    RALLY AGAINST CUTS IN BIRMINGHAM ON NOVEMBER 13TH. DISABILITY FOCUSED.
    RALLY AGAINST CUTS Nov 13 Birmingham

    2 pm, NOVEMBER 13th

    CARRS LANE CHURCH, BIRMINGHAM B4 7SX

    Join Disabled People Against Cuts ( DPAC) at an anti-cuts rally.

    The cuts put forward by the coalition government in the budget and Comprehensive Spending Review will hit disabled people disproportionately hard. A recent DEMOS report says that by 2015 disabled people will lose £9bn.

    Add your voices to ours.

    @telemetry9 Absolutely. It started with Blair & Brown, slowly but surely. For now, its the sick, the disabled, the unemployed. It will not stop there. Wake up, before its too late. Reminiscent of Nazi Germany. It took about twenty years of more of social engineering to culminate in Nazism. Why are the Brits comatosed? There is much more to loose by apathy. The mob will first attack the sick, disabled, elderly, then turn on each other, and perhaps, when too late, the elite.

    @Nikkisneeds I have manic depression, just ignore people that pull that stunt on people… they usually do it because they had an alcoholic parent and have a hair across their ass… and to make them feel superior to you… sad pathetic losers really.

    Don’t pretend they are actually interested in finding “fraudsters” If they were genuine in doing that they would be after the trillions lost to tax evasion. This is about using the vulnerable as a reason and diversion from the real problems in society. IT is about singling out those who they believe can’t fight back. You don’t pick on the strong.
    I have been fighting this growing fascism - but it is frustrating when so many people believe the daily mail lies about benefits.

    Fascism creeps up slowly and insidiously into any society. Germany was not unique. A growing fascism is increasing in Britain. It is fueled by the media and their attacks and misrepresentations of people who are sick and disabled. The popular belief is growing that something needs to be “done” about people on benefits. It is simply another form of blaming those who are vulnerable for the ills of society. It is fascism. Benefit claimant = criminal?

    And I’ll just reconfirm after that, that this is a brilliant video, which highlights that there is more than one world created by almighty God, for His purpose. May they ‘all’ be respected. Amen

    I would just like to point out that no-one featured in this video is in serious pain and none of the individuals has a serious, long term illness to manage such as a neurological illness, heart condition and the like which may affect several (or even all) body systems. Some illnesses are far from simple to manage and it is vital for the individual concerned to be allowed to manage their own health in safety.

    Wonderful!!
    My daughter was in a chair for a year. Even as a child, developed a keen awareness of how the world doesn’t ‘fit’ those with physical challenges..a personal pet peeve,,handi cap toilets,,, for wheelchairs only,, not for mom’s with children,, =) I love the training here for nurse’s that requires a few days in a chair, without ability to verbally communicate, giving a sense of what their patients are experiencing!
    Well done PosterBrat and Thank You!

    @Sarimperil I would have had a ‘normal’ person and an disabled person both standing on the platform listening to a song being played over the loudspeakers and singing along, the girl could have walked past them both. ‘Normal’ person is totally out of tune but because he is cute she smiles at him. The disabled person she passes has an excellent singing voice but gets the dirty “weirdo” look because he is disabled. That would have portrayed the predjudices that often occur.

    If a ‘normal’ person sang in a public space while listening to headphones, they would get odd looks too. The thinking behind that advert was lazy.

    Everyone has some sort of “disability” GET OVER IT.
    Too tall, Too Short, Too Slow, Too Fast, Too Fat, Too Skinny, Too Dumb, Too Smart, too Ugly, too Pretty, etc etc etc.

    The world needs to CHILL on the entire RACE and disability issue.
