**** There are many ULO's/DPO's and Trade Unions in this Country like to promote DAN, this is the same for some charities, public bodies and Government departments too, who say that they have 'consulted'with DAN, but they seem to forget that 'promoting DAN and actually 'consultation' are too totally different things.... They are an 'ocean-apart'.... In my experiences of being involved in DAN now since 1995, I have seen loads of 'token' gestures by all the above mentioned to actually inclusion of the 'real' Disabled Peoples 'voices'... There is a lot of pretence and some of these people within the above mentioned would make great 'window dressors' at Harrods.
DAN is fed-up of all this 'spin' and will continue to fight for basic human right and civil liberities within DAN's FreeOurPeople campaign.... DAN, rightly, are very causious who they choose and say are ''Our' allies. DPO's/ULO's and others need to understand what it means to become an ally of the 'grassroots' Disabled Peoples' Direct Action Network (DAN).
As I said above there is a difference between 'promoting' and 'consultation' with DAN.
There are too many Charities and ULO's who out-there you are still falsely claming to respresent 'grassroots' Disabled People's 'voices'. DAN knows who you are... 'We' have you under DAN surveillance... You are still on the DAN radar, so watch out DAN is about!!!
DAN is 'not-dead', as some people are made to believe, with given-out the false propaganda.... DAN is 'Alive-and-Kicking'... So watch this space... If you and/your DPO's/ULO's and 'real-allies' want to join a network of other Disabled People to 'FreeOurPeople' then you'll be more than welcome.
'Nothing About Us, Without Us'.
