Listening to Mary Warnock on @BBCRadio4 Language from the 1960s is interesting. Because of her work, and my dad threatening the LEA, I got to go to mainstream school

Late to coverage of inquest into Joe Ulleri. This via @IsoMullarkey is only too common it seems where health care needs of people with learning disabilities are concerned

Fantastic film premiere & research report about the challenges people with learning disabilities face in getting on TV, and the need for more inclusion & representation.

I never met this man, but have immense gratitude for what he did. The emancipatory interpretation in the Social Model had a revolutionary impact on my life, and so many others. What an amazing guy - the world is poorer for hire loss.

I just heard the very sad news about Mike Oliver's death. He was always the big thinker, and we owe him the whole discipline of Disability Studies. We will be talking about his ideas and his influence for years to come, @JDisSoc @WECILBristol @davidabbottbris @carolinejmiles
