Mummy & daughter day out to Frida Kahlo's Casa Azur in #CDMX. Travelling with a medically complex kiddocan be nerve-wracking, but so worth it. Both of us learning more about this feminist disabled pioneer ❤️ #travellingtrachy #disabled #fridakahlo #deaftravel ##artisforeveryone #mexico #casazur

"Fraud level for Pip remains less than 1% and that 46% of applications are refused – with a shocking 70% of those refusals that go to appeal being overturned...There are 16 million disabled people in the UK – not even a quarter of those people currently receive Pip..." #TakingThePip 2/2

The kiddo wasn't scheduled to perform, but decided she fancied it, so she negotiated herself a last-minute signing spot for the last song! #camdenmusicfestival #bsl #Camden #deaf #inclusion #tracheostomy #proudmama #medicallycomplex #deafgirl #bslchoir #signlanguage ##royalalberthall #rah

The first time in 21 years for the Social Democrats to be the largest party in Finnish municipal elections.
Municipal elections in #Finland shaping up to a major, even unprecedented victory for the left in general. Social Democrats set to become the biggest party, and are very close to winning the vote in Helsinki - would be the first time in half a century. Radical right is the biggest loser.💪

I remain gravely concerned by today’s welfare announcement, to put it mildly.
Cutting social security for disabled people will only deepen poverty and inequality.
This wasn’t in our manifesto and it isn’t what people voted for when they elected a Labour government.
