London, UK. 7th March 2017. A woman in a wheelchair holds a poster with pictures of diabetic ex-soldier David Clapson who starved to death after benefit sanctions in front of protesters holding a banner '#ToryCutsKill' as campaigners from Disabled People Against Cuts and Mental Health Resistance Network prepare to march around Parliament Square against the long series of cuts inflicted on the disabled by the DWP. The latest cuts in Personal Independence Payments (PIP) will lead to the ineligibility of a further 160,000 disabled claimants, mainly with mental health conditions. DPAC claim disability tests for ESA or PIP are used simply to save £ billion on benefits rather than meet the needs of the disabled, many of whom has lost essential mobility cars and other support while the government has added over £550 billion to the national debt and are prepared to spend £200 billion on Trident.
