Disabled Londoners sounded the alarm before Grenfell, but were ignored. We can't make that mistake again. I'm glad the London Assembly listened to concerns from @inclusionlondon.bsky.social and backed our motion for the Mayor to work with government to strengthen regulations for PEEPS.
Two adults are walking through a park in conversation with each other, one is using a walking aid and the other is carrying an umbrella. There is a town skyline in the background. The copy reads ‘You donate it. We double it. 2-9 December only’ and there are Living Streets and Big Give logos.

Red textured background with yellow rectangle and arrows. Bold black text quotes a research participant: "The biggest barrier I face as a blind guide dog handler is street clutter. Even the most familiar route can become impossible due to pavement parking, dumped rubbish, e-scooters or roadworks."
Streets that work for disabled people work better for everyone.
Decluttering our streets makes our communities safer, easier to navigate and more welcoming. And we can all play a role in making that happen.
If you could change one thing about your local streets, what would it be?
De grootste D66 uitslag ooit én dat hebben we gevierd! Wat een avond.
We wachten in spanning op de definitieve uitslag, maar één ding weten we zeker: wij willen onze positieve missie voortzetten en het beste in elkaar naar boven halen voor álle Nederlanders!
Three disabled white people sit and stand on a bridge, gazing firmly at the camera. The first is a man wearing a bright orange cardigan, he is a wheelchair user. The second is a woman with long sandy hair, she is a wheelchair user. The last is a tall man with cropped white hair and a red shirt. The photo has a hot orange background with yellow electrical tape with 'Take Action!' in black text. There are yellow arrows and chevrons pointing to the photo.

I joined @livingstreets.bsky.social as a Trustee to support their mission to create safer, healthier and more inclusive streets which are accessible for everyone.
Tuig. Je blijft van politieke partijen af.
Als je denkt dat je ons kan intimideren, dikke vette pech. Wij laten ons mooie land nooit afpakken door extremistischte relschoppers.
Walgelijk hoe deze hooligans agenten aanvallen, brandstichten, de snelweg blokkeren en wapperen met prinsenvlaggen, het symbool van de NSB.
En dat alles in de naam van 'wij zijn Nederland'. Nee. Dit heeft niets met Nederland te maken. Het is pure intimidatie.

MISSING 375,000 accessible and adaptable homes that could have been built since July 2022. Image of a wheelchair user entering a home. Logo of Housing made for everyone (HOME) in the bottom left corner.
The numbers are in – and they’re worrying. Since July 2022, of 487,000 new homes built, we estimate over 375,000 feature inadequate minimum accessibility standards.
As members of the HoME coalition, we are calling for policy change to ensure every new home is accessible.
What would safer streets mean to you? 🙋

Happy 77th Birthday to our NHS 🎉
Thank you to all the NHS staff working hard to care for us and keep us healthy.
The Liberal Democrats will always fight to protect our NHS and social care, and deliver on William Beveridge's great liberal idea.
Rob Jetten is verkozen tot lijsttrekker van D66.
Hij staat voor een D66 dat verbindt én durft. Een partij die vooruitkijkt, keuzes maakt en niet terugdeinst voor de grote uitdagingen van deze tijd.
Wij kiezen voor vooruitgang.
Aan de slag!

Lib Dem research reveals 55 constituencies in England could see 90% of those claiming the standard rate of PIP lose out following the Government’s cuts.
Met groot verdriet neemt D66 afscheid van Jan Terlouw. Hij is op 93-jarige leeftijd overleden, omringd door zijn familie en dierbaren in zijn vertrouwde Twello. Het verlies van deze bijzondere man voelt als een diep gemis voor velen. We denken aan alle mensen die hem liefhadden.

The words 'Only 3% of disabled people say they can travel without planning in advance', in bold black text, the numbers are on pink electrical tape surrounded by pink arrows, with a vivid turquoise background.
veryone should be able to travel easily, but only 3% of disabled people say they can do so without advance planning—held back by systems that just don’t work for us. It’s time to make the UK’s transport truly accessible to everyone. 👨🦼🧑🦯🧏♀️🐕🦺

Please park politely.
