This is nothing more than a woke attempt to exclude people and I am disappointed that the Conservative government is actually taking this woke nonsense seriously.

Maybe we should have a list of all those with a disability that leads to hurt, misinterpretation and OTT reactions. Then we could just put them all on ‘ignore’ and everyone would be happy.

Well, if you don’t know by now, Hugh, I really wouldn’t worry about it (pat, pat).  |
The bill has cross party support, it's only being put through via the Conservatives because they happen to be in power at the moment.
Unilaterally excluding or ignoring disabled people is morally questionable and could have legal consequences.
The aim is to be inclusive and for everyone to treat each other with kindness and respect, both on and offline.

Yes, it's obviously not always neccessary to meet someone to hate them, what they stand for and what they are all about, particularly in extreme cases. Are you suggesting that this individual is not worthy of hatred for what he's done/is doing?
