I would like to know who moderates the moderators !!! The is a law against slander and disability discrimination, and to call some a “crip” and “scrounger” when you do not know their circumstances, is outright discrimination. Maybe the person concerned should check the facts and find out a bit about the person before making such comments !! Because it might come back and bite them !!!
I do not work because of serious brain damage but do voluntary work, I was told I can never work again by consultants, I have memory loss and wander at times, but I am involved with the disabilty society and I am also a welfare rights adviser, I am a member of the IRTE,SOE,ILT and I am also a writer.
I will not stand for outright discrimination. Neither will my solicitors or the disability discrimination board of Scotland
The chat room is unmoderated and clearly marked as such . its a bit of a free for all in there,
That said I doubt if anyone in there was out to deliberatly offend anyone.
Have you tried PMing Lucy to voice your concerns ?
I have for future reference made the warning more clear.
I apologise for any offence caused, Willie, it certainly wasn’t intended that way. The banter in question at the time was all pretty close to the knuckle, and I apologise if it went a little over the top. As a scrounging crip myself, I am guilty of forgetting that others may not be quite as light-hearted and frank about their situation as I am, and know now for future reference that you don’t see things that way. Apologies again.

I was in formed last night in the chat room I was a “crip” and scrounger by LUCY
If that’s all she called you then you should be thanking her for letting you get off so lightly . You get would a lot worse off some members in there if you catch them on a bad day, believe me! Well, that’s only what I’ve heard, to be truthful. I don’t have any personal experience of being on the receiving end of a sharp-tongued member as I’m not an argumentative person and keep my head down to avoid such confrontations. Anyway…
The TN chat room is not for wusses, so consider that as some friendly advice to not go in there again!

Alzheimers is an awful disease, so easily confused with aids.
Doctors recommend taking sufferers out for a ride in the car. leave them up a country lane. If they find their own way home, don’t sleep with them
