Spartacus is a grass-roots movement that started with the publication of the Responsible Reform report which revealed overwhelming opposition to the UK Government’s proposed welfare reforms, in particular the proposal to reform Disability Living Allowance (DLA)

The Report was entirely researched and written by disabled people and based on a rigorous analysis of the 523 organisational responses to the Government’s consultation on reform of disability living allowance which closed in February 2011. The report also analysed the reasons behind the increase in recent years in the number of DLA claimants.

The website contains news, reports, publications and briefings, and can be discussed on the forum We are Spartacus
