Petition: Protect legal right to support for children with SEND
I believe that the Government’s proposed SEND reforms could limit EHCPs, weaken legal rights, replace individual plans with packages, reduce appeals, and remove school choice. In my view, children cou...

#Oliverscampaign 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.

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

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.

The world would be a much better place if people actually said to autistics what they clearly want without the rubbish of implied and unwritten rules. Doing what was asked then being lectured about not doing what was implied does not count as a better place.

People say "you don't look autistic" like it's a compliment. But at this point I just find it incredibly insensitive. Either you are questioning my diagnosis or you're telling me you think autism is something to be ashamed of. Either way, it's not the compliment you think it is.
