Background
The United Kingdom has always taken great pride in being ahead of the curve in humanitarian issues, scientific knowledge, and providing opportunities for its citizens. Which is why the proposed changes to Personal Independence Payment are so shocking as for many, this payment covers the huge cost of living with a chronic physical or mental illness. Disabled people lose vast amounts of income each month for items such as prescription charges and lose wages to time off to manage their conditions.
