The law is suddenly different for disabled people:
I looked on GOV.UK for support, but it doesn't explain how a disabled person can report discrimination or harassment — especially when the police aren't interested.
When I'm ganged up on, harassed, targeted, sabotaged, and ostracised, I'm told it's a civil matter. But when three organisations made false statements about me to the police — that suddenly became a police matter.
Recently, a false Community Protection Notice was issued against me. It was unsigned and undated, and when I contacted the police data department for ombudsman and appeal information, I was met with silence.
All I did was speak the truth — publicly — about what I experienced. I left a support group because it was no longer safe for me to stay. After that, statements were made and used against me.
Why is it only treated seriously when the accusations are against me — but not when I report what they've done to me?
Why is my experience as a disabled woman being dismissed as a “civil matter” — when the actions of others are taken as criminal?
The law shouldn't be different for disabled people. But it feels like it is.
Can someone from a UK police department please explain how this is justice?
Thanks,
