Catherine, I have loved your dogged determination throughout this whole sorry saga, you have been a real star, you have never given up fighting for every disabled person via email ( it must be getting on for all MP's now ) everyday 😊

In case anyone finds it useful, there is an option while posting to make the pictures a different size. I'll include a picture to show you where that option is below ☺️
When you upload or copy an image into your post, you can then click on the image and a bar of settings will come up. You might have to scroll up to the top of the image to see it. This should be there on both PC/Laptop and Mobile devices.
The default size is large, but if you select the second option across, you can choose medium or small to make it smaller so it takes up less of your post. Hope that's helpful. And I hope you don't mind me using your screenshot in the example @Catherine21!
Then if you find a picture is too small for you to read after posting it, you can just click on it and it should open as a larger image in a new window.

I've kept schtum for a long time about this,but feel the need to speak up now.For those of you out there who are constantly complaining about the Government's attacks on us disabled,just bear this in mind.If you do change your vote for another Party then you are basically adding to the chances of Reform and Farage forming the next Government.If you think this Party have it in for us all,then wait until Farage is in power.This mendacious,divisive and repugnant man will take the current Labour Policies and magnify them ten times over.
IN SHORT,IF YOU VOTE FOR FARAGE,OR EVEN IF YOU DESERT THE LABOUR PARTY AND VOTE FOR A N OTHER,YOU ARE FACILITATING A REFORM GOVT. AND OPENING THE GATES OF HELL.
Please think about this

You're not wrong, but where does that leave us when all the main parties seem to have it in for the disabled? Better the devil you know? Things are bad all round for us.

Right now,Labour are the ONLY option.What people do not seem to realise is that the Labour Party itself will always have its rebels who will challenge their own Leader.The Conservative Party will have very few rebels,while the Reform Party will very probably have no rebels at all who are willing to challenge its own Tinpot Dictator.So,all in all,after careful consideration,the Labour Party is the ONLY option for any discerning voter out there.A vote for any other Party is against our interests.It really is as simple as that.Case closed IMO…..unless somebody knows better.

I understand your point but look at where we are now already. I do not like Labour and absolutely do not trust them, but I also can't claim to know the answer either. It's a rough place to be.

Unfortunately we've had to temporarily pause this discussion as it continues to move off topic and becoming uncivil and unsupportive.

In a dream world I'm hoping Jeremy corbyn makes a party that out numbers labour that all good mps from Labour join could that be a possibility but yes reform oh hell no and kemi seems to be going in really hard quoted saying along lines of people sitting at home doing noting whilst tax payers paying mmm I think government gain from tax payers money I used to get very upset now I just think how embarrassing and how easy humans are to mauliplate causes wars riots unrest all from galloping elites clinking glasses and in glee at the stupidity how strong we would be together I've always been open minded race religion is not something I see I've always seen the person I don't want anymore than anyone else or in competition with anyone but people who are full of dislike and unrest will always be played back to subject all parties seem more blue than red let's hope corbyn comes forward

Just my opinion, many will disagree.
The UK electorate will never vote for any new party that Corbyn sets up, some will, but the comfortable, home owners, or those aspiring comfortable home owners just won't (and they are the majority), they will vote for the main parties, or they will stay at home.

The media and, as you found out a few years ago, the Parliamentary Labour Party certainly didn't. He never stood a chance.
Several of his strongest critics, then Labour MPs, were {moderated content} 2
