The Last Bus
"Helen Deborah Vecht" wrote in message ... "John Rowland" typed wrote: Here is the detail of the formal complaint I have lodged at the Disability Rights Commission about Mr. Edwards: may I suggest others who see the idiocy of his comments do likewise? Don't bother. I contacted the DRC about a policy change which was not widely known but would have a negative impact on the mobility of wheelchair users... I was told that since I was not disabled myself, they had no interest in anything I had to say! What a load of RUBBISH! Able-bodied people have plenty of valid comments to make if they act as wheelchair-pushers, companions, drivers or rail staff with/of disabled people. This speaks of chipped-shoulder discrimination which makes me HATE some radical disabled groups. Not all disabilities are equal, not all disabled people are equal, not all are wheelchair users. For some people with disabilities, a Routemaster is wonderful as there is a good chance that a seat will be available and there's a conductor to help. Finding a seat on a buggy-cluttered low-floor bus isn't always easy... -- Helen D. Vecht: Edgware. We will be in London in October and will be definitely travelling on one of the heritage routes. It is a great tourist experience, and is essentially "London" from a foreigners point of view. cheers Peter Sydney |
