And you did nothing when in government the education for our children #SEND was kicked down the drain you cut funding to the bone. Support cut, our children’s futures cut .. Remember #SENDCrisis #SENDAction ?

Why do some folk want to see exactly how carers spend their carer's allowance? #UnpaidCarers cos the pittance we get weekly must be accounted for with the public to show we do not waste 'hard-working taxpayers' money' - what has this country become?

What do you suggest maybe sitting in rags on street corner with cap held out? Don’t you think we already have to constantly prove we are ‘worthy’ How many forms did you fill out today? To prove your worth as a human being?
How many firms did you fill out today? To prove your child needs support to access an education? How many times did you sit in a tribunal arguing with a barrister who the LA employed to fight your child’s application to a school and to an accessible education? An armchair full of forms and documents twisted spilling from the chair surrounded by shredded paper

How Many Forms did you fill out to prove you needed a wash, a bath, to be assisted in personal care? How many assessments did it take? An adapted bath is full of forms twisted and spilling out of it

another cog in the bureaucratic nightmare of constant form fillling and 'proving' what a person with disabilities spends their money on, each tiny to large pieces of equipment and aids have to be accounted for /receipts kept and sent
the application for disability related expenditure - twisted form are knotted bound and falling out of a filing cabinet
