Please be a disability ally and don't park on pavements. I'm trying to build my confidence & mobility going out on a scooter and it's dangerous when pavements are blocked and I have to go out on the road at a busy junction 😢

NEW BLOG: Do people really care about lying to parliament? Yes, they do

Today @CIVICUSMonitor has downgraded UK civic space to ‘obstructed’, meaning rights to freedom of expression, assembly and association are continually violated. A strong indictment of a historically stable democracy #PeoplePower

I didn’t decide that poster front treatment was the least that Betty deserves. The team didn’t make that decision. Betty did. Her achievements, contributions, endeavours and energy decided that.
