Big thanks to the team @LegalsparkSE for their recent support.
Fast, professional service and another LGBT-run SME in Scotland doing great work. 🏳️🌈💪🏼
We’ve written to @BootsUK about their instore and window signs which #discriminate against people with #disabilities who are exempt from wearing #facemasks #facecoverings. This is encouraging #harassment and that #disabled people are branded #unsafe – at Glasgow, Scotland
People with #disabilities should not face #harassment because they have an exemption from wearing compulsory #facemasks the story is covered in today’s @Daily_Record dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scott… #discrimination #equality #facecoverings – at Glasgow, Scotland
Our Principal #solicitor was refused entry to @Cex because he couldn’t wear #facemask. Explained #legal #exemptions to compulsory #facemasks #facecoverings and #disability #discrimination but they demanded medical evidence.
We’ve asked @EHRC @EHRCScotland to take enforcement action against @TKMaxx_UK for excluding people with #disabilities who cannot wear #facemasks there are #disability exemptions which #tkmaxx refuses to accept. #facemasksuk not compulsory for some #disabled people #EqualityAct
EMERGENCY VIDEO: @H_S_E @BBCBreaking @ScottishTUC @TSScot @scotgovhealth @CTSI_UK @The_TUC these disposable #facemasks are #HealthAndSafety risk. Plastic wire over the nose can pierce the fabric and stab your eye!
Our Principal Solicitor was refused entry to @TKMaxx_UK today. He took his #facemask off because of #anxiety . There are #exemptions for some #disabled people. Refusing entry is #disability #discrimination #facemasks #equalityact #COVID19 #coronavirus
Thank you @VictoriaLIVE for raising #mentalhealth #universalcredit and #Pip welfare benefits. We know from experience how destructive the @DWP can be when it doesn’t take #mentalhealth seriously! @MindCharity @SAMHtweets keep up the good work. #legalspark

The justice system is too expensive to use. That means many #disabled people and others cannot afford to goto #court. Please support Gordon’s petition to change this in the #scottishparliament parliament.scot/GettingInvol…

Fantastic to be @CoopParty Conference in Glasgow this morning listening to @LabourRichard and @Keir_Starmer followed by a debate on the co-operative new deal.
Brilliant to have a chance to speak to @LegalsparkSE and @Glasgow_LGND about their work and campaigns too! #CoopConf19
Sitting listening to the @SocialEnt_UK fringe at #CoopConf19 great contributions on how we need to increase and develop #cooperatives and #socialenterprise as socially responsible alternative business structures. #socent #socentscot
