The current cuts are still filtering through with 1/3 of disabled people losing their mobility car.

Meanwhile, Tory ministers think it appropriate to 'joke' about what they are doing.
How many people NEED the mobility car. Times have moved on. Transport by taxis or buses is now easier. That's what the rest of us have to do.
