Re:Wow! Ellie's latest gold... 12 Years, 10 Months ago
Is it wrong to not be interested in the Paralympics? Thought the Olympics where incredible but I just don't care for the games one iota. Even the "story" behind each athlete bores me ridged. Like a pastiche of some random X Faxtor contestant wheeled out (sorry) to go over every detail of the massive achievement being able to compete. Everyone else seems impressed by it all but isn't it all peer pressure? Confused yet again.
Re:Wow! Ellie's latest gold... 12 Years, 10 Months ago
Cameron hands the medal to Ellie, showing his support for people with disabilities, whilst at the same time cynically planning to cut benefits for people with disibilities and closing down remploy factories in Wales.
Prejudice and attacks on disabled people are at an all-time high and the government does nothing about it. It seems to be only the disabled people who are in the headlines that matter.
