(Mike please let this reply from myself to Simone Aspies and my responses to 
her go through Danmail)

Hi Simone

I know what you mean about solicitors and barristers. I have experienced and 
reserached this myself with numerous legal-advocates across the UK and has 
you are well informed they all have discriminatory 'disablist' attitudes and 
behaviour towards all disabled people. None of them are implementing their 
statutory-duties, under the DDA 1995 and HRA 1998 and getting away with it 
and if you make complainst as a disabled person, then you are 'struck-off', 
then you are 'black-balled' by the rest of the legal professions., then, if 
you...'COMPLAIN', as you are to their 'regulation-bodies', then you know how 
they respond to complaints from us 'crips' ?

Are you informed that I have taken up these issues up with the Law Society, 
Bar Council and Legal Services Ombudsman and Her Majesty's Court 
Service(HMCS) Customer Services Unit, but I'm getting no-where with all my 
complaints and human and civil rights protests and I am being 'swallowed-up' 
and 'spit-out' by 'the-(legal)-system' for 'whistle-blowing' about the 
legal-advocacy system.

As many of you know at this present time I am fighting alone, with support 
of(from) Joe Whittaker, Navin Kikabhai, Dr Aylott, David Glenister, Hazel 
Pottage, Roy Webb, Dr Linda Misek-Falkoff(UN Disability Convention), Richard 
Light, Rachel Hurst, Mike Higgins and other supporters for my basic 
'freedoms and liberty', with threats of being committed to prison for my 
basic human and civil rights work, for having 'integrity' and 'honesty', as 
a neurodiverse disabled person and keeping to my professional 
'code-of-ethics' I was educated 'to-do' at University, as a Youth and 
Community Worker and Social Scientist, but I am paying the consquences for 
'whistle-blowing' now, with all the 'ABUSE' I am experiencing by all the 
public-bodies, legal-advocates and the Court in the UK.

I am back at Court soon and I my 'circle-of-friends/support' are struggling 
in finding any legal advocacy for my next court hearing and I've got 22 days 
and counting, then I am back at court and DJ Besford is going to make 
decisions in my case, even if I got no legal-advocates to represent me.

What does this say about how us disabled people are not being afforded 
protection of basic human and civil rights?

As a member, campaigner, advocate, educator and researcher within the UN 
Disability Convention I am hoping that Dr Linda Misek-Falkoff, Richard Light 
and other peer-advocates and collegues are going to give me their full 
support and backing, because I need it and I hope my 'user-led' research, 
yours and others is taken very seriously and responded to by thr UN 
Disability Convention, because I have put muself at 'great-risk' in 
'whistle-blowing' in my case and 'speaking-out' for other disabled peopl, 
especailly those with 'neurodiversity' around basic human and civil rights 
which are being serious violated and infringed within the UK and especilaly 
within the 'legal-(advocacy)-system', as you are well informed.

'We'(professional) disabled people who are 'whistle-blowing' are not being 
protected under s55 (victimisation) Disability Discrimination Act 1995, 
Whistle-blowing Act and other UK, EU and International basic human and civil 
rights legislation.

I was advised by a legal advocate, working for the defence(NHS Trusts) in my 
case, who is one of the good-guys, from Hempson's solicitors, that I should 
ask Dr Linda Misek-Falkoff and Dr Richard Light, from the UN to write to 
District Judge Besford urgently in my in my case. I know that Linda has done 
this in the past to the District Judge. I don't know if Richard has, but I 
know him and Rachel Hurst are well informed of my case.

I can't do it all alone and that's why I have asked the Roy Webb, Adrian 
Whyatt for us to form the 'working-group', which I mentioned in my email 
yesterday within the NCIL and BCODP and other interested  individuals, 
parties and groups.

Roy has suggested we organise a meeting a NCIL in about April time.  You 
need to speak with Roy and Adrian, about this and I will include them and 
others in within your email.

I will send a copy of my reply to your email throughout the Local, 
National(UK) and Global disabled people's, survivors, inclusion and 
independent living movements for them to respond too.

Can I ask you which solicitors firm are you refereing too?
