Hot Topic: PIP Cuts 2025 - What the Changes Mean for You
In this weeks Hot Topic, hosts Jordan James and Simon Scott discuss the alarming new proposals for Personal Independence Payment (PIP) in the UK, which could lead to 90% of current standard daily living awards failing on renewal.
Here's what we cover in this episode:
- We share personal experiences with the PIP application process, highlighting the struggles faced by those with disabilities, particularly neurodivergent individuals.
- What are the implications of these changes, the internalized ableism that many face when attempting the application process?
- We express our frustration over the system's failures and emphasize the importance of community unity in advocating for the rights of disabled individuals.
