This is my son Alex telling just a fraction of his story.

His story shows how people with learning disabilities are harmed in our health system.

Every day 3 people with a learning disability die a preventable death in the UK.

“Fearless journalism is what terrifies politicians, and it must not be cowed."

The BBC must stand up to Trump's $1 billion lawsuit - or risk legitimising the president's false narrative of what really happened on January 6

What’s the next move for the BBC, after Donald Trump’s threat to sue the broadcaster for a billion dollars – and why what it decides will influence much more than its own future.

A 15 year old boy with autism went missing earlier this week

He was selling fruit with his family in Springbranch when he disappeared

They filed a missing person’s report & begged the public to help find him

Turns out he was in a Houston ICE detention facility

They kidnapped a disabled child!

Not sure the man responsible for this poster is best placed to lecture anyone else on taking politics “into the gutter”.

House Judiciary Democrats are demanding Pam Bondi and Kash Patel release of the explosive recordings that reportedly show Trump border czar Tom Homan accepting $50,000 in cash bribes in exchange for steering future gov't contracts to undercover FBI agents posing as businessmen. tinyurl.com/5eddfb67

Please don't conflate the murder of #CharlieKirk with the murders of David Amess and Jo Cox, doing so sanitises Kirk and sullies the reputation of two decent human beings.

It starts with othering then refusing to recognise the human rights of one minority, then they find another scapegoat to persecute, it ends with everyone's rights being removed.

Don't say you weren't warned.

Migrants didn't cut council funding. Migrants didn't cut NHS funding. Migrants didn't close youth centres. Migrants didn't sell off council houses. Migrants aren't filling our rivers with sewage.

Farage and co. will tell you to point the finger at migrants.

Don't fall for it.

And neither should they.

Being a #kidneytransplant patient means that I get lots of common infections that don't bother most people.

The shortage of generic medicines to treat these infections since #brexit has made life extremely difficult.

A plague upon you brexiteer w*nkers!

Thursday or Friday this week #Trump is going to do something truly bonkers to try to manipulate the news cycle over the weekend and try to keep the #Epsteinfiles off the front pages.

Listening to #Trump press conference.

He is scared and lashing out.

Terrible fascist bastard

Everyone is being very precious about the #EHCP at the moment.

Can we all just agree that they are worthless documents that are mostly copy and paste jobs, don't result in any discernable improvement for children, have no input from health services and are routinely ignored by everyone.

Was getting stressed about Alex's referral to the pain clinic and potential appointment

Looks like I didn't have to worry cos the pain clinic won't be offering Alex an appointment and have instead written to the GP with "advice" so that's OK then

They really couldn't give a fucking shit #NHS

Well done ITN news reporting on the 2k+ people with Learning Disabilities/Autism are locked away in mental health facilities for no good reason.

Consensus was that the public would be shocked if they knew.

My view is that most people don't give a shit.
