A lot of promises made by Joan Burton TD and the Labour Party but only one line on people with disabilities there needs to be more on disability we are worth more more then one line ?
Of Course We are Worth then More line and a lot of more respect with that.
The labour party and Joan Burton has to work harder if they want people with disabilities to vote for the their party
We want more then just one line we want to be evolved in the process on our own lives and Decisions Made about us ” Nothing About Us With out Us”.
