DAY 1603 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #lisanandy #TNLUK
I sacrificed my placing competing in 25th Deaflympics to give EVERYTHING to my campaign to end the #discrimination of deaf athletes. A sacrifice to secure the future of every deaf child who may oneday represent @deafsport
DAY 1602 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #lisanandy #TNLUK
A big day meeting #Steph_Peacock in our campaign to see deaf athletes stand equal to #Olympic & #Paralympic athletes.1602 days I have asked for this discrimination to end.To be able to say my country supports me. To say I am an athlete
DAY 1601 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #lisanandy #TNLUK
There are no words that describe the path I have travelled in the sporting world other the discrimination
To hold those responsible to account has been much harder than I ever thought but this is a wrong we have to win
#bbc #itv #gmb
DAY 1599 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #lisanandy #nationallottery
ONE of the most important weeks ahead. Always campaigning. Always working on ways to get our story out there. Always knocking down the walls of discrimination
As a swimmer, a deaf swimmer, I live it, I see it……..EVERYDAY

BBC News reported Robert Mueller’s death, but failed to mention Trump’s comment, quite deliberately I’m sure. The BBC board should be deeply ashamed, but as DCMS allows them to ignore the BBC charter & do whatever they want, they’ll shrug it off. #lisanandy
Lisa Nandy ends BBC's fight for survival with permanent royal charter

DAY 1597 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #lisanandy #TNLUK
There are no words to describe how witnessing a Govt turning it’s back on an entire disability, athletes & world event but then a few months later does this.
I will call this out everyday
#BBCYourQuestions #GB #sport #itv #swim #advocacy
Tell #LisaNandy, so she can dismiss it & turn a blind eye to the utterly useless #Ofcom, the regulator that doesn’t regulate. 🙄
TBH, Ofcon (sic) needs disbanding & a regulator with bollocks need to take over.

#Olympic

What’s the difference?
The harsh cruel reality is that you ignore an entire disability with your discriminating white paper.
You are leading the country with your stance
#changethepolicynottheathlete
DAY 1592 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #lisanandy #NationalLottery
I look forward to the day that I stand before you & ask WHY?
WHY have I fought my whole life to stand with #equality?
WHY have you hidden us through your policy?
WHY do you lead a country to follow your lead?
WHY?
BBC News channel have a newsbar at the bottom of the screen “Starmer is not Churchill “ says Trump. It pops up every few seconds and it’s been on there now for 24 hours. The BBC are out to get Starmer, because it’s packed with Tory appointees. They’re laughing at us. #LisaNandy.
Inflation might be coming down #LisaNandy, but all that means is prices aren't going up quite so fast.
😬

DAY 1589 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #LisaNandy #NationalLottery
Fighting for my future
Ignored by those who’s blatant #discrimination hides my existence
A ‘white paper’ isolating us from #equality
This is #GreatBritain
#deafsport #deaf #sport #bbc #elite #pool #equality #bbc #itv #fairness
DAY 1587 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #Lisanandy #NationalLottery
It’s not about who is right it’s about what is right
I have been failed. So failed. Because a govt did not think I had a right to #Equality. I had to stand against cristism from my own National Governing
Body.
I exist too
At first glance the move to allow #Russia to compete in the #Paralympics could be seen as a small positive step in them seeking readmission to humanity
But their attack on #Ukraine during the #Olympics shows their ruthless contempt for our gullibility
Well done #LisaNandy for fast action
#Starmer’s denials of "SPYING on Journalists"look increasingly hollow. We already know his disgraced, #chiefofstaff #MoronMcSweeney ran #LabourTogether. We know that minister #SteveReed was involved,as was #LisaNandy. And #JoshSimons,ordered the £30k spying campaign.

Catch up:DAY 1585 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #Lisanandy #NationalLottery
After the last #Olympics #Paralympics we were subjected to you championing the athletes, the coaches & supporters. The silence you have shown towards deaf athletes is unforgivable.
I have 1 question
WHY?
Excellent news! Off to the Hague with you #keirstarmer #evettecoopeer #davidlammy #lisanandy #shabanamahmood
You are complicit in genocide!
DAY 1584 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #lisanandy #TNLUK
Honoured to be invited with #deafsport to speak infront of 50 judo coaches & judoka at today’s British Judo Adaptive Conference Wolverhampton. Sharing my struggles as a deaf athlete when training & competing - no pathway - no support - deaf
DAY 1584 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #Lisanandy #NationalLottery
A big day ahead representing #deaf athletes, sharing my experiences & amplifying the need for #equality in the world of #sport. A failed system hides my existence so an important day in the fight for what’s right.
#deafsport
@nickferrarilbc.bsky.social is like a pig in muck!
And joining him soon to chuck dirt everywhere but mainly towards Rodney will be the muck chucker supreme, ‘leader’ of the opposition.
*Take care on your wishes*
With Rodders gone, a true leader will emerge and it could be a woman like #LisaNandy
DAY 1580 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #Lisanandy #NationalLottery
As a boy I couldn’t play team sports. I couldn’t hear the shouting for the ball. I wanted to play but I wasn’t wanted on the team. #LFC Foundation ran football sessions every Saturday for kids like me

DAY 1579 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #lisanandy #NationalLottery
Who decided that 1 #disability trumps another in Elite Sport Funding? YOU
Who ignores an entirely disability? YOU
Who #discriminates #deaf #children from the moment they are born? YOU
No excuse
No reason
#silence
#GMB #ITV
The BBC is worth saving it stopped the UK going the way of the US which is why the Daily Mail hated it. BBC News has now been corrupted completely. #UKLabour have to do something about Robbie Gibb. #LisaNandy
They’re selling a man, who wants to bring ICE over here, to the British public.
DAY 1575 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #Lisanandy #NationalLottery
I received a lot of kind messages after my post yesterday.
Yes, I am looking forward to meeting #DCMS & having the opportunity to ask ‘Why have you #ignored me & more importantly lead the country in your stance?’
#GMB #MBE #itv
DAY 1574 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #Lisanandy #NationalLottery
So I’m heading back to the pool next week. The first time since #Tokyo. I don’t want to discuss why. Maybe oneday I’ll share my struggles but not now.
Met up with my coach this week. We have a plan
#MBE #GMB
DAY 1573 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #LisaNandy #NationalLottery
I ask you why?
Why do you #discriminate #deaf #athletes?
How did we deserve to be isolated, hidden & forgotten?
My entire life discriminated because of you.
So many questions & so much silence.
WHY?
#MBE #bbc #itv #gmb
DAY 1572 #MyChallenge to the Govt #DCMS #LisaNandy #NationalLottery
If our government hadn’t #discriminated deaf athletes, kept them hidden & silenced my journey would have been very different.
I can’t let this continue
Please support our deaf population & let’s secure the future of deaf children
#LisaNandy does what her #BigDaddy #Trump tells her to
