TFN is @scvotweet's magazine for the #VoluntarySector
In the latest mag we look at both sides of the #NewYearsHonours: we celebrate those who were awarded one, and we hear why #TressaBurke CEO of #GlasgowDisabilityAlliance turned one down.

#TressaBurke, chief executive of the Glasgow Disability Alliance, turned down an MBE in the New Year Honours over what she described as the "simply intolerable" situation facing disabled people in the UK!
Good on dear #TressaBurke CEO of #GlasgowDisabilityAlliance
Refused #MBE from a fascistic #Labour raging against disabled people making their way in life to the with some benefits smoothing the bumps. Cuts ensue & they picked the wrong wummin to pay off!
Bravo 💐🙏
