Patrick Stewart attended drama school thanks to his local government council. Taxpayers paid for Stewart’s acting education, which is exactly how it should be!
Fund the arts and fund education!

All this moaning about PIP as if disabled people are rolling in cash. Price a specialist wheelchair, seating, pressure cushion, splints, boots, adaptations & transport. Many families fundraise or rely on charities for essentials. That’s the “high life” you’re sneering at.
