Don't cut vital support for disabled people in Hull East

Oppose the planned cuts to Personal Independence Payments

Why is this important?

George Osborne has announced plans to take £70 a week away from thousands of people with disabilities, by cutting Personal Independence Payments (PIP). For many of us, this will mean losing the crucial support which enables us to get out of the house.
Many people in our area would be hit hard by this cut. This petition calls on our local MP to do all they can to stop this cruel and unfair plan.

Please, show your support for local people with disabilities and help stop the cuts to PIP.

GOVERNMENT TO CONFIRM U-TURN ON CURBS TO PERSONAL INDEPENDENCE PAYMENT

The Government is to formally drop its cuts to disabled benefits after Iain Duncan Smith's dramatic resignation.

New Work and Pensions Secretary Stephen Crabb will tell the Commons in a statement that the curbs to the Personal Independence Payment (PIP) have been abandoned.

Prime Minister David Cameron is likely to be challenged over the situation when he addresses MPs about last week's Brussels summit on the migrant crisis.
