Kathy Mohan, who has suffered from benefit cuts, was thrust into the political limelight on Monday, when she confronted the prime minister during a visit to Abingdon, in Oxfordshire.

“Do you know what I want? I want my disability living allowance to come back ... I can’t live on £100 a month. They just took it all away from me,” she told Theresa May.

Today, in an interview with the Guardian, she says:



I wanted to have my say. I just came out with it. I said I have learning disabilities and I want to stick up for other people. I’ve seen what people are going through, I know that people are killing themselves.... It’s like I’ve got no life, I feel lost. I can’t go anywhere. I’ve got no money. I’ve used the food bank, I’ve never done that before in my life.
