We call on @mariacaulfield and @Jeremy_Hunt to reconsider @DHSCgovuk’s response to @BaronessHollins’ report, ‘My Heart Breaks’ in the light of this judgement.

The kind of solitary confinement we hear about most certainly is ‘inhuman and degrading treatment.’

[Julie Newcombe @TwittleyJules]

FYI @keirstarmer. Where does @UKLabour stand on the abuse of autistic people and people with learning disabilities?

[Rightful Lives @RightfulLives]

As the rumours increase that the new Mental Health Bill will be scrapped by this government, @AQuinnUnbroken, @Dawn26467771 and @TwittleyJules discuss why it might actually have failed autistic people and people with learning disabilities.

The RRN has signed a letter asking politicians to take action to transform care for people with a #LearningDisability and autistic people. For too long, people’s rights have not been a priority and people continue to have their rights violated.
