Hate crime is a violation of human rights and a crime against the very values of equality, dignity, and respect. It tears communities apart and leaves victims in emotional ruins. Society must come together to condemn hate, strengthen the law, and support victims. Most importantly, we must remember that diversity is our strength, and no one should be made to feel unsafe for simply being who they are.
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.
The upcoming bill addressing Personal Independence Payment (PIP) reform and broader budget cuts could mark a turning point for millions of vulnerable citizens across the UK. If passed, it threatens to withdraw essential support from disabled individuals who rely on this benefit to maintain basic quality of life.
While ordinary citizens face austerity, rising living costs, and funding cuts, Members of Parliament continue to enjoy generous salaries, expenses, and perks, often without meaningful public oversight. Why do those in power operate by a different rulebook, and who holds them accountable?
Talking about your disability in the workplace can be daunting—but it’s also a powerful step toward ensuring you’re treated fairly and given the support you need. Whether you’re starting a new job, facing challenges in your current role, or navigating a return to work after time off, knowing how and when to disclose your disability is essential.
As outrage grows over a disabled woman being ignored by the Disability Minister, public attention turns to political ideologies like the Fabian Society—and whether the welfare state is being restructured under a cloak of cold reform.
People with complex disabilities deserve to be assessed by professionals with relevant expertise, not generalists working from tick-box criteria. In cases where medical consultants and hospital letters confirm a lifelong condition, that should be sufficient. This is more than just a benefits issue — it’s about human dignity, equality, and justice. And at Disabled Entrepreneur UK, we’ve got your back.
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.
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has come under intense scrutiny following a High Court ruling that deemed its consultation on proposed changes to disability benefits as “unlawful,” “misleading,” and “unfair.” The court found that the consultation process lacked transparency and failed to adequately consider the impact on disabled individuals.
Seropositive Rheumatoid Arthritis is a debilitating, systemic disease. Its symptoms go far beyond what the eye can see. Judging someone’s capacity based on fleeting abilities rather than lived experience is a disservice—not only to the person, but to the very purpose of disability support systems. Invisible conditions deserve visible recognition. And every person living with them deserves to be heard, supported, and believed.
