DisElectAbility: A Deep Dive into Disability Activism with Paula Peters


In this episode of DisElectAbility, host Autisticly Aar speaks with disability activist Paula Peters from Disabled People Against Cuts (DPAC). Peters discusses the impact of winter fuel allowance cuts on older disabled individuals, the contentious assisted dying bill, and the worrying push towards austerity measures by the current Labour government. She emphasizes the need for increased financial support, accessible housing, and NHS services underpinned by progressive taxation. Peters also stresses the importance of collective activism and the potential role of independent candidates in representing disabled people. She calls for solidarity and urges listeners to engage in various forms of activism to bring about change and support DPAC’s crowdfunded initiatives.
