We have made the decision to move this account to Bluesky. Find us at @leedsdpac.bsky.social We feel ableist language used by Musk is not acceptable (buzzfeed.com/natashajokic1/…). likewise his unacceptable transphobic language (people.com/elon-musk-daug…).

Big thanks to @DpacLeeds & Disabled People’s Human Rights Network @Amnestydisabili for the powerful van ad that brought this message right to Rachel Reeves’ doorstep.

Leeds Disabled People Against Cuts will have a stall at @BannersHeldHigh. Please come along to our stall in Wakefield Exchange to so hello, and if you have any spare time we would welcome offers to help out on the stall.

Yesterday, I led a Westminster Hall debate on government welfare cuts, setting out the damage these would do to our communities. I reminded the government that cuts have consequences and urged them to change course.

On Saturday 3rd May members of DPAC joined the annual May Day rally organised by Leeds Trades Council. The rally showed a strong display of solidarity, with activists from all movements understanding the intersectionality of their various campaigns.

Proud to speak at the Leeds May Day Rally. We need policies that deliver for the working class majority, a trade unionism that fights back and a mass movement against the far right. The government must drop cuts to disability benefits and introduce a Wealth Tax instead.

Together we can force Labour to change course & save disabled lives. Access and easy read information in next post and at linktr.ee/LeedsDPAC #leeds #westyorkshire #protest #cripsagainstcuts #cutskill #disabled #politics #solidarity

#Vote If you have county council elections in England today Remember this! 📢Labour, Tories and Reform are all for austerity Remember that reform called disabled people parasites and Labour and Tories called disabled people scroungers!

Leeds Disabled People Against Cuts sends solidarity to all those impacted by the violent terror attack in Headingly. We stand in solidarity against all forms of violent oppression, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, racism and disableism.
