@LBC This is why people are tired of Labour!! We are tired of divisive politics and scapegoating disabled people. Shame on !! You should not have the honour of using the title minister. Resign now!!
When you share a journey with autism you get a double whammy of invisibility & Prejudice.

If in your opinion the person with special assistance at the airport is not disabled please remember.

What the Artemis II astronauts did over the last 10 days was a testament to their bravery. And the fact that they traveled farther from Earth than anyone ever has, re-entered our atmosphere at more than 24,000 mph, and splashed down safely was a testament to human ingenuity. Thanks to everyone at @NASA for making this mission possible, and for taking us along for the ride.

LCWRA is the benefit for people who are considered too ill or disabled to be expected to work.
From Monday, new claimants will get about 50% less money.
Same illness. Same disability. Half the support.

Michelle and I were deeply saddened to hear about the passing of a true giant, the Reverend Jesse Jackson. We will always be grateful for Jesse's lifetime of service, and the friendship our families share. We stood on his shoulders.

Today I was told reasonable adjustments are unfair on non disabled staff.

Apparently, disabled folks get free passes & better treatment.
I despair- because they have seen the impact disability has!
