      INTERNATIONAL DAY OF PEOPLE WITH A DISABILITY

      John Howard’s Government is making it harder for People with a Disability to:

      Live – through changes to DSP
      Be employed – through employment reforms
      Keep providing care – through changes to carers payments and benefits
      See a Doctor –through changes to medicare

      It’ s “un-Australian”!

      Bring your own gear – hat, water, umbrella, banner, your voices and enthusiasm!!

      11.00 am to 12.30
      December 3
      King George Square
      (Anne Street Side)
      For further information phone: 07 3366 7066

      I lent my wheelchair accessible bus to a friend so I didn’t go. Saw it on the news, sadly didn’t look to be to many turned up. I guess the rainy weather kept a few from going. Majority of protestors were carers. They said 1 in 5 people have a disability. That’s alot of votes.
