Human catastrophe is having an effect on how disabled people are treated

The UN has said the Tory Government has committed a human catastrophe with their treatment of those with disabilities. Cuts to services and benefits, a welfare system geared to refusing help unless challanged repeately that has a culture of fear that causes harm to many just at the thought of having to engage with it. Those things don't help but add in the rhetoric that names us as scroungers, suggests that can't work is actually won't work and lie that those in need are being supported and you have a timebomb. 

The UN are concerned that treating people in this way will lead to people being seriously harmed by others. I am not, I am concerned that that is how we are treated and that said harm has already been done and continues. Tens of thousands have died, many many more injured and being an object of hate, hate incidents  and hate crime are  a fact of life to varying degrees, for many disabled people. Dsabled people now exist in a culture of fear for their safety and total dread at whatcpunitive action the Goverent will take next.

I don't want words met by complete disregard by our Government who agreed to only reflect on their actions. I want action to  protect and stop the regime of fears
