The UK has the highest Covid death rate in the world, a third of deaths are disabled people, and GPs are phoning disabled people and the parents of disabled children to urge them to sign DNRs. Disabled people in the UK are not okay right now. Check in on your disabled friends.

For ten damn years, the Tories have been hammering disabled people in the UK. The UN said the Tories had engineered 'a human catastrophe' by their austerity measures. My friends are fucking dead because of the Tories, and now the Tories are killing thousands by proxy every day.

People have no idea how bad things were here BEFORE Covid. And now they're so much worse, which I hoped wouldn't be possible. Words can't touch how profoundly angry and sad I am. And I have no doubt that thousands of disabled people are feeling it, too.

Really think about that sentence again: not only at GPs urging disabled adults to sign DNRs, they're urging the parents of disabled CHILDREN to sign DNRs, too. Don't ever forgive them for this. Remember this at the next election, god damn it.

Every disabled person in the UK is watching eugenics happen in real time. Meanwhile, yesterday Lord Sumption said on the BBC that disabled people's lives were 'less valuable' than others. If you hear distant screaming, know that it's your local shielder shouting into the void.
