“assist them to live, not to die” Powerful words
Disabled people want politicians to “assist them to live, not to die”, Labour’s Vicky Foxcroft told the Commons. "I don’t claim that every disabled person opposes assisted dying, but I do claim that the vast majority of disabled people and their organisations oppose it." They need the health and social care system fixing first. They want us as parliamentarians to assist them to live, not to die.

This bill on assisted dying is not safe due to loop holes for disabled and people with mental health problems.

Apple is “super excited” by Bluetooth’s Auracast feature and to see “how it can be implemented within our technology”
Sarah Herrlinger, Apple’s Senior Director of Global Accessibility Policy, recently described a new feature that allows a single audio source to broadcast to multiple devices without the need for pairing. She called it “a great next step in the innovation of Bluetooth.” However, when asked if this would be coming to AirPods in the future, she remained characteristically reserved, saying, “As you probably well know, Apple does not tend to speak about things that are not out in our world.”

Why Digital Accessibility Is Key to the Future of Product Design
In today’s digital age, seamless online interactions are integral to the customer journey. However, many companies overlook the importance of accessibility, inadvertently alienating a significant portion of the market. Research indicates that 96% of the top one million home pages have evident accessibility issues. Accessibility isn’t just about inclusivity; it’s a business imperative. In the U.S., individuals with disabilities control $490 billion in annual disposable income.

Hot Take: The New PIP Changes Are Long Overdue
Reacting to the Labour Government’s new proposed changes to PIP (Personal Independence Payment) has me feeling a mix of frustration, relief, and cautious optimism. Let’s be clear: support for people with genuine disabilities—physical or mental—must remain a priority. But the current system? It’s bloated, unsustainable, and too easy to exploit. I fully believe in compassion. People struggling with mental health absolutely deserve support.
