Demo of Disabled People challenging The Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill
The Demonstration on Tuesday 26th February 2008 on Westminster Bridge was an enormous success, with 50 people along the south side of the bridge, many of them in wheelchairs. There were cameras galore, with a TV documentary team and journalists fighting to interview the demonstrators. Placards included "Don't Disable My Libido" and "It's Hard Enough as it Is". Women wearing Gordon Brown masks carried placards saying "Listen To The Clients" and "We will do everything in our power that...the needs of disabled people are properly recognised" Gordon Brown PMQs 23-01-07. The demonstrators were joined by the SFC Board, the English Collective of Prostitutes and the International Union of Sex Workers, carrying red umbrellas.

Demonstrators were treated to tea in the Marriott afterwards, where we heard that all clauses relating to prostitution had been dropped from the Bill.

We continue our campaign to force out the section banning extreme pornography from the Bill.
