I was reading up on that government scheme yesterday because I'd been asked to comment for:

Mixed and wary response to government’s new transport access campaign

I'm in some seriously flattering company there, the head of Transport for All, Doug Paulley who won a major case on wheelchair spaces on buses at the Supreme Court, and Stephen Brooks, the Rail Sector disability champion (I understand why he basically no commented, he has to work with DfT every day), whereas I'm pretty much a dilettante on transport accessibility who occasionally mouths off on twitter. I think John Pring (the reporter) roped me in because he knows I'm good for a few sharp comments - and a disability access campaign that spends most of its time talking about it's 'branding' needs a few sharp comments!
