Fight disability prejudice

I'm sure everyone knows this link by now, but thanks to Clair Lewis, a Manchester disability activist who set up this group to support great friend and collaborator Cerrie Burnell:

Cerrie narrated my award winning film 'When the Telescope Came' and is one of the bravest, most inspirational and - not forgetting - actually downright hilarious people you could ever have the privilege to know or work with.
I hope c**ts like this spend everyday being weighed down by their hearts of stone:
