Petition Make disability discrimination a specific criminal offence

Make disability discrimination a specific criminal offence with harsher penalties.

More details

People with disabilities have so much to deal with medical appointments and day to day struggles that others don’t experience. I believe that people who discriminate them because of who they are should face harsher actions. I’ve been discriminated many times for just being who I am it’s wrong.
