What’s wrong with this picture of an #EVChargingStation taken by @Lizzy_Ferret and why should we be concerned? #SmartCities? – at Glasgow, Scotland
This is a public charging area for Electric Vehicles at Broxden Roundabout. Two cars at five charging stations with no wheelchair access or access to the EV charging point. This picture was taken by wheelchair user Elizabeth who said. “I see a total lack of planning for the 2030 ban on new combustion engine sales when it comes to disabled people. Can I build my wheelchair at the side of my vehicle using any of these spaces? Can I read the display on the charging point? Can I reach the cable to connect it to my car? So remind me, why exactly do we have “international days” for anything if they don’t effect change? Why am I looking at a modern facility, made for the most modern of technology and I’m still feeling like life for me is very much in the 20th Century?

Disabled people have been hardest hit by the pandemic. As the Chancellor sets out #Budget2021, the Government must take this opportunity to show that disabled people will be supported and #WontBeForgotten in the recovery. This is what we're calling for 👇
Text: Our Budget Calls: Disabled people who are shielding to be given an automatic right to furlough. Make the £20 uplift to Universal Credit permanent and extend the uplift to legacy benefits. We Won't Be Forgotten.

You try positioning yourself correctly AND pressing the button.. The award winning and FREE #buttonApp presses the button automatically from your pocket or bag. THIS is true #Tech4Good in action. #SaferStreets @livingstreets @highwaysmag
A pedestrian crossing a gentleman in the power chair six and wait for the lights to change. He is in the centre Crossing which is the safest place to commence crossing from however the polls and the buttons are on the extreme edges of the coughing and therefore difficult to interact with whilst you were in the correct place to cross the road from I am stuck

Another ‘othering’ too to continue the marginalisation of disabled people. Love is love and shouldn’t be quantified by my disability. Honestly I do often feel like I’m made our to be another species..

Why is this question being asked in the government’s survey which will help formulate their National Strategy for Disabled People? Respondents have told me it’s ‘degrading’, ‘intrusive, inappropriate and insensitive’. More 9am - 11am @BBCTwo @BBCNews
