vulnerable families, we must see poverty for what it is—a pervasive risk factor that influences every other domain of a child’s life. More than just economic deprivation, poverty reduces access to opportunity, stability, and wellbeing. Investing in early intervention, social work training, disability inclusion, and long-term support for care leavers and young carers is essential.

Intrusive thoughts are not always reflections of reality — they are often a distorted mirror shaped by trauma, fear, or self-doubt. While they may not vanish overnight, there are tools to weaken their grip. For Elena, simply validating her emotions, taking structured study breaks, and shifting her attention to writing articles about justice helped her reclaim peace.

Government Incentives to Support Employment and Entrepreneurship for Disabled Individuals and Those Lacking Experience. The UK government has long recognized the need to create a fair and inclusive job market. However, many businesses hesitate to employ individuals with disabilities or those with limited experience due to perceived risks or costs. To bridge this gap, several incentives could be introduced or expanded to encourage businesses to take on such employees.
