Fascinating to see @USDOT imposing a $50 million fine on an airline for appalling mistreatment of disabled passengers. Another news report: nytimes.com/2024/10/23/tra… I wonder if @transportgovuk would consider a review and fine like this, or empower/fund the @UK_CAA to do it.

HEARING CANCELLED This hearing has been adjourned at short notice, to 23rd and 24th July. I'm pretty devastated - and I'm sorry to others who made arrangements.

More details about the 18/19th June Climate Justice case and how to register to attend the court in main or overspill room with the courts (by 17th June) at kingqueen.org.uk/climate_adapta… There is also cautious accessibility info which the court claims they will provide.

Do we know any disabled folk who lives in the Cobham area of Surrey? We've been asked for help to find people to campaign about the reduced access at Timpsons from an accessible store location to a small pod which is not accessible. @SurreyCoalition maybe you know some folks?

Lovely to see a positive brilliant access story. We love to see it. Do we know of any museum orgs who we could share this as "great inclusive practice" with? If so, please tag them in! @charlhyde you might know for example :)

We are sorry to see @BlondeHistorian has experienced Yet Another Guide Dog Refusal. However, @BlondeHistorian has excellent strategies similar to our webpages reasonableaccess.org.uk/resources/asse…. She also tells allies what is helpful during a refusal or how we can help reduce refusals.

This is a fantastic 20 min video with good captions where @MikeyCycling interviews @saj_anderson about one of his PHV driver refusing guide dogs cases in the Magistrates court & challenging discrim. Mikey also goes on to explain a bit more about the 2.5 hours in court itself.

Assistance Dog users, what creative strategies do you have for dealing with potential and actual dog refusals? Do you have scripts that you use, or distraction tactics. We're thinking of blogging the ones people share with us to share with everyone.

Disabled people: What kinds of activism or disability rights activities would you like to learn more about or how to do? We know people with skills in different kinds of activism and activities and we're thinking of running some things on this. DMs also welcomed.
