London, UK. 18th April 2018. Paula Peters from DPAC congratulates the campaigners from DPAC (Disabled People Against Cuts), MHRN (Mental Health Resistance Network), Winvisible, Black Triangle and others who have block the road in protest against Universal Credit as the block draws to an end. They occupied the road at the corner of Parliament Square for over half an hour before ending their protest. They say the Universal Credit has so many flaws it must be scrapped and call it "an economic and political disaster bringing further distress and impoverishment to those forced to endure it", pointing out it has been particularly disastrous for disabled people. Among various problems which impact them, the removal of Severe and Enhanced Disability Premiums means single disabled people lose around £2,000 per year and a disabled couple over £4,000.
