Kat Watkins je riaditeľkou pre rozvoj UNCRDP v Disability Wales. Je pobúrená, že doktor povedal, že nebude potrebovať pravidelné testy, pretože si nemyslel, že je sexuálne aktívna. Nechala si vyrobiť vlajku Welsh Pride na mieru.

Great write up from Disability News Service on the discussion at #TUCDisabledWorkers conference last week on the UNCRDP. I spoke about the need for the press to hold govt to account for their dehumanising rhetoric around disability and social security policies

How many of you 'strive' to go to the gym, eat healthier, exercise more, drink less, etc. You do not have an obligation to. This is what the government is saying. Care is the responsibility of families only. It will only 'Strive to Support'

Budget 2023 is in violation of UNCRDP

Heading back to UK from #CRDP23 . Grateful for all support in person + online. Disappointed but not surprised by Govt's lack of progress on UNCRDP. Keen for UK to follow UN's stark findings + recommendations on our rights including dialogue with Deaf/Disabled ppl #DefendOurRights

🏛️GOV2.UK On 18/03/24 UK Govt provided their oral defence 👇👇to UN’s Committee for the Rights of Disabled People regarding the UK’s “grave systemic” violations of the UNCRDP when Deaf and Disabled People’s Organisations outlined harsh reality facing disabled ppl that in UK. #ToriesOut622

(1/3) Yet again the UK government has been found in breach of Disabled people’s human rights.
We've put together key quotes from the UN report, a brief timeline of the UNCRDP inquiry and statements from Deaf and Disabled people across our movement.

Sunak’s statements have sent a chill and struck fear for disabled people claiming benefit.

It is not disabled people breaking the system, it is the punitive nature of the benefit system which is broken, with govt flagrantly ignoring the #UNCRDP report.

I'm part of a delegation travelling to Geneva to speak to the UNCRDP. I'm there because in-work conditionality will hit deaf and disabled people hard. I'm grateful to Unite the union: join a union for sponsoring me.

What is doesn't include🤷: Covid-safe workplaces #CovidIsAirborne (more than a discussion is needed here to stop growing disability, barriers & worker attrition), more than one mention of #disabled workers & a #UNCRDP commitment. But it's certainly a start labour.org.uk/wp-content/upl…

An important day at the UN - The UK being grilled over the UNCRDP. vm.tiktok.com/ZGe5d5xbY/

Disability Rights UK response to the UNCRDP report:

'the UK Govt has made no progress on improving the rights of Disabled people. Instead, our rights, access to support, and the provision of services have all deteriorated, with an increase in hostility and hate...'

#CRDP24

I could have cried, reading this.😭

So the UNCRDP listened to the Tories lie through their teeth -once again!

Just HOW is that going to help US, then? 😡

What was it like being at the UN Committee on the Rights of Disabled People? F*cking frustrating. thecanary.co/opinion/2024/0…
