Tory peer warns Boris Johnson over disdainful treatment of disabled people – POLITICO

LONDON A Conservative member of the House of Lords warned Boris Johnson that his government’s new disability strategy has “discriminated” against the people it is intended to help and treated them with “disdain.” Kevin Shinkwin, who chairs the Centre for Social Justice’s Disability Commission, wrote in an open letter to the prime minister that the Department for Work and Pensions’ (DWP) engagement with disabled people has been “offensive and disrespectful” as well as “a PR exercise, and not a genuine listening exercise.”  He predicted that ministers are risking a rerun of the U.K.’s widely-criticized race disparities report if they do not delay the launch of the strategy in order to consult properly.
