@kingqueen3065 @safc4ever @Vitam_Diligere This part right here is both great and infuriating.

The fact that disabled people even have a need of basically wearing a body cam to force people/companies to comply with existing legislation.

Thanks ⁦@octaviaspencer⁩ for speaking up! People with disabilities should be playing roles instead of fake disability actors. #accessibility #disability https://t.co/O9QEKbLoQO

Today marks the 30th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act – and this Reform Jewish wheelchair user and self-advocate issues a challenge to Reform synagogues to become fully accessible. https://t.co/YTubBtBkXs

After Pearl Harbor, 80% of Americans listened to FDR's "infamy speech" by radio.

But people at home did not know that he was gripping the podium to avoid falling down.

Today we need to talk about something we rarely mention: America's disabled president. #ADA30 History thread:

I thought I would share how I, as someone who is visually impaired use my iPhone.☺️

Or, don’t give contracts to all your cronies and save the NHS £billions, just a thought, like.

[JELLY HEAD @LordOrk]

This is exactly why wheelchair users and visually impaired people dread rental E-scooters being legalised.

Sadly some people will illegally use and dump them on pavements and it’s essential local authorities have power to ban them if they are a persistent problem.

This is one of those stories you work on as a journalist that you can’t believe is true.

But it is.

Sex offenders are legally changing their names online in a matter of minutes which is allowing them to avoid detection and reoffend again and again. https://t.co/717SzVRbE0

Class War: Lives not worth saving because £70bn Covid-19 economic impact is greater than the value of life saved, says former Bank of England official.
Most deaths are amongst the low-paid. Neoliberals don't care.
What next - concentration camps?

Few in the media were as negative about Trump as I was, or as pessimistic about the future, in Jan 2017 but even I didn’t predict 5 straight days of 1,000 people dead a day, & the president playing golf on that 5th day while smiling for a photo from the course. Truly astonishing.

Why do we have to put up with this Serco, Deloitte, Lighthouse Lab, McKinsey nonsense which has messed up the creation of a Find Test Trace Isolate Support public health shield? Just move resources to regional Health Protection Teams, local authority public health + GPs. Period.
