As a disabled person these threats from politicians terrify me as there is such a lack of awareness of what equality means in practice for disabled people, and how we make that a reality. Heaven knows what outcomes there would be if such legislation was repealed.
There seems a fashion on the right of politics to say repealing the Equality Act would be a good thing. They don’t say what precise consequences would flow or what they intend to do to prevent adverse consequences. Why then do people mindless cheer on such superficial thinking?
