Last week I launched our new taskforce on aviation accessibility with Tanni Grey-Thompson Our mission is clear – to ensure that flying is an accessible, safe and enjoyable experience for all. We are determined to help break down barriers to flying for disabled passengers.

@Tanni_GT This is excellent and excited to see where this goes. However plane travel isn't everyday travel, what are you doing for accessibility on public transport like buses and trains?

@Tanni_GT This is very good. Can we have level boarding standards of the railway too, please?

@Tanni_GT That's great @LouHaigh but it isn't just airlines that need sorting out.

@Tanni_GT Your the minister with responsibility for enforcement of travel for disabled people, for the best part legislation for the same in the Equality Act 2010 already exists. Parts need amending, I suggest you do so and make policy for it instead of this constant gaslighting !

@Tanni_GT Please consider cross-posting on BlueSky, as this platform is going to be directly involved with US Government and will very clearly favour its own interests and skew visibility and perception of foreign government ministerial posts. Its owner also wants to stir up resentment.

@Tanni_GT

@Tanni_GT How about getting on and off P&O Ferries?

@Tanni_GT Another Task Force. Wow, this Govt has more Task forces, initiatives, foundation laying committees....but absolutely nothing achieved. 14 years to plan, but no ideas. Still by the time all of these Taskforces have finished their investigations, the Labour Govt will be out of Govt

@Tanni_GT @LouHaigh don't you support our veterans then? Can't have you upsetting the Muslim council can we.
