#DisabledRights

Keir Starmer took Labour to a historic landslide—and then set about punishing the poor, bullying disabled people, and purging his own MPs for having principles.

Now his approval ratings are in freefall, his party is split, and his leadership looks doomed.

Here's how it all unravelled.

Vox Political · The lies that smashed the unions and destroyed our coal industryBy Mike Sivier
Continued thread

It’s wonderful to have the story told first hand from the four students who led the protest. Each were very different characters. But you see their passion as if it all happened just yesterday.

What amazes and troubles me as a British person who is ‘hard of hearing’ and a kid growing up in the 80’s, I knew nothing of this amazing story in #DisabledRights history until tonight.

And why is #Gallaudet still the only #Deaf university in the world?

Labour says it’s celebrating #CarersWeek — but behind the scenes, it’s cutting £4.8bn from PIP and risking the income of thousands of unpaid carers.

No increase to Carer’s Allowance.
No respite.
No support.
Just spin and stealth cuts.

Vox Political · Labour’s £4.8bn disability cuts betray carers this weekLabour marks #CarersWeek by slashing disability benefits, putting millions of carers at risk. This isn’t support — it’s betrayal.

When #parents won't #MaskUp - they teach their #children to not be safe with their #health too. They also teach their kids to not care about others in the community. I'm blown away by how many parents are OK with exposing themselves & their kids to several preventable, airborne illnesses, including covid. They're risking death & disabilities on themselves & their kids.

Our #PublicHealth system is already overburdened & understaffed. We have many former health care workers with long covid & they never returned to work. We are nowhere near prepared to deal with many future cases of long covid & the 2ndary illnesses & disabilities that more people will suffer from - because they aren't being #CovidSafe.

Our government & mainstream media has stopped reporting facts on covid & on long covid. They want the public to forget about it. Which means dismissing the lives of disabled people like me & many others, who are still being covid safe.

From the article: "Among the many targets of the executive orders from Trump’s first few weeks in office are the over 70 million adults in the United States who report having a disability. That’s about one in four American adults, according to 2022 data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention—people who now face threats to their employment, education, and more."

Bonjour à toustes !

Un de mes mécènes sur #Patreon qui à pris l'abonnement Arbre Vénérable, m'a passé commande de cette illustration d'#autodéfensesanitaire.

On a vu pas mal de sportif'ves des JO être masquées, voir certain'es ont dû même annuler leur venue pour cause de covid. C'est le moment idéal pour rappeler que le covid n'a toujours pas disparu (malheureusement) et que plus vous le contractez, plus vous avez de chance d'attraper un covid long.

Dans mon cas, comme je suis à risque (maladie de Crohn) et sous traitement immuno- suppresseur, je ne sors jamais sans. Même en extérieur, surtout quand il y a foule, et je me fais vacciner tous les 3 mois. Et vu la dangerosité de cette maladie, c'est épuisant de voir que le reste du monde se comporte comme si elle n'existait plus.

J'espère que cette illustration vous plaira comme elle a plu à ce mécène !

Prenez soin de vous si vous pouvez !

A new report says one in eight people who are pregnant in Ontario has a disability, but many face barriers to accessible care, as well as disrespectful attitudes from doctors and other care providers.

Lead author Hilary Brown from the Institute for Clinical Evaluative Sciences says people with disabilities have been overlooked in reproductive health care because of societal assumptions that they won’t have children
