As @mencap_charity have pointed out, the "assisted dying" bill poses a risk to people with learning disabilities, who could be easily led down a path that they don't want to go down.

Parents are understandably worried 👇

[Jess Asato MP @Jess4Lowestoft]

This Bill isn't safe.

[Katie @LuxMeaMundiAM]

I’ve asked Kim Leadbeater repeatedly why she held a vote in the committee stage to removing safeguards for non-terminal disabilities.
She conveniently never answered. They rushed through it so fast I bet they thought we weren’t paying attention.
Autism, diabetes, anorexia & downs

You’ve been lied to about Lindsay Clancy, she wasn’t some struggling mom, she was very privileged

“The 8 month old baby was born. The 3 and 5 year old were in daycare full-time. Patrick took a 12 week paternity leave, and they hired a nanny to help with the newborn baby. After the 12 week leave was over, Patrick could see that Lindsay needed more help and support, so he decided to move his office into home and started working from home.

So they decided they didn't need the nanny anymore because Patrick was gonna stay home, and you guys are saying that this woman had no support? That is false.

A key factor that you guys are missing of this whole entire thing, and you're letting this woman play on your emotions, she was a labor and delivery nurse herself. She was in this career path. Lindsay knew, she knew, if I tell my doctors that I am hearing voices and having thoughts of harming my children, they're going to be taken away from me. She knew that. She is smart, she's calculated, and this was premeditated.

Any woman going through actual psychosis, especially with the career path she was in, being very educated on this, she would have gone to her doctors and said, "I need them away from me because I think I'm gonna kill them." She didn't do that.

Why? Because she wanted the opportunity to kill her three kids. She Googled how to kill. She Googled how long it would take Patrick to go from the house to the restaurant. She murdered one child. Patrick called. She missed the call. She called back after killing one child and said, "We're good here. Everything's fine. We're fine."’

She also gives an excellent medicine breakdown on how there is no way she was actually in the state of mind she claims to be

“You guys are letting a very smart and calculated woman manipulate you and play on your emotions, and it's working, and a jury really might let her walk because… it's scary”

And now we have a mistrial….

The only correction here is the children were in preschool not daycare but either way they were not in the home and being attended to at preschool 3 and a half days a week. The callback after the first murder is speculation but she 100% did call Patrick back after he called her. Showing she was definitely not in some psychosis

Lindsay Clancy was very privileged. Her husband is estimated to make between $258,000-$482,000 per year based on his job and Glassdoor salaries

MPs who are found to have lied whilst in post should face severe consequences. Mobility cars are not free. There are strict rules for eligibility. You can't get "free cars" for ADHD or any other diagnosis. You can't get benefits based on a diagnosis. Your lies are outrageous.

NEXT FRIDAY the UK Parliament may vote to bypass the House of Lords and legalise state assisted suicide - euthanasia.

I know this has seemed urgent for months. But this really is the final hurdle. If you've ignored everything until now, don't ignore this.

Write to your MP below

[Dan Hitchens @ddhitchens]

Labour MP Dame Chi Onwurah, whose mother was a @dignityindying campaigner, always assumed she would vote for assisted dying. When she read the legislation she realised she couldn’t.

“This bill lacks the safeguards to deal with the reality that there are powerful economic and personal incentives for both the state and family members to encourage the vulnerable into taking their own lives.”

[Not Dead Yet UK @TheNotDeadYetUK]

Assisted suicide IS a disability issue.

Supporters say the assisted suicide Bill is about terminal illness, not disability. But the two overlap.

Every MP matters on 11 Sept. Ask yours to vote NO:

[Dr. Calum Miller @DrCalumMiller]

If euthanasia becomes legal in the UK, disabled people's lives will be first on the line.

We all know this.

Euthanasia is always eugenic in practice.

[Dawni Q 🎨 @Dawni_Q]

A little thread about what becoming #disabled can actually mean.

When my son suffered a brain injury and developed three tumours, he was 26

He didn’t just lose his health

He lost his job.
His income.
His rented home.
His credit rating.

Life unraveled for him.

For those who think Lindsay Clancy didn't confess:
She said she remembers taking her 3 yr old son, Dawson, down to the basement first. She said she disliked him the most. She asked her 5 yr child, a daughter named Cora, to watch her 8 month old baby brother, Callan, while she k'IIed Dawson. Then she took Cora down into the basement and eliminated her. Then she strangled Callan. She also recalled telling her children, "Go to God, baby."
Only Lindsay would know those specific facts. And that was a confession. The case was not just based on hearsay from her husband Patrick.

[Basil the Great @BasilTheGreat]

Labour Councillor Sean Coughlan was caught trying to meet up with someone who he believed was a 14 year old for sex

He was given zero prison time and an 18 month community order

This is why people don't have faith in our justice system

Paedo's shouldn't see the light of day

[The British Patriot @TheBritLad]

🚨EXPOSED: Everyone meet Ed Davey (@EdwardJDavey) — current Lib Dem leader. (British political party)

From 2010 to 2012 he was the minister in charge of the Post Office.

The Post Office’s computer system was faulty. It wrongly showed money missing from local branches. Hundreds of innocent people who ran those Post Offices were accused of stealing, lost their businesses, went to court, and went to prison.

Alan Bates, who fought for them, asked Davey for a meeting in 2010. Davey said no ..it “would serve no useful purpose.”

At least 13 people later took their own lives because of what happened. Davey now says Post Office bosses lied to him.

The people whose lives were ruined say he should have done more.

Years later Davey was paid hundreds of thousands of pounds as a consultant by the law firm that then fought the Post Office’s victims in court.

Please don’t repost this, he doesn’t want anyone to know.

Benefits aren’t left wing or right wing. Disability, illness, redundancy and caring responsibilities can happen to any of us, regardless of how we vote.

We can debate how the welfare system should work, but the people who need it should never be reduced to a political stereotype.

Welfare isn’t a political team sport. It’s a safety net.

Ah, so sadly we have our own Pelicot case. Where’s the outrage? 13 men drugged and raped a woman. Her husband abused her with other men for 20 years. No comment?

[Andy ICEBERG Ⓜ️🎗 @iceberg4w]

Never forget Michelle who was arrested after she spoke out about her horrific ordeal (raped and sexually assaulted in a hospital) that was covered up
She made the public aware of the THOUSANDS of RAPES and SEXUAL ASSAULTS taking place in NHS hospitals❗️

[Wheelie MS Advocate - #PoweredByExperience - ♿️ @WheelieFUMS]

We hear so much about getting young disabled people into work, but nowhere near enough about what happens when they actually get there.

New research from Scope found that 45% of disabled 18–34-year-olds who requested reasonable adjustments had those requests rejected or not implemented.

This isn't simply about whether young disabled people want to work.

It's about inaccessible workplaces, employer responsibilities and whether the support designed to help disabled people start and stay in work is actually there when they need it.

You cannot sanction your way through an inaccessible workplace.

“If disability costs too much, should I go to prison instead?”

Prison accommodation, food, heating, electricity and basic necessities: provided.
Average cost to the state: £56,618 a year.

Maximum PIP: £10,119 a year.

[Just Right Frank @justrightFrank]

A drug dealing Jamaican asylum seeker, living in the UK attacked a woman with a chisel during a burglary and was jailed for 30 months in 2005.
The Judge put him down for deportation.
When he was freed, Blair's Government forgot to deport him.
In 2007 the Home Office finally tried to deport him but he kept appealing and he was still here in 2015.
Then he broke down the door of Leighann Duffy.
He stabbed her 14 times IN FRONT OF HER 6 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER.
He even hit the child with a hammer when she tried to protect her mummy.
Leighann died 2 days later.
Most of you will not have heard of this victim or her murderer.
This Home Office failure cost Leighann Duffy her life.
But in the last 12 months the Home Office passed 200,000 asylum applications at the rate of one per minute.
I wonder how many mistakes they made in that lot?
Please take a minute to remember Leighann and her daughter.
