Don't cut vital support for disabled people in Plymouth Sutton & Devonport
Oppose the planned cuts to Personal Independence Payments.
The reason. One the economy, government ministers continually tell us that their economic policies have made this one of the richest countries in the world. If this is true, then surely the moral duty of any government is to protect the weakest in society. If they don't do this and continue to impose cuts on the sick and disabled, then they are either lying about the state of the economy or have no moral right to remain in power.

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.
