My GP has slowly removed my pain meds. He's not a neuro specialist, but goes by the sacrosanct NICE guidelines. Meanwhile, I've just downed a bottle of wine because I'm in so much pain and have no other outlet. #NHS #disability #chronicpain

We’re saying this publicly because too many disabled people are being put through the same exhausting cycle. The Nimbus Disability Access Card was created to remove barriers yet for many of us, it’s becoming another hurdle. A card that’s supposed to offer dignity and consistency

Disabled people please read and share. Today NHS England has told me they hold no data on whether hospitals are step free and do not monitor compliance with equality law. That means no one nationally is checking if hospital buildings are physically accessible. I am a blind

🛑 Blue Badge Myths – Busted ♿🚗 Disabled people are facing increasing harassment for using Blue Badges. Let’s get the facts straight. 🔴 Myth 1: “You don’t look disabled.” ✅ Fact: There is no such thing as a disabled ‘look’. Many disabilities are invisible, fluctuating, or

and if you're not angry enough, remember, she earns £93904pa just for being an MP, and it's estimated she claims another £39000 on expenses. Yet she bitches about us disabled folk claiming (and therefore living on) approx £16500pa. What an unmitigated cnut..

#disability Hello - if you, like me, are absolutely fucked off with the lies spouted by Helen Whately on Kuenssberg this morning, please consider submitting a complaint. The fact that the BBC are not calling out her lies makes them complicit. Thank you. https://t.co/MqK73OWgTk

As bad as Whatley's lies are, just remember, Kunessberg will have a whole team of people fact checking and talking in her earpiece. The whole damn BBC is complicit in these lies - do they honestly think we're that stupid?

My life - Every Day of the fucking week I'd swap with someone working, healthy and without a Motability car...

This. With bells on.

never underestimate the power of your health to fuck you over. Had minor hand surgery yesterday, and now feel utterly wiped out. Utterly. ;(

ooh, fragile masculinity at it's finest.

Don't you think he looks tired?

well, I've just joined the @RNLI & have bought a couple of nice gifts from them. Seriously - do people think they risk their lives only to ask "can I see your passport?" before rescuing someone?? Racist idiots.

Let’s be clear, Lee Anderson. Citizen’s Advice has *never* filled in PIP forms for well people. They have to be fully accountable because if anything goes tits up, it’s THEM who are in trouble. They’ve been advising for 86yrs. They must be doing something right. #PIP #CAB

PIP is assessed based on the impact of health problems & disabilities (often multiple & complex) on someone's ability to live independently Saying "we'll stop PIP for people with anxiety" just bears no relation to the reality of how the benefit operates

We can’t say this enough. If people think it’s so easy to fake a disability and fraudulently claim disability benefits then they should go ahead and prove it. Disability benefits are notoriously difficult to get and the process is frustrating, humiliating,exhausting and designed

I disagree with the proscription of Palestine Action, and I don't care who knows about it. https://t.co/aN3qf6HjAa

I dunno, maybe because we hate genocide?

oh, hi @GOVUK , this is NOT what democracy is or how it works. Thanks.

Hi fellow autists - when you see this, please remember what a number RSD does on you. This silly twit relies on info from ppl who aren't qualified & don't have your best interests at heart. Remember - autism is a neurodevelopmental condition, it can be seen on brain scans. Thx.
