BREAKING: We're delighted that the DWP was ordered to hand over key documents to our client Ellen Clifford in an interim hearing last week. Clifford will be in court on 10/11 December to challenge a consultation that was a "smokescreen for cuts" to disability benefits. In the hearing, the DWP confirmed that they did NOT assess employment or disability impact before the consultation on #WorkCapabilityAssessment reforms. This supports our position that these reforms are a money-saving exercise & not a real attempt to support deaf & disabled people. Proposed reforms would affect more than 450,000 people and many would lose up to £416 a month. In last week's budget, the Chancellor promised to "deliver the savings" set out by the previous government when they proposed these reforms. We are now asking the Government to look beyond the savings to the real people who will be harmed and did not have a chance to speak out. Find out more in the Big Issue: https://lnkd.in/eDr74JNK
