Remembering NABIL SHABAN: Disability music festival, 1995 the reggae band I was in The Grateful Dub, Nabil guest sang "Working Class Hero". Starts at 3 mins; hear him wail and soar sonically as he'd done theatrically. It was great gig, so glad we did it. RIP Nabil xx

Today the House of Lords begins its scrutiny of the assisted dying bill

They've got the opportunity to prove their worth by doing a better and more honest job than MPs

It’s not too late: the House of Lords can still protect disabled people from this dangerous assisted dying bill | Lucy Webster
MPs passed it without sufficient safeguarding. If there is any point to the upper chamber, it is to give the legislation the open debate we need, says political journalist and author Lucy Webster

I know news coverage of benefit cuts can be distressing. So, I wanted to do something for readers.

If you click on a Guardian news story, you’ll see a “drop box” of signposted mental health support as well as benefits advice. Please do share. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

It disgusts beyond measure how Labour have betrayed us. Going Underground.
Labour has just declared war - on disabled people.

Come on, Starmer cheerleaders. Come out and defend this absolutely nauseating new attack.
