Less than 9% of this huge survey's Autistic respondents said they'd take a 'cure'.

Pleased to see that one Scottish Labour MP has now spoken out against the Labour government's plan to cut disability benefits even further.

@BrianLeishmanMP tweets:
Thanks to my constituents that have emailed me and to those that have spoke to me in person about the rumoured cuts to welfare.
If it goes to a vote, then I will be voting against more austerity.
We need to build a compassionate society that looks after the most vulnerable.
