Eugenics 2021 style. It is a disgrace that a single person with a learning dis* should be given a DNR notice if they aren't too frail to benefit from resuscitation. @MattHancock @CareQualityComm @chrishattoncedr @UK_ACP @BPSOfficial @FPLD_Tweets theguardian.com/world/2021/f…

We are committed to challenging ALL forms of racism and in recognising that different communities experience different kinds/forms of racism. Ignoring any type of racism (e.g. Wiley's antisemitic comments) encourages the growth of racism of all kinds. Our joint principles are 👇
Witnessed a @sainsburys security guard pulling/dragging a man into the shop after the alarm went off to check his bag. The force used was excessive, unreasonable, shocking & extremely concerning. Approached manager to explain how traumatising (1/2)
this could be particularly for ppl with hidden difficulties(e.g.autism/learning disability) who may appear resistant to bag checking, I was dismissed and patronised. This horrific behaviour was one sided and inappropriate. Who is accountable for customer safety @sainsburys ?(2/2)
