#JusticeForDisabledVictims

Disabled Londoners face harassment just trying to get around on public transport. TfL's campaign calls for people to 'act like a friend' when they see it, but we need to tackle the root cause: politicians and the media stirring up hatred against Disabled people. #NationalHCAW

Disabled victims of hate crime deserve justice. We're demanding change. #NationalHateCrimeAwarenessWeek #NationalHCAW
