This appears to have provoked a lot of anti-trans bigots, we will just block you, you're not even worth a mention.

🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨

We have responded to the Government's Schools White Paper consultation

"The reality of the proposals is no more than austerity and discrimination, wrapped up in the co-optation of inclusion and false claims of expanding rights."

When Paul Nowak became TUC general secretary, I called him a compromised melt who would stick by Starmer at the cost of everyone else. I was called anti-trade union, classist, stupid, etc. Nowak is now calling for PIP to be slashed to the bone.

Our allies @RITB_ have for some unknown reason been unable to tweet on X since Sunday, they may be able to RT but can't post or reply. Hopefully just a bug that is fixed soon @X and not some nefarious censorship.

The government should halt its cuts and reforms to Access to Work and commission new research to show exactly how important the scheme is to the disabled people who rely on it to stay working, according to a new report.

A disabled wheelchair user (update your language) in the UK might be confused by this given you call us 'parasites' exploiting Motability vehicles, we'd love to talk to this teacher and tell them the kind of person they are working for.

HERE is the spirit of Dubai in one act. My daughter has a severely disabled teacher who gives her extra lessons at weekends. He’s wheelchair bound. Today we expected him to cancel. Yet he’s taking a special vehicle across town to get to her. 😍 That’s how we are. 🇦🇪

Hi @campbellclaret - you’re listed as a supporter of @cleanupbritain on their website. Do you support their increasingly right wing agenda, including them campaigning to force people on Universal Credit to work for no pay?
