@Chookdog76@BethAmoureux@nogulagsagain That would be most Australians preference who don’t live with a disability or know a person directly who has a disability. Like really why does a person with a disability really need to take up space any oxygen in a national park. It’s just rude
@criprights@SusansOpine@DavidPocock spin of the alp on this reform is really the only winner here.the media are vastly complicit in convincing the uninformed that the focus of the reform should be on moving people off ndis and stopping particpants exercising choice and control because pwda can’t be trusted
@GuardianAus The Disability Community have become the expendable characters in the hunger games that we will be forced to compete and the sick calculation many wont survive this and drop off the system #auspol#NDIS#pwda@SenatorJordon
What a difference 12 months makes. Pleased to see inclusion and hassle free access is now part of the experience for assistance animals at this Sunshine Coast venue. @CouncilSCC
@nopayretail@KelpieUnicorns @billshortenmp @abcnews@EveryAustralian@GuardianAus@SenatorJordon@MichaelSukkarMP@AlboMP @JacquiLambieTAS Wastage facts. 48,000 paid to Latrobe uni to redefine what an assistance animal is even though Australia has laws in place that do this 100s of people with assistance animals being denied 3000 a year maint and upkeep packages and given 30000 a year human supports instead .
@criprights Excellent point , people just stop demonising pwda for one moment and have a look at practical expenses people used funding for compared to the agency providers set pricing limits the Inconvenient truth is more control over funding actually saves money long term
@Graemeinnes You could fill the media with an article like this several times a day. One of most common and widespread acts of Disability discrimination in this Country is Assistance Animals . It has been incredible to witness how indifferent society still is in 2024 @MarkDreyfusKCMP
@criprights hmmm where is Australia in the Human Rights rankings. It seems all governments in Australia are happy if we are moving in a direction that won’t have us even in the top 100 at its current rate of decisions and complicity in the increase abuse of the easy targets
The Look when you discover a Business in QLD that won an award for being the most "Accessible" in the state , Has policies that rival 'apartheid South Africa" towards Assistance Animals @WhitsundaysQLD#DisabilityRights#discrimination
@Padlea3 @9NewsQueensland@claretodhunter Fair call. I’d say the issue is they are claiming the expenses to raise so many kids is so high they can’t afford 5 bedrooms and think they can live in a 3 bedroom and in social housing as it’s cheaper then private. . And it seems dept housing wont support unsuitable living cond
@inclusionoz@AmandaRishworth Ahhh I was trying to work out why this org is seemingly one of the very few fully and enthusiastically supporting the ndis reforms bill in full . I hope others in the disability community wake up and see how money has compromised these large orgs to value PWD above profits
@StevenJMiles@BetootaAdvocate I’m liking this new PR strategy , chasing liberal national votes due to abandoning people with disabilities and running a government that’s totally disingenuous and disinterested in accessibility and equal rights for assistance animal users. Gotta find a new base this election
Hopefully @LNPQLD@DavidCrisafulli govt will allow media to report on discrimination that is rampant against the disability community. Under the current govt there appears a blanket ban on exposing the qld govt when these cases are brought to the media such as @7NewsSC@9NewsQueensland@theprojecttv
In fairness our revered leader has had another amazing 💡idea . Molly is to undergo further training to seek out the location of the @MichaelHealyMP who is an extremely hard man to find and question about the abuse of assistance animal travellers in Qld by operators @LNPQLD@JPLangbroek
@LanceMcCallumMP Lance considering the govt has no proper vision or supports for people with disabilities wanting to be in small business how about we just temper our excitement over what an amazing achievement this is. Also maybe educate business in qld to stop discrimination against PWD
@drhdickinson@ConversationEDU Hard to keep it when the current minister allows a false narrative that every participant goes on cruises and peoples supports are not subject to any form proof or medical reporting
