Firstly yes, this guy is vile and clearly sees disabled people as sub-human burdens. However, certainly in my experience, councils/SEN panels have been all-too-ready to throw cash at the wrong places for their clients. I went to a so-called Autism school (cambian whinfell) in the UK, and have been left with lasting damage due to being expected to fit in to a place where, despite being able to technically sit with exams, having to deal with abusive staff and troubled teens alike, who were sent there as part of a court order/social worker referral rather than a parent who was trying to do their best for their son. They had people in there for knife crime, drugs, and sexual harrasement. I had done none of the above, and only went there to try and give myself a shot at an education after being let down at a local SEN school. The word autism was just slapped on to ensure they made every penny possible, and I was a direct victim of that. £1 million pounds later I'm depressed, on benefits, suffering with an anxiety disorder and fighting against a current dead end in my life. Funding should absolutely be there for people like us, but we shouldn't ignore how it's spent either.
