Today is #InternationalDayOfDisability where The Government will no doubt tweet how marvellous that is, while: 8 million disabled adults and 300,000 disabled children are trapped in poverty & 600,000 are living on less than £10 a week ...Because of the government

What if this isn't a kid being cute, but a kid coping with shaming? This Santa video is making the rounds again, w/ folks saying 'how funny, how adorable'. I'm going to show you the sadness, anger, surprise & distrust that so easily goes unseen by us adults. A THREAD.

It is International Day of Persons with Disabilities 💜

When everyone else says you can't, determination says, "YES YOU CAN. Today It’s International Day of Persons with Disabilities we celebrate with you all 💜 #InternationalDayofPersonsWithDisability #DisabilityInclusion #DisabilityTwitter

This United Nations International Day of Persons with Disabilities, imagine if we lived in a world that was truly inclusive & wasn’t afraid of disability? My wish for today & for every disabled person is that we see the person & not the disability. #IDPWD

Today is International Days of Persons with Disabilities. I want to give thanks to all the DPOs, advocacy groups and individuals, who engage on different issues online and in person. We’re all working towards a more inclusive, disabled friendly society. #IDPwD

When you call disabled people handicapable or differently-abled, you are showing your ableism.

When your dog is better at parenting than you are. Someone give this dog a steak! He's not letting that baby get hurt.

In 2010, 4 staff in Calums "special school" restrained him face down. His injuries were horrendous. He wet himself, so they forced him into a chair and stood over him with an egg timer as punishment He doesn't want any child to suffer the way he did. Support #CalumsLaw

VeryBritishProblems "It's Brass Monkey's out there!" Originally from the saying "It's cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey". A Brass Monkey was a tray that they stored cannon balls on. When it got too cold the brass tray would warp making the cannon balls fall off sliding over the deck

Access for disabled people is not a gift or a matter of generosity.

Man on bus to me a wheelchair user: “How long have you been lame? I was lame, too, for a couple months.” Me: “I’m not lame.” Man: “I don’t understand.” Me: “I know.” No disabled person should ever be called “lame.”

I would love to see a tv company tell the story of Cannon and Ball and how we got to where we we got too and the legacy that still lives on. Let’s make this happen for Bobby, retweet, tag people, tv companies, it’s about time our story was told for everyone ❤️

Tonight in my daughters ward I met a mum who had to get her unconscious limp baby to A&E on the bus because an ambulance was going to be 6 hours. By the time they got there his oxygen sat was 69% and he now has brain damage and seizures. She had to take her limp baby on the bus.

As a father to daughters, I cannot imagine a world in which they’re denied an education. The women of Afghanistan have so much to offer. Denying them access to university is a grave step backwards. The world is watching. We will judge the Taliban by their actions.

Many famous people have doubted themselves and felt imposter syndrome, likely including some of your role models.
