Nothing progressive about this Bill at all and the language of "progressive' around this is just totally inappropriate. But it starts another conversation that's too big to get into now, but this idea of progression for progression sake is damaging our society, or what's left of

If you use the word "retard" in any capacity, I don't care what side you're on, you're a fucking asshole. I knew better than to use that word in grade school. Grow the fuck up.

We’re not “costs to be cut.” We’re people. With lives, dreams, and dignity. The government’s plan to slash PIP will leave nearly a million of us worse off. That’s not reform. That’s abandonment. #DisabilityJustice

On the way to London for #AssistedDying vote today, so last tweet for a while. One final appeal to all MPs, if in doubt, please give vulnerable people the benefit of that doubt and vote #NO today

Diane Abbott Diane Abbott: “What could be more unjust than losing your life to poorly drafted legislation?”

Pictures from the #AssistedDyingBill protest outside Parliament, with the vote happening later today. We deserve support to live before they start debating the different ways for us to die!

Vicky Foxcroft, fresh from resigning as a whip over disability cuts, says the “absence of disabled people’s voices has been astonishing”

The most powerful and well connected are arguing for a bill tht most effects the most vulnerable and marginalised. This is first and last a class issue

If your central reason for supporting #AssistedDyingBill is your experience with your nan, you have no business being in parliament.

Not a single disabled people's organisation supports this bill. Not a single disability rights organisation supports this bill. Disabled people know this bill isn't safe.

Outstanding speech from Chi Onwurah 💙 opposing the #AssistedDyingBill. She sees the Bill for what it is - a fundamental threat to the human rights of disabled and older people, and a fundamental change to the whole principles and meaning of our NHS.

We are grateful to @VickyFoxcroft for taking a principled stand on disability benefit cuts. As shadow disability minister, she worked closely with Disabled People's Organisations + is an expert on how disability policy should work. Other MPs must listen closely to what she's said

John McDonnell says disabled people should be reassured as there will be a 'disability board' as part of the #assisteddyingbill. In Australia the ACT Disability Directed Advocacy Caucus have withdrawn from participation in the implementation of the VAD reforms. Why...because

Parliament just voted to allow assisted death. Very sad day for disabled people, especially learning disabled people.

Seeing this pass in the context of disabled people have their benefits stripped is terrifying.

Right now, being disabled in the UK is an avalanche of horror from every angle. Please step away if you need to. Please take care of yourself. There are enough of us to step into the gap whilst you rest. Looking after ourselves and each other is, in fact, resistance.

One thing I have learnt from some years in politics, victory or defeat are rarely final. So you keep on fighting.

« Un public plus large et des moyens dont le dimensionnement reste inconnu, une expérimentation sans bilan et dont les quelques éléments connus sont plutôt négatifs… » 🤡

Self-proclaimed leftists who treat disabled people like shit for fighting for inclusion— This is who you align with. And you’re somehow okay with this. Find the nearest mirror and examine yourselves because this shit is not okay.

They knew it wasn't safe, yet voted for it. Just like in France.
