This is an International Medical & Human Rights Scandal - The International Medical Community - @EPinIreland & @WHO Should be Notified of Ireland’s Shameful Mistreatment of #Disabled Children - Demand Action from All Candidates Who Canvass at Your Door

[Gareth Noble @GarNob]

Until parties ‘get and understand’ the needs of carers and disabled people they can all expect to face huge mistrust.
These poll numbers reflect the largest rejection of any referendum ever when carers and their needs were being sidelined by them all.

[Finian McGrath @Finian_McGrath]

Its now time for all disability groups to unite around Senator @TomClonan #Disability rights based approach on legislation and work together.

Sign up & learn about Down Syndrome Associated Arthritis on WDSD 21/03. It is so common, it affects 1 in 50 people with DS. We need all families & medics to be aware @ICGPnews

As weak an argument as you can get for Yes vote on care. Wording does not enshrine any rights nor does it commit the state to anything. What percentage of carers are living on the poverty line?This is from a Gov and party which shafted thousands of women in mother and baby homes

[Dr Vivian Rath @RathVivian]

I’m Voting NO on Care Referendum. See informative🧵 @eilionoirflynn.
I am utterly disappointed at how the Voice of disabled people has been excluded during this debate.I refuse to be treated like a 2nd class citizen.

This is an invaluable thread on the issues at stake in relation to Article 42B (40th Amendment, green ballot paper) from an internationally recognised expert on disability law, Professor Eilionóir Flynn of @CDLPGalway - Centre for Disability Law & Policy, University of Galway

[Gareth Noble @GarNob]

I’m so grateful to @AsIAmIreland and @InclusionIre for their work in highlighting the serious human rights breaches arising out of unaccountable use of restraint and isolation. These are very important children’s rights issues.
