During the Budget on Wednesday, Rachel Reeves spoke of many things, but what grabbed my attention when reflecting on some of the announcements that affected disabled people was the removal of luxury cars from the Motability Scheme.
What drew me in was how the Chancellor made me feel that, due to my disabilities, luxuries were no longer allowed. Whether this is how she intended it or not, it made me feel my disability made me less worthy.
With lots of talk of Motability........
