#smalltowninertia2 Nice to get some favourable blurb in todays Guardian Observer Magazine, thanks 🙏 @guardian
One thing I’m always compelled to say, not & never my ‘subjects’, I collaborate with community, peers, friends.
English
@JAMortram @UKLabour That’s basically what I’ve said to my MP. Shameless reliance on families to do the hard work and prop up the system.
English
#smalltowninertia2 Dear @UKLabour will you be increasing unpaid carers allowance so we can better care for the loved ones that you will be making suicidal with your barbaric cuts?.
English
@BBCNewsnight @faisalislam Wow, thanks @faisalislam for hauling SEN kids into the mud slinging about state v private. Petitioning for extra time is no game. Medical reports, ed psych evals and, for the child, more reminders of their “failings.” And if they survive, if they do well, we call it an advantage?

“I am concerned about the difference... we want to make the system equitable”
@faisalislam asks education secretary Bridget Phillipson why nearly twice as many private school students are getting extra time in exams under special educational needs provisions than those at state schools

@premnsikka @JAMortram Thanks for this. Glad to see someone has bothered to notice, but this article only scratches the surface of the problem.

More than a million unpaid UK carers living in poverty.
No recognition for valuable work, devotion, care and love
DWP clawing back £251m from 134,000 unpaid carers. Mess over cliff edge thresholds.
HMRC failed to collect £500bn of taxes since 2010.

24/7 as an unpaid carer, same duties, same physical & mental effort, same stress.
Imagine your job & double your hours to 16 a day on average with night calls & get paid £80 a week for it.
Very few are fucked as hard as carers & whom they care for in the UK

#smalltowninertia Whilst I’m on hold to the PIP helpline, Ma had a seizure & broke the seal on her flask of tea. Burned & scarred. This is why I’m her #unpaidcarer to prevent accidents like this. 3 weeks of trying to get a human to pick up a phone at the PIP helpline.
