@LukeBeardMad @MePeterNicholls What is "free car" to you? A status symbol? You want to poo into a bag 4 ever for a car?

@MePeterNicholls Actually free cars are a thing spoke to someone who does qualify for a free car.

Misinformation around disability benefits and “free cars” needs addressing urgently. Here are the clear facts: a thread🧵 Blue Badges •Blue badges DO NOT mean a free car. •A car displaying a blue badge is not necessarily a Motability car. continued…

1/2Despite the carnage today, this lady was adamant to train staff that she and her daughter, were entitled to sit in 1st class for free because she couldn't find a seat in standard. She hadn't reserved one, also refused to pay for an upgrade.

2/2It is the first day the trains are running after Christmas. Everyone is trying to get home. Yet she laughed about how they expected her to stand for her short journey and was rude to the lovely train staff. How entitled to feel u hv a right to a £100 upgrade on 2 £10 tickets?

Oh, and I fell and hurt myself on the train getting to family last week too. #crosscountryuk #ableismsucks, #accessforall

Another Christmas another train journey fail. Was refused entry to my booked train over other able-bodied passengers because of my mobility device. #crosscountryuk

I am on the next train but the train afterwards is cancelled completely. Staff are lovely as usual. The seat next to me has someone got halfway to their destination and had to give up so taking the train back to where they started first thing this morning.

@nationalrailenq Just been denied access onto a train because of my disability. Why only 4 coaches allowed on the busiest train of the year? #crosscountry #disabilityuk

Please check before you travel - there will be continued essential engineering works and upgrades taking place as Network Rail works to improve the railway. For more visit: orlo.uk/Z4BsI

@CrossCountryUK Just been denied getting on a train because I am disabled, had a reserved seat, passenger assistance etc. #ableismsucks #disability #Discrimination

@NeilCouling @rearend52 I received a call last wk about my migration suggesting I needed a fit note, 2 days after I called to check and was reassured I wouldn't need to. Who was telling the truth?

@rearend52 We aren’t yet into big numbers but to reassure, we have an existing process to catch these cases, not perfect works for most, but you will see cases when doesn’t. Given volumes going up we are developing a tactical fix, to catch all, as I write, with a full system fix due later.

Latest #UniversalCredit statistics from yesterday

@DisRightsUK @CrossCountryUK

Travelling 1st class today via cross country, train at full capacity, no longer accepting passengers. Next train? Cancelled.

@CrossCountryUK Also it was the station staff that told me they were unable to honour your Ts and C's and that cross country were non responsive to their requests.

@lvc200 Apologies, hopefully you've managed to board the 14:13 however if you do require any assistance please speak to the staff at the station. ^Max

@CrossCountryUK I have a 1stC res for 1513 Bhi to Soa with disability ass. My train has been cancelled. The 1413 might be too full for me, where is the taxi for me listed in the ts&cs?

@CrossCountryUK I have been fortunate to get on but it is crowded, uncomfortable with no access to facilities. Not worth the cost of the 1st class upgrade. Plus have had to take the priority seat of a gentleman that just had surgery in 1st class.

@patricksmash @AmazonUK Mine too

@AmazonUK issues with Alexa this evening. Just kicked all services connected into haywire. #alexa #amazon #iot

@O2 Just called O2 to verify a scam caller who had my O2 webchat info but sounded hinky. Got through to another outsourced call room. How do I know it is you?

@jaysonfrayley @barstoolsports I like my BSL thanks

@barstoolsports I know ASL (American Sign Language) and apparenlty this is BSL (British Sign Language), according to comments. WHY TF THEY ASTRONOMICALLY DIFFERENT. LIKE THE BRITISH ACCENT THAT THICK??

Margot Robbie communicating with one of her fans in sign language is why she’s the best

@santanderukhelp Huh. I realise this is years late but may I suggest you look at your inclusion and accessibility policies? Not everyone can use or has access to a desktop device due to disability 🤦🏻‍♀️ #tonedeaf

@lvc200 Hi Lisa, I'm sorry for the wait times. Have you tried completing this on a desktop device instead? ^GC

@santanderukhelp PPI website down on deadline day. Nobody picking up PPI complaint number. What happens now? Is there an email for PPI complaints?

@RevdNirvana @acnbchurch @SCM_Britain Did the inclusive session happen in the end? I wanted to go but was told it was cancelled, I was hoping to hear about the disability inclusion plans?

Really excited to be with a small group from @acnbchurch today as we start our journey of affirmation and welcome using the #HonestChurch toolkit from @SCM_Britain
