@friendofsnoopy They stopped me getting out of my road. Have to blow a whistle and hope they hear on the scaffold wait for them to come down and let me out. All because no drop curb and no ramp. Only stops me everyone else steps around it. Barrier only stops me no one else. So annoying.

@findjoyeveryday Have they trapped you in your home? Because I believe that classes as deprivation of liberty

They finally started cladding work on our block. But have blocked off front exit with barriers both sides. Forcing you to step into road. Of course no ramp provided. Make two complaints no one is listening. We have a back door to our carpark but the

@friendofsnoopy @GMB I came to say the same thing! Good luck with that

@GMB Except if you are a non-ambulatory wheelchair user, because almost no Hospitals can weigh you then, let alone GP surgeries.

Millions of people will be summoned for annual weigh-ins at GP surgeries under NHS guidelines to tackle obesity. Everyone with common conditions including arthritis, heart failure and diabetes will be weighed and measured under a proposal from Nice, the health watchdog. Staff will also be asked to use a tape measure to record people's waist size. @DrHilaryJones has more on this.

On top of that blocked pavement so I can’t leave my Road. Unlike everyone else who is stepping around barrier. I kid you not I have to wave and blow a whistle to alert them on scaffold to let me in & out. Failed 3 times already. Just for lack of ramp! Where are the rules?

Point of two exits is should one be blocked we have a second door. Well everyone but not me. Sick of having to fight access all time.

Don’t want play chicken till the next road so stuck in this morning. Blocking dropped curbs, garages and parking fully on the pavement!! Why do van drivers think above the law? @WatesGroup

@WatesGroup Can you educate your employers that pavements are not for parking on? Not only are they also blocking a resident garage but also the drop curb (nearest one is 150metres down a busy road) do they believe can’t get a ticket if you are not on the road?!!

@RosemaryFrazer Me too!

I'm up for it all and have bought in provisions to see me through to the morning.

Ironically the hassle today over the textphone is excatly why I do have to resort to get people to pretend to Be me in the first place. You couldn’t make it up. Double bonus points if the text phone operator is a man and you are a women. #imposter.

@TheRehn Always the extra stress and work huh. Be fab is they actually assumed somebody would have issue and got ahead with the evac plan. But that would be a fairy story

@findjoyeveryday at the moment I am pretty sure they didn’t actually read the email, I might have to sort out calling them, can’t risk showing up in another city and not being able to get in!

Sent an access note to some summer accomodation (large place, many rooms) saying I can't do stairs and other access needs. Got a reply with 3rd floor room number and check in time. As I understand it they have lifts, but I was checking, also nothing clarified for fire evacuation.

Still can’t just access big proper organisations like everyone else. Where is the equality training??

Another day wasted because I’m disabled. Cheers @IcelandFoods still have a cracking stress headache. Still no order and no answer. But if I could use the phone you would sorted this 6.5hours ago!! A blip for you maybe a regular nightmare for me. It’s 2024 and disabled people

@north_residents @MetTVH @luhc That’s interesting thanks. We have been told they are not going block light but who knows.

@findjoyeveryday @MetTVH @luhc happy to have conversation with you after this election week is over - start here gov.uk/government/pub…

Our ground floor residents will be living like this for the next 6 months as the hoardings have now gone up @MetTVH we want a better solution for residents who shouldn't be expected to live in the dark @luhc

I know this would be an issue. The store picked up twice then hung up when text phone. Don’t expect them to know any better. But customer service at head office yes I bloody do.

@IcelandFoods hi can you help. Had a member of your head office refuse to help me because I use a text phone. She refuse to go through standard security questions as it might not be me! Don’t want wait 4 days for email reply when phone does instant.

Had a mini panic attack passing job centre today. I don’t have any anxiety or mental health issues. This is purely due to Tories & news. Well done for making those who’s life is already really difficult that much more stressful. When is the next election?

The lecture. YES I have tried every other straw going and for lots of reasons they don’t work good enough for me. I can use plastic syringe everyday but a plastic straw seems to be a bridge to far

Year yet we now have to get the lm like restricted drugs and be treated like we are a criminal. I’ve got supply for now but looking to the future. No point saying provisions for disabled people have been made it no pharmacy wants the extra trouble of doing. Before anyone gives

#DisabilityTwitter Has anyone worked out how to get plastic straws yet? Apparently Gov website says these are still Available from registered pharmacies on line & in store but of course can’t find a single bit of information. Their own research says after ban need 44million a
