Disabled people can’t “just stay home” from the hospital. We will literally die without medical care, yet we can’t access it safely because there’s no masking or clean air. This is eugenics. People are dying of hospital acquired Covid. They’re dying due to inaccessible care.

Brian Allen I was just waiting for this. This is how it started in Nazi Germany too. It didn’t begin with camps. It began with speeches. With the claim that “some citizens don’t really belong.” That some people were enemies of the state. That dissent was dangerous. That loyalty had to be

There are many British commentators who have made several posts showing deep concern for Rachel Reeves over the last 24 hours but apparently misplaced their phones whilst hundreds of thousands of disabled people were terrified of losing the benefits they need to live.

Your regular reminder: no major mental illness—schizophrenia, bipolar, schizoaffective, cPTSD, personality disorder, severe anxiety—is constant, disqualifying us from the new ‘severe condition’ criteria. Please, please write to your MP askign them to vote 'no'. #TakingThePIP

Retweet if The Labour Party have worsened your physical and mental illness symptoms. This farcical discriminatory UN-ignoring bill needs to be binned PERMANENTLY on the 9th, if the lighter Tory cuts were found UNLAWFUL in court how can WORSE be legal?! #LCWRA #TakingThePIP

💯 this. Had I not worked Hackney Community Law Centre & represented "genuinely disabled" people at PIP & ESA appeals, I never would have believed how appalling the so-called assessments are. Rushed. Not thorough. Default position to disbelieve. Rationale for decisions completely irrational.

Another "spread the word" and repost moment. Four weeks ago, I sent a Freedom of Information request to the DWP to determine which disabled organisations and charities they consulted about the proposed changes to eligibility rules for #PIP. Their reply this evening tells us that

A British news channel has said it has nothing to apologise for after a right-wing commentator and comedian suggested the best way to cut the number of disabled people claiming benefits was to starve, or even shoot, them. disabilitynewsservice.com/gb-news-says-i…

Pandemics have historically given rise to fascism. Why? People are terrified of the disabled. They don’t want to see or think about it. Pandemics force them to consider their own mortality. So when governments start labeling us as “expendable”, folks jump on board.

Just wondering why Ofcom and Metropolitan Police have been silent on a disability hate crime where a commentator suggested we disabled people are either ‘starved to death’ or ‘shot’. According to @GBNews it was humour. Thanks to The Labour Party this is now the norm in U.K. #HateCrime

Why is it so hard for people, especially some wellness influencers, to admit this simple truth…. You can do everything right. You can eat the kale, take the supplements, walk 10k steps a day, lift the weights, meditate, sleep 8 hours, avoid sugar, avoid seed oils, avoid

My favourite thing about this country is that 'you can't take money from millionaires, they might leave' is considered a more valid and compelling argument than 'you can't take money from disabled people, they might die'.

currently writing an essay & doing research on how the 1918 flu directly led to the rise of fascism in italy & germany & eugenic legislation even in america and how we are repeating it all right now with covid and this shit is wild y’all….we really never learn from history

Eww this messaging is disgusting and super ableist. “Overcome their disabilities” is a toxic term & suggests all we need is “mindset”… Our bodies don’t work that way. I’ll never “overcome” my disabilities. I am learning to live with them. That life doesn’t include employment.

Disabled people deserve nice things too. They deserve to have hobbies and social lives where possible. They deserve to have holidays and time out. They deserve to have entertainment and connection.

A disabled man has chosen to stop taking life-saving medication because it is too hard to get health and social care This is the system we're introducing assisted suicide into. Are we ashamed yet? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the £232,000,000 she owes give this a RT. If you want Rishi Sunak's involvement in the £14,900,000,000 PPE Fraud he covered up investigated, LIKE.
