Through tort law, individuals and organisations, councils included, can be sued for damages provided there’s evidence of negligence or intentional wrongdoing. Compensation is available and varies depending on the severity of harm and supporting evidence.
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.

The DWP’s decision to send work coaches into mental health hospitals to push vulnerable patients off benefits and into work is a deeply concerning practice. It violates basic human rights, risks further harm to those in mental distress and may breach UK law. There must be immediate scrutiny of this policy, and the government needs to reconsider how it supports, rather than coerces, those with severe mental health conditions. Failing to act could not only worsen the mental health crisis in the UK but also invite serious international condemnation.
