What the petition asks
The equalities act doesn't go far enough. Here's why, it's not supporting disabled people to live the life they want. It's not including the disabled people who it affects and this changing creates a sense of understanding and inclusive behaviour from the government.
The house of lords have proven in their review of the 2010 equality act has uncovered the fundamental failure and damage it has caused (https://tinyurl.com/zmkzlph). This petition is here to hold the government to its word when they say "the new strategy for disabled people will support all phases of their life with opportunity and fulfilment".
