Liverpool parade crash victim refused PIP despite life-changing injuries

Liverpool parade crash victim refused PIP despite life-changing injuries

Exclusive: Dan Eveson suffered broken bones and a torn muscle in the horror crash that injured more than 100 people – but assessors say he doesn’t meet the threshold for financial help

While this is a high-profile case, this is pretty emblematic of Conservative and Forced Labour policy. Labour have cut back even further on what constitutes a disability, when in reality many hundreds of thousands of people who should receive PIP do not.

If a state cannot provide comfortable lives for disabled people and, even worse, stigmatises them as scroungers, it is a failed state.
