Over 80 Labour MPs are rebelling against Sir Keir Starmer’s welfare reform plans, warning of catastrophic impacts on carers and disabled people. Our research exposes the cruel imbalance between political privilege and public poverty, calling for inclusive employment reforms and fair pay for carers.
As the editor of Disabled Entrepreneur UK, Renata aligns her vision with the Gates Foundation’s mission to combat poverty, eliminate disease, and protect the most vulnerable – calling for equitable change both globally and within the UK.
Poverty is not a natural disaster. It’s man-made. It is created by policies, political agendas, and the failure of those in power to prioritize humanity over spreadsheets. As the cost of living rises and support dwindles, the UK risks becoming a country where survival itself is a luxury. The government may not see the starving children or the evicted tenants, but the public does, the communities do and we do.
“One of the most overlooked aspects of disability assessments like PIP is the failure to fairly account for fluctuating conditions. Many individuals live with illnesses that vary from day to day — such as Multiple Sclerosis (MS), ME/CFS, fibromyalgia, or certain mental health conditions. These are not linear or predictable, and yet the current system often assumes a static level of ability. This creates a harmful narrative that if someone can perform a task once, they can always do it — which is simply not the case. A more compassionate and realistic approach would recognise how the severity of symptoms can fluctuate, affecting daily living and mobility in deeply inconsistent and exhausting ways.”
Legislative reform, greater awareness, and challenging unethical practices must be part of the solution. Until then, many people will continue signing contracts not because they agree — but because they’re too afraid not to.
The UK government’s approach to disability rights, mental health legislation, and human rights law is cause for serious concern. These policies, when combined, could lead to a society where disabled individuals are stripped of their autonomy, denied financial support, and placed under state control. If we do not act now, we risk allowing history to repeat itself. The rights of disabled people must not be sacrificed in the name of cost-cutting measures. It is time to push back against policies that prioritize financial savings over human dignity.

It is not only the most vulnerable and disabled individuals who are being forced into poverty, but now, children are also bearing the brunt of the government’s actions. While families struggle to make ends meet and children face the harsh reality of hunger, those in power continue to line their own pockets with pay raises.
Universal Credit does not automatically entitle disabled claimants to a council tax discount, so it is crucial to contact your local authority to ensure you are receiving the correct support. If you receive an unexpected bill, act quickly to challenge it and apply for the discounts you are entitled to. Taking proactive steps can prevent unnecessary financial hardship and ensure you are not overpaying for council tax.
