ALT The main text of the letter reads: "Dear Prime Minister We are writing to you on behalf of Disabled people’s organisations and the UK’s 16 million Disabled citizens, to ask why on day 7 of your new Government, a Disability minister hasn’t yet been appointed. It is absolutely essential that the Labour Government tackles these inequalities and develops a transformational plan for change. To do this, we need a Disability Minister with the authority to take a cross-government approach, provide direction to Departments, engage with Disabled people and our organisations and track and monitor change. We need a Disability Minister with the authority to act and inspire coordinated government action. We need a Disability Minister to work with Disabled people, to understand our experiences and to create a just society. We need a Disability Minister to develop an agenda for change that is supported across government. DR UK"

In front of him at the bottom of the screen is a pink/purple rectangle with a quote saying "It takes us way beyond thinking about services, to think about how do people genuinely live their best life? And the importance of connection, the importance of self-esteem, the importance of choice." Jonathan Senker, Chief Executive
