…or something like that. Yesterday, @dontplaymepay me tweeted this:
“I live in a world where £35 million is paid for a footballer yet 60 disabled people lose their day centre because it costs £200,000 a year.”
and was retweeted more than 1000 times.
@dontplaymepay is the mother of two young disabled girls who has been fighting (more or less singlehandedly) a Shropshire council decision to close a daycentre for people with disabilities. She deserves recognition for that work. It’s good to know she’s struck a chord.
