@rthonjennie @Number10cat Monty the chocolate and tan coloured standard dachshund says hello Jennie, his paw-rent mum has met you at last years LGA conference on Bournemouth and his daddy paw-rent is also visually impaired. Monty has a friend, Fergie the guide dog. 🦮🔶

@adamfare1996 @arbaggage_ @PolitlcsUK You're right but I am SSI and still able to see pictures and read text. Not everyone with VI is without sight. This is why blind was changed to the more inclusive form of severely sight impaired. I like Alt text but can still see the pictures. 🦮🔶

@sotonmush2 @PolitlcsUK Not all Blind people arewithout sight, I am classed as severely sight impaired, this is the newer more accurate terminology. Visual impairment is a spectrum, guide dogs users don't have to be totally without sight. My brother has a guide dog but is able to read large print. 🦮🧑‍🦯

@LibDems @libdems As a visually impaired Lib Dem member and Diversity officer of the local party executive myself, and now that we have a VI MP and guide dog user, it would be great to see (excuse the pun) future images posted with Alt text. 🦮🧑‍🦯🔶

@EdwardJDavey We need you to get to work with @Keir_Starmer please to sort the mess out at bus stops in cycle lanes as they are simply not working for blind and visually impaired people. x.com/nfbuk/status/1…
NFBUK@NFBUK

@Keir_Starmer blind peoples access needs at bus stops in cycle lane schemes has been systematically ignored over the past 10 years, leading to blind people being locked out of using their bus services. Will you change this & put an end to this discrimination please?

Disabled people felt neglected and treated like an afterthought by previous governments. Let’s hope; We have a Minister for Disabled People at a senior level Disabled people are placed at the heart of policy making. Expand & prioritise the Cabinet Office’s Disability Unit.

@LibDemCam It was a pleasure to be fortunate enough to be along for the ride. I have the utmost confidence in you, my friend. You could show a good few politicians what being a man of conscience, respectability and guile. Time to make Tewkesbury a Lib Dem stronghold now. 🧡🗳️🔶
