If I donโ€™t continually post this then people donโ€™t sign petition.parliament.uk/petitโ€ฆ My two children with cerebral palsy are not allowed a blue badge because they are under three. I want to change the law.
Petition: Review rules relating to blue badges for children under three

Petition: Review rules relating to blue badges for children under three

The current rules relating to blue badges have specific criteria relating to children under three. I want the government to review these rules, including the equalities impacts on disabled children.

Individual racism = What Frank Hester said. Systemic racism = Diane having to sit silently while others discussed her life. Camouflaged racism = Garnering money and support from her pain while continuing to marginalise her.

Diane Abbott was the public victim of racist and misogynistic abuse, possibly even a hate crime. Today she had to sit in her workplace silently watching mostly white men discuss her as if she was invisible because another white man denied her the right to a question. Abhorrent.

Make no mistake: the Toriesโ€™ introduction of photo ID to vote is designed to stop younger & historically marginalised people from voting. Do not let them. The Mayoral election is 50 days away. Sign up for your free photo ID now & RT to raise awareness โฌ‡๏ธ electoralcommission.org.uk/vโ€ฆ
