[chronically-chaotic-cryptid]

It's budget time in Ireland which means some eejit is inevitably going to talk about how giving disabled people and carers a €12/week raise is some fucking spending spree so here's your friendly reminder that disability benefit is and always has been below what the government determined to be the bare minimum amount you can live on.

Ireland is the worst country in the EU to be disabled. €12 a week is fuck all for us.
