Let’s get this Petition over the finish line—just 13k short of the 100,000 for a parliamentary debate: Retain legal right to assessment and support in education for children with SEND https://t.co/GiW1kxqSQM

More than 50 disabled people’s organisations have called on the equality watchdog to investigate the “urgent threat” to the equality and human rights of disabled people posed by the new Labour government.

@Keir_Starmer you say @UKLabour is the party of work, why then is it, that for the first time in 15 yrs I’m being forced out of a job I love because of a DWP decision made on your watch? I desperately want to concentrate on my job but I can only work with the right support 4/4

[Touretteshero @touretteshero]

I’m profoundly sad to say that as of today, I’ll no longer be able to do my job as co-artistic director of #Touretteshero because of a recent decision by #AccessToWork to cut my support by 61%. Read & share this post, the hardest I've had to write: https://t.co/4GA5gPaUp1 1/4

We are watching a genocide in real time. People are being deliberately starved to death as a matter of policy and Israeli political leaders are boasting about it.
So the least we can do is to stop sending arms to Israel and recognise a Palestinain state.

Please do have a read of my latest paper "Justice-Involved Children with Special Educational Needs and Disability: What Are the Implications for Access to Identification and Support Through an Education, Health and Care Plan?" https://t.co/FbtEtwo8sJ

It's almost two months since Israel cut off all supplies to the 2.3 million people of Gaza, and the World Food Programme says its food stocks have now run out.

Today, the UN agency delivered its last supplies to hot meal kitchens there, which are expected to run out of food in the coming days.

Oh my god. Donald Trump’s audio was caught on this video explaining that his billionaire friends made billions yesterday with tariffs and stock market manipulation. The SEC needs to investigate.

FOR THOSE WHO ASK… “Why does he set these tariffs only to roll them back a few days later? I mean, what’s the point?”

Here ends the lesson on Despot Economics.

Class dismissed.

I'm amazed this is not getting more coverage.

On Friday and over the weekend police officers raided the homes of around eight young people active in Youth Demand, a non-violent organisation which campaigns around climate change and Palestine.

This is in the wake of, and in addition to, the much publicised raid on a Youth Demand welcome meeting at a Quaker meeting house last Thursday night when 6 young women were arrested.

A number of these young people live with their parents, who describe receiving visits from 8 police officers who conducted highly intrusive searches of their homes.

The young people were arrested. A number were held overnight before being released on bail. Their electronic devices and other possessions have been seized.

This is an astonishing over reaction by the police.

Please publicise.

And if you need any sort of support or specialist equipment to do the job the current wait for Access To Work - the DWP scheme that provides the practical things working disabled people need to do their jobs, is around 10 months. Get a job tomorrow & start in almost a year!

[No More Exclusions #Free 🇵🇸 @NExclusions]

🧵The same system that excludes Black children from schools also criminalises them in the streets. Exclusions are policing.

Policing is punishment.
