A woman won a High Vourt victory in December which now forces reassessment of 1.6m PIP disability benefit claims. The Judge ruled the PIP assessment criteria are “blatantly discriminatory vs people with mental health impairments”.

And well done WinVisible, DPAC, WISH and other disability organisations for calling that protest https://www.mirror.co.uk/…/tory-government-reconsider-16mil… …; http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-42862904
