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.

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.
If drastic budget cuts continue to hit low-income families and the disabled, Labour will stand no chance of re-election. Regardless of party, the agenda remains the same—to save money at any cost. MPs should be required to live on benefits for six months before deciding if they deserve their inflated salaries.
