Congratulations @AngelaRayner on your appointment as Deputy Prime Minister.
It's always great to see public figures role-modelling inclusion, and we've loved seeing Angela's posts sharing her sign language skills.
Here's a throwback to her Sign Language Week post this year. ⬇️
Really important to be at Westminster today, @RNID together with our friends at @BDA_Deaf, to demand that every BSL user is included in today's historic announcements. We hope that when @Keir_Starmer addresses the nation as our new PM, he will have a BSL interpreter by his side
Let this be the last time British Sign Language (BSL) users are left behind – we call on all candidates to make this the most accessible #GeneralElection ever.

In @RNID's research, one woman summed it up: "when you say it doesn't matter, it makes me feel like I don't matter". It's unacceptable for millions of people to be dismissed like this. Please read our report, watch our stories and join us saying It DOES Matter.
