I’m on my 5th Motability car & have never been “given” one yet. Advanced payments cost even more because I can only drive an auto due to leg neuropathy, and have to have one big enough for my folding power chair to go in the boot. Why are MPs allowed to lie so blatantly when it comes to disability?

My sister has a motability car and has never been "given" one. So where are these free cars hmm? She usually pays between 3/4k advance payment plus monthly motility allowance plus extra for necessary adaptions. So who exactly is getting a free car 'cause it certainly isn't the disabled!

What would be nice is to have the same spec minus things that take away boot space and "sport" seats that make getting out a little more awkward.

It's like every job advertised these days is for long shifts. Yet study after study shows it's generally bad for people and productivity. There there is the disability side - long hours are making it hard for people who can't do long hours to get jobs.

I got ruined when Festival Republic turned up and tried to run it like Leeds and Reading. Since then they have been chipping away at what made it good and penny pinching and things like chairs that don't fall apart, or enough platform space for the number of tickets sold.

Download? Why would I want to go when I can see the headliners I want to see a year earlier at Piece Hall, with an actual decent disabled platform, good sound and you can actually see and band? Plus all the smaller bands I want to see don't do Download anymore
