Because those who have a disability are often overlooked when it comes to resources and facilities.

It's an important subject, and one people feel very passionate, and even angry, about.

YANBU It's getting ridiculous.

It would be nice if it was through concern about over looking.
The majority of posts do look like jealousy though.

Am I missing something?

What's ridiculous borderslass?

That you have to keep hiding threads you're not interested in?

How tedious for you.

I saw a bloke in a van pulling into one of the disabled spots today at tesco (people wouldn't dare to a year or so ago). they obviously aren't policed so people just take advantage.

it's really shitty - that's probably why there are more threads now as they aren't 'policed'

I agree. It's outrageous. Why dont they just sit there dribbling in their wheelchairs that the government pays for, instead of cluttering up your nice active threads about really important interesting things.

I will chain myself to the doors of mums net towers in protest and salute you for bringing this out into the light. At last someone had the courage.

you only have to read the crap on the latest one, and yes I don't give a fig if this is deemed a thread about a thread, it isn't it is about people being jealous of people like my dd or riv's who can't walk and never will

Did I say I wasn't interested in them no, people are just spouting the usual crap and trying to justify why non disabled people/drivers are parking in disabled bays that really pisses me off.

I hope you're suitably grateful for the way you're spoiled Riven

Today I parked in a disabled space while I went to the cash point. There were lots of other free disabled spaces. I told my 12 yo to move the car if anyone said anything. Grin

Spero I have namechanged recently, I was so fed up with the anti sn stuff on here, it was that or leave, so I realise you don't know my background, if you did you would know that I have a dd who is severely disabeld

I think I'm being prickly and assumed you were saying you were sick of the subject Seven and borderslass, rather than sick of the crap spouted on them.

I apologise.

It's ok apology accepted, I have a DS with ASD among other problems don't have a blue badge but subject close to my heart.

Sorry, I can't be expected to know a massive back story from the simple wording of a thread title. It reads like you don't think it's interesting or important. So I reacted to that.

Me too Spero, I suppose that's a good example of how the threads go because I just expected this one to be negative.

Sorry - I started one of those (the first one - was on here early today). But I started it out of Shock that a council could / would start charging for blue badge parking, not to start a bunfight.
