Disabled People Against Cuts and Others Are Holding a Vigil At Lunchtime on July 30th At The Royal Courts Of Justice

Disabled People Against Cuts and others are holding a vigil at lunchtime on July 30th at the Royal Courts of Justice, WC2R 1 to support full compensation for the claimants and resist government moves to claw back what these Claimants have won.

The court case starts at 10.30, says Disabled People Against Cuts.

The DWP is forcing two disabled claimants (who won a legal challenge against losing benefit when they moved to a Universal Credit area), back to court. One is terminally ill, the other has mental distress. After the judgment in June, the DWP refused to settle out of court for what they suffered — from losing around £180 per month. This means they must give statements again, and despite winning the case, are still under attack, as the DWP has sought permission from the Court of Appeal to appeal against the judgment.
