Zack Polanski nails it! There's plenty of money around. It's just that too much of it is concentrated in the wrong hands...

We should NEVER forget the illegal and medically inappropriate DNRs that were inappropriately placed on people for no other reason other than they had a learning disability. Truly shocking.

Does anyone know an autistic ARFID specialist? Hopefully someone who also has ARFID themselves? Neuro affirming too. Thank you!

Dear Shabana, I notice today that you referred to me in your speech on immigration at the IPPR think tank. You said: “A party leader should not be on the beaches of France encouraging people to make a perilous crossing on small boats.” I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised especially after the hateful Labour campaign in Gorton and Denton, but this is just the latest in a string of lies peddled by a discredited Government who intentionally fan the flames of racism and division. When I went to Calais, I was not there to encourage people to travel to the UK. I was there to see at first hand the suffering your Government and successive Governments have done in demonising migrants in a pathetic bid to pander to the base instincts of Reform and the flawed strategy of Morgan McSweeney. As you will know, if you even bothered to research my visit instead of taking Reform talking points, I was there to witness the brutality of families living in tents in freezing temperatures. I filled water tanks and picked up litter. What that visit did do is confirm my belief that if we are to smash the boat gangs and stop the boats, we need to offer safer and managed routes for migrants to come to this country. Showing compassion as a politician is not a crime. In fact, we need to see much more of it. It reminded me of a young MP who in October 2015 spent three days in Lesbos helping migrants fleeing war-torn Syria. She posted videos on X, talked about handing out water and croissants to refugees and food parcels. When she returned to the UK, she wrote a very moving piece in the New Statesman. She said “we have to work with our European partners and create new, safe, and legal routes for refugees to get to Europe. We cannot abandon them to their fate, left as prey for smugglers whilst risking death on the seas.” She said “maybe we can make ourselves feel better by saying no-one is making them get on the boats. And again, the Home Secretary is not entirely wrong when …

Dear Shabana,

Let's clear some things up around migration and remember we're talking about people's lives.

Why does the media always amplify irrelevant ignorant voices? She is outdated in her views, didn’t care to keep up with progress in her field, why is her opinion relevant? Any reputable expert would keep up with new research and do no harm to the community she dedicated her work to.

😮 WOW- we’re already 6 letters away from the first 1000 sent to the Department of Health demanding action on corridor care!

We had a response from a minister but it wasn’t good enough… so we’re taking further action. Takes seconds to send your letter!💙

Most of society doesn’t want autistic people to thrive.

They want us quiet.

Compliant.

Grateful for scraps.

Ashamed of our needs.

Too exhausted to resist.

Because thriving autistic people ask questions.
Name harm.

Set boundaries.

Disrupt the systems that rely on our silence.

Autistic life is getting accused of overreacting when actually all you're doing is reacting appropriately to a situation that just feels wrong to you.

Autistic life is becoming hyperfixatied on something and then realising oh I thought I was only looking for a few minutes when in reality where has two hours just gone.

The warmongers were wrong about Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya. Now watch them make the same mistake about Iran | Owen Jones Israel is the main source of terror and instability in the Middle East. But the west continually turns away from this reality, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones

Israel is being portrayed as the victim as it launches a war of aggression against Iran.

It's committing genocide, invading its neighbours, committing every war crime under the sun.

Feel like you're losing your mind?

Well, you're not.

Disabled people have warned the Labour government that they will “not go quietly” and plan to keep fighting its plans to cut spending on their benefits by billions of pounds a year, as they staged a dramatic “die-in” outside a London landmark.

We are still waiting for an explanation of how the labour government will ensure that "those who want to work should be supported so that they can do so" while cutting the benefits that support disabled people to work.

The UK must end ALL arms sales, sanction Israel & expel its ambassador.

The autistic urge to explain why you’re explaining why.

Even if you're not Autistic, chances are there is probably more people than you realise that you know, without knowing they're autistic.
