DESCRIPTION
In 2016, a United Nations report found the UK government culpable for 'grave and systematic violations' of disabled people's rights. Since then, driven by the Tory government's obsessive drive to slash public spending whilst scapegoating the most disadvantaged in society, the situation for disabled people in Britain has continued to deteriorate. Punitive welfare regimes, the removal of essential support and services, and an ideological regime that seeks to deny disability has resulted in a situation described by the UN as a 'human catastrophe'.
In this searing account, Ellen Clifford – an activist who has been at the heart of resistance against the war on disabled people – reveals precisely how and why this state of affairs has come about. From spineless political opposition to self-interested disability charities, rightwing ideological myopia to the media demonization of benefits claimants, a shocking picture emerges of how the government of the fifth-richest country in the world has been able to marginalize disabled people with near-impunity. Even so, and despite austerity biting ever deeper, the fightback has begun, with a vibrant movement of disabled activists and their supporters determined to hold the government to account – the slogan 'Nothing About Us Without Us' has never been so apt. As this book so powerfully demonstrates, if Britain is to stand any chance of being a just and equitable society, their battle is one we should all be fighting.

FAQ
What’s your warranty?
We’ve got you covered when it comes to our footwear! We want to make sure you have complete peace of mind, which is why we offer a warranty that lasts a solid ninety (90) days from the original date of purchase when you buy directly from everyhuman.com.au. That’s right, we’ve got your back!
Now, let’s keep it real. Our warranty is super awesome, but it doesn’t cover everything under the sun. Unfortunately, any damage caused by neglect, improper care, accidents, or even normal wear and tear like those little scuffs, scratches, or faded colors that come with everyday use is not covered.
Oh, and we want to give you a heads up. If you happen to use AFOs (ankle-foot orthoses) or have a unique gait, it’s possible that there might be some extra wear and tear on the shoes. We totally get it, but just know that this kind of additional usage isn’t typically considered a warrantable issue for this particular product.
