People deemed unable to work – including those with a history of self-harm or at risk of killing themselves – could have their benefits reduced and face penalties under new government plans.

I have personal experience with the government-funded “access to work” scheme. It was absolutely horrible. The people who run it could not give less of a shit helping people. It’s extremely dehumanising. They have no idea of the challenges imposed by disability. They do not listen when you say that your disability prevents you from doing something. I can’t imagine how horrible it would have to be to have to interact with those people.
