Trolls SHAMED for attacking this MP candidate for being disabled.

Political activist Jody McIntyre is going to take on Jess Phillips come the General Election, & ableist trolls aren't going to stop him!
Right, so I’ve made several videos now covering various independent candidates as a movement seems to be building across the country to challenge the traditional political party model in favour of local picked, locally supported candidates standing for what is right and what is needed on their patch. One of the latest people to announce their intention to stand as an independent is a chap called Jody McIntyre, who is planning on standing in Birmingham Yardley against Labour Friend of Israel Jess Phillips.
Jody is disabled, he has cerebral palsy, which is often characterised by muscle weakness, tremors and obviously has a knock on effect to other things that require muscle movement, especially fine motor skills, such as speech, but can also affect sight and touch and hearing. There can also be associated learning difficulties, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that people with the condition are any less switched on to the world around us, than those of us without this condition, so if Jody wants to be an MP, well, just listen to the guy and decide for yourself, but when we need more disabled representation in parliament, because the needs of the long term sick and disabled are not being met, are not being heard are not being listen to, we need more people like Jody prepared to stand not fewer, yet the abuse from online trolls he’s getting, just goes to prove what a pervading abuse issue ableism is and it doesn’t get talked about enough.
Right, so Jody McIntyre wants to stand against Jess Phillips as an independent for parliament and despite his disability there is absolutely no reason he can’t do that, but don’t take my word for it, listen to him:
Now you tell me he doesn’t know exactly what he’s talking about, isn’t saying stuff that so many of us are also saying, regarding Gaza, Israel, the Labour Party position on that and the absurdity that still, not one single member of Labour Friends of Israel has resigned from that group? His video there was heartfelt, it was meaningful, it was eloquent and certainly his speech difficulties were not holding him back one iota. He’s been to Gaza, he’s seen it with his own eyes and actually he’s seen a whole lot more than that, because not only has he faced abuse online in response to his video there and others he’s put out, he’s faced it here too.
In 2010, Jody McIntyre, was on an anti tuition fee protest, the Lib Dems big betrayal you might recall when he was pulled from his wheelchair by the police where he claimed he was hit by a police baton and dragged across a road. The complaint he made to the IPCC was only partially upheld, having taken as long at it had the watchdog agreed the police had used excessive force by dragging him across the road and that he might have been assaulted, but it was now too late to prosecute. It was claimed by the police that he was dragged from his wheelchair for his own safety, but on what planet can you possibly believe that taking a wheelchair user from their wheelchair is ever in their best interests?
