Wonderful tribute...
Feb. 3rd, 2015 06:57 pm ... to disability activist Lucy Glennon from Kaliya Franklin, who knew her much better that I did, Lucy Glennon 3/12/1985 - 29/1/2015 It celebrates her life without once straying into inspiration-porn, and absolutely excoriates Cameron (personally as well as politically - read the storify of when Cam met Lucy) and the Tories for what they did to her.
In other disability news, I had Labour canvassing at the door, and the guy I ended up speaking to is apparently head of the Labour group on Medway council.
'Can we depend on your support?'
'Only if Ed guarantees to save the Independent Living Fund'
'Ah, he did that last week!'
'Er, sorry, no, Labour HQ has refused to confirm that what he said last week actually means keeping the ILF'
'Oh...'
If Labour have even their own senior councillors confused as to what their policy is, then it's not exactly a good omen, is it....
(And their candidate for the general election looks about 12 {sigh})
