Pleased to see this out after a loooong time wrangling over photo permissions. New article on Francoist disabled veterans of the Spanish Civil War and ideas of 'privilege', based on my PhD thesis. Happy to send a pdf if anyone doesn't have access #dishist #iberhist #franquismo

When I wrote about assisted dying last month, I was told by advocates - including a nurse - that disabled people’s fears of a slippery slope is “propaganda” and hysterical. Consider that this is what The Times was willing to print. Imagine what these people are saying in private.
