#Jenrick 🤡🤡🤡

Wants to abolish #motability cars.

So, if you get full mobility #DLA/PLP, you can swap that for a car, worth about the same.

If he does that and nothing else he saves £0 and the claimant uses the money to lease a car anyway.

So presumably he wants to kill DLA/PLP altogether.

From the proposed changes to #PIP, through the cuts to the #motability scheme, to the new #SEND restrictions, via the "overdiagnosis" lie/rhetoric, this government's hatred of #disabled people has always been openly on display.

If you vote #Labour, you are telling us a lot about your own hatred.

Peter Facenna in a blue‑and‑white checked shirt against a wooden plank background. To the right, a large quotation reads: “It is also important to recognise that the WAV element of the Motability Scheme cannot operate in isolation. For these vehicles to be available, affordable and sustainable, the wider Motability car scheme must function effectively. One does not work without the other.” Beneath this, the text states: “Peter Facenna ~ Managing Director, Allied Vehicles Group”. The Allied Vehicles logo appears at the bottom right with blue and yellow elements.

Allied Vehicles Managing Director, Peter Facenna, shares his thoughts on the importance of the Motability Scheme at a time when public debate around it is increasingly shaped by headlines rather than understanding.

Motability - Motability is a scheme for disabled people in the UK to use their mobility allowance to pay for a car. But there are a few problems…

Picture shows a white car with a flat tyre. Attached to the tyre is a red tube connected to a white container containing what’s left of the repair glue. The white container is connected to a black electronic air pump. 
All over the ground, over the wheel and the visible surfaces of the car shows sighs of being sprayed with the repair liquid. 
The tyre is still flat.

Puncture repair kits instead of spare wheels?
Great in theory, in practice…. Not so much.
Mobile tyre call-out estimated time, two days!
Had lots to do over the next 48 hours, no it going anywhere now.

Looks a bit DWP. They're hiring more spies and training them how to drive in high speed chases. Cos that's what disabled people do in their PIP cars. #Motability

Motability cuts are a deeply cynical policy | Letter Letter: Disabled customers and their carers will lose out as suitable vehicles and tax reliefs are removed, says Colin Hughes

Proud to have a letter in The Guardian today, calling out the deeply cynical Motability cuts and what they mean for disabled people’s independence. These decisions shape real lives every day, and it’s important we keep speaking up.

What government Motability plans mean for disabled people - Bylines Scotland Planned restrictions on the Motability scheme will cost some people their jobs and see others trapped at home

"The changes follow the government’s attempts to enact sweeping cuts to disability benefits, which resulted in a public outcry. Although cuts did take place, with impacts which will become more severe over time, they did not end up going as far as the government wanted."

"Many disabled people need adaptations made to cars before they can use them – anything from adjusting the controls to work around limb impairments, to removing the driving seat so that a wheelchair can fit into that space. They need to pay for these themselves."
