There are weeks when I could almost come to blows with my editors here about how much I can write about the many and varied appalling ways that Government views and treats Disabled people. So much to say, so little space.
I was going to write about the SEND Plan (special educational needs and disability plan) this week – an important government document in response to parents’ concerns about the state of education for Disabled children (hint: it’s inadequate, and the review does nothing of substance to assuage our fears).
But. But but but. Isabel Oakeshott has unleashed a hundred thousand whatsapps/the hounds of hell upon Matt Hancock to the Telegraph, and a slow dripfeed of astonishing attitudes and comments is now in the public domain.
