Wide gap between government rhetoric on disability and the reality, says TUC

There is a huge gap in the rhetoric the government uses on disability and the reality of how its policies impact on opportunities for disabled people, says the TUC today (Thursday). In its submission to the Office for Disability Issues (ODI) consultation on its three-year strategy on disability, the TUC argues that for disabled people who are able to work, paid, decent, secure and safe employment is the best route out of poverty and is an important step towards social inclusion.
