Reading Simon Jarrett's history of 50 years of British Journal of Learning Disabilities. Flags were raised in the journal nearly 40 years ago about prison-like units. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11…

The Four.

Convicted of abusing people with learning disabilities and autistic people.

Yet they only received suspended prison sentences.

Beyond grim Ministry of Justice and not justice at all.

Here's my take in Community Living Magazine on 'Never Have I Ever' on Netflix. A good series but in my opinion they got it wrong with the role they gave to their learning disabled character. communitylivingmagazine.com/insipid-charac…

When a Labour MP celebrates blocking five homes for people with learning disabilities on the basis they would undermine community cohesion, what hope is there of ever seeing such citizens embraced in the heart of our society? My i newspaper column inews.co.uk/opinion/mp-cel…
