Sadly this isn’t only affecting Dan. We are a group of over 4000 people who are all experiencing the same delays, cuts and silence from the @DWPgovuk Access to Work scheme - at a time that government say their key priority is to get more disabled people in work. #AccessToNowhere

Brilliant to see public transport be truly accessible and everything go right.

When you only have one benefit covering all means-tested situations, then yes, lots of people will be on that benefit. Can we have some intelligent MPs next time please? I mean these dumbfucks were entitled to a chance, but its getting tiresome.

Remember this 👇 Now settled out of court. Retrofitting to remove wire racks, lower cabinet handles & door treatments completed. Sometimes disabled people do win the David versus Goliath fights. But first you have to get in the fight for access to win it. ✊

A disabled man has chosen to stop taking life-saving medication because it is too hard to get health and social care This is the system we're introducing assisted suicide into. Are we ashamed yet? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Network Rail’s toxic culture of ‘access is not value for money’ rides again in Ashford, Kent. Accessible bridge approved, then NR decide on cheaper inaccessible alternative, rubber stamped by planners. An outrageous dismissal of the Equality Act 🧵@Heidi_Labour #TakingTheDis

When I said I used #PIP to pay for a cleaner, I received abuse. I was told to move house, to move into a group home, I even received death threats. Nothing disabled people do is ever "right".

"The day after the green paper, myself @leicesterliz and @stephenctimms had round tables with disabled people" The green paper stating "we will not be consulting on this issue" for all vital points?

"I wasn't particularly involved in that" Weren't involved in discussions, or didn't pay attention to the welfare bill so failed to spot the glaring problems with it? And great to hear you think a rise in minimum wage for your son balances out removing support for disabled ppl.

I'm so fucking angry & wrenched about this for so many reasons but I'm only going to say this: There's a lot we don't know about this, but even institutionalized living settings made for disabled people lack adequate & efficient emergency evacuation plans for disabled people.

No, it's not 'fine' to use the r-slur if you're autistic. 1) the history of the r-slurs is a LOT more complicated than that and has mostly hurt people with intellectual disabilities. 2) if you're using it as an insult then that's literally the opposite of reclaiming a slur.

Another "spread the word" and repost moment. Four weeks ago, I sent a Freedom of Information request to the DWP to determine which disabled organisations and charities they consulted about the proposed changes to eligibility rules for #PIP. Their reply this evening tells us that…

“You stopped us harming people with disabilities, so we’ll hurt children” is not a line that shows any learning from the debacle.

In the midst of an awful day, shout-out to the kind taxi driver who let me bring Luna in his taxi with me rather than her having to wait out in the baking heat after my brother's car broke down, and double shout-out that he did all that whilst being scared of dogs 🥹
