The chancellor announced the controversial Work capability Assessment is to be scrapped by 2026-27 in favour of a new test based largely on PIP – and it has raised many questions. Emma Tracey speaks to Disability Minister Tom Pursglove and BBC Social Affairs Correspondent Michael Buchanan to try and shine some light on the plans. Abby Cook is Blue Peter's first wheelchair-using presenter. We chat to her about her love of sport, her first assignment abseiling and what it's like to be on BP. A new documentary, Christine McGuinness: Unmasking My Autism, aired this week on BBC One. Carly Jones, who has had similar experiences, walks us through late diagnosis in women and girls, masking and the difficult subject of sexual abuse, all of which were explored by Christine. Presenter: Emma Tracey Producers: Keiligh Baker, Natasha Fernandes and Emma Tracey Assistant Editor: Keiligh Baker Editor: Damon Rose We're on Twitter @BBCAccessAll, on your smart speaker and we’re on Radio 5live.
