Reform UK Deputy Leader wants to scrap the Equality Act

Kall

(1) Richard Tice MP Flag gb on X: "We must fire all these EDI woke jobs and scrap the 2010 Equality Act which is so damaging to growth and productivity" / X

I honestly think this lot will come into power in 5 years time, and they want to scrap the equality act, which protects Autistic and other disabled people from discrimination. This means, people will be allowed to treat the disabled anyway they like and employers won't have to accomdate adjustments.

This is dangerous, and I am quite worried if they get in 5 years time, disabled people will suffer.

  • I'm not really worried about them to be honest, I think a lot of what they say is just hot air and trying to get in the media, it's 5 years until the next election and thats a very long time in politics and we will be in a very different place, for better or worse depending on your point of view. It could also be aimed at pushing Tory leadership candidates further to the right, making them even more unelectable for many voters.
