-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Andrew, I am not trying to argue that no blind people should get the higher rate mobility payment. I just feel that it would not be right for all blind and visually impaired people to get it. Cheers.

Hi Derrick yes up until a few months ago I couldn't walk around without using crutches, now you try using these at the sametime of using a white stick. now this is me, for other people not everyone can get a guide dog, not everyone can use a long cane either, I have just finished with my mobility officer and he was saying that he has four people on his books that cannot get a guide dog for one reason or another, three of these cannot use a long cane, so how the hell are these people going to get about?. I don't think what Alex said and others was necessary it was a bit hard. I am not going to say anymore on the subject from now. - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Derek Hornby" <derek.hornby_uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, March 10, 2007 2:22 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Please help? > Hi Andrew > You said > > "Hi Alex, So are you blind? do you find it easy to get around?" > > If one has guide dog, or long cane, or other mobility aid, there is > no problem now is there? > > Regards, > Derek > > e-mail: derek.hornby_uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- > ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] > ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: > ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > ** and in the Subject line type > ** unsubscribe > ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the > ** immediately-following link:- > ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] > ** or send a message, to > ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq > ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP Universal 2.0.6 iQIVAwUBRfLri3l17GM8Q3VgAQhFIw//a36xW5IUxXH1SHWxUvc9lNENImp8ujRC uQcQgmZPemJ5jnN+fcZ+lki+HvpIjnCp8QCuksmF6Q4viRmroUJil2O6nHjFBkhk jnT1p4m+OXIvhvA2ePg02cBHX3oiUC73alOsiIrZh0FoxweBlYuh2VD6HlZgM302 0GsrJiFAeqFGYABvX2vxKwVtX2uuIxFyut2pnPaipoqhlubebDgguH7X2Axe50lC UMsG6xxJiItXd1OKrVgddm4gcC7lPaELpZHTJ6AZbIhtpAnOcKSE84Yo+MhC0AQp U67DTklqT0SMVE7dekU0GXKJTIddkOjtXWtx0mmMVnJjBVmMhJ7gAaT/+UbV77qg a7zEHvEdc7ShJMbm1cMeX7U6/xRiD9TS0gA6l1sQgOoLrhJ7GI+k9HMR8AFpJkNG QQNCr9CUOB4ZJLzyeoqeAgBHIp7TNfm/O/niDvH/1S+H8hjXA5HoniKhsel9OUGJ ZnPLbOQBzjLp4YGV4k6WHDH7cBTGLtNpFkJJjKbhwgY2Zkn4D3HwFa7fDVS7JN7h vaW0U1ypjgMzyZc5Gi62ciWrZLym2pJsMhjwsmFzxXq21AP4BqgCwGQ4WVpfKskP nc71COTA9ln98qVs3xErGx2M1MOBHrnXPZ1uspXZOW2jVRRSpk+00MooCyZnz6VF FEGmxxPw6mY= =QJL/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
