I humbly apologise but what the hell?! Even for the Tories this is beyond ridiculous and nobody with more than 2 thirds of a brain would ratify it! (I hope)
All because SOME disabled people abuse the system! Smfh.
As a disabled adult myself, I've lived with/met more disabled people than I can count who could literally no more work than I could put on a cosplay cape/wings and fly South for the Winter.
Thoughts?

honestly this seems horrendous :<
you can't buy everything you need with "vouchers", sometimes you need money and there's no way around that...

True, but all the Tories care about is appeasing the far right rhetoric that ALL disabled people are "workshy slaves to the benefit system", even though like I said this morning, there's MILLIONS of severely disabled people who are mentally AND physically incapable of working.
