Remaining neutral about the General Election

The General Election is fast approaching. We think everyone should make sure their voice is heard in June, so we've produced some information about accessible voting, and set out what we want the next Government to do.
Under guidance from the Electoral Commission we must make sure that we don't influence votes, and under Charity Commission guidance we must ensure Scope is politically neutral. For this reason we won't be telling you who you should vote for!
We would like you to feel able to discuss your experiences here, but please be aware that we may have to moderate any comments that could be seen to be influencing other's votes.

Disabled people and their families can make a huge difference in this Election, and I hope you'll all join me in voting in June.

I remain politically neutral but the response by the Prime Minister to recent studio audience questions about her party's plans for mental health were nothing short of embarrasing.
