#12015-10-21 18:11I have a terminal disease myself and I use facebook as a method by which to communicate with family and friends. If the DWP is using this as a way to stop people receiving their benefits they should be ashamed |

#22015-10-21 21:02The only reason to withdraw PIP should be if a person's doctor signs them off. |

#32015-10-21 23:21Because I am on DLA at the moment and will, at sometime, be getting moved to pip. I also use Facebook. |

#62015-10-25 17:53the thought that already isolated people may withdraw even more from society for fear of losing their support is just too sad to think of. |

#92015-10-25 18:10For many disabled people Facebook is the only contact they have with the outside world, it is disgusting that PIP was removed because a claimant used the site. |

#102015-10-25 18:35Facebook helps you stay in touch with people without the added anxiety of actually seeing people. |

#142015-10-25 19:17It's just another excuse to withdraw support for the vulnerable. It also shows the lack of understanding into our day to day lives, as too how important and useful social media is too people who are either almost or are house bound and have no other way too make contact with people. total disgrace! |
Guest |
#152015-10-25 19:20I am on DLA and still to transfer over to PIP. This terrifies me. Being mostly housebound, Facebook and similar are often my only contact with the world outside my own four walls for weeks/months on end... |

#162015-10-25 19:38Our government is getting ever more discriminatory against disabled people! |
Guest |

Guest |

#192015-10-25 20:31By withdrawing access to modern prosthetics this government isolate us Amputees from Employment and Educations, by withdrawing the ILF they isolate us from social care, by withdrawing social care they doom us to a life of neglect, by withdrawing Welfare Benefits they isolate us from society? They now instil fear of loss of even further Disability Allowances which help pay for the extra cost of Disability by isolating us from communication with Support and Help groups on Social Media and firmly place us hidden away from society behind the closed front door watching the world go by through a window pane of glass. Remember the poem "First they came for me" its appropriate to be quoted here: Please sign the Petition: you can do so anonymously, if you wish? |

#202015-10-25 20:32For some people with disabilities facebook may be the only social interaction they have. Many people with disabilities live socially isolated lives and for those with mental health problems it may be their only window on the world. To say that any person who accesses facebook cannot be disability is discriminatory, I'll - informed, cruel, criminal and punitive. Is this the level to which this country has sunk and what the British public really wants? It smacks of eugenics. |

#222015-10-25 20:43my mother had c.o.p.d , 3 prolapsed discs in her back couldn't walk more the 10 ft without being short of breath and in agony, also she couldn't sit still for more than 5 mins before her back became unbearable and her legs would start to spasm meaning she was literally frozen from the waist down! there was noway on this planet she could hold a job down but that did not mean she couldn't hold her phone/ iPad to contact me directly on Facebook? this is ridiculous |

#232015-10-25 20:46There is NO justification for the withdrawal of vital lifeline funds for the disabled but this one is particularly vile and sickening |

#242015-10-25 21:16Due to my illness, facebook is often my only way to keep in contact with close friends and family. I do find it tiring, but I can pop on and off as I feel able. I can see how friends and family are keep tract of events in their lives. I would much rather do this in person, but that is not often possible. |
