Two faceless, white males in grey suits and with ‘Daily Express’ name badges around their necks, are standing either side of a smiling white woman who is typing at a computer wearing a Scope name badge. The two men are also holding pieces of paper with ‘75% of disabled are fakes’ and ‘Disabled are all work-shy scroungers’ on them. On the floor at their feet is a copy of Disability News Service with the headline: ‘Scope partner up with hostile Daily Express’. The first man is saying: “So that’s agreed – we portray Scope as the real voice of disability …”. The second man adds: “And we continue to rubbish those so-called disabled activists!” In the background is one of Scope’s old plaster collection figures – a young girl wearing a leg brace and a collection box with ‘Help the Spastics’ printed upon it. She is thinking: “And just as I thought that we were making some progress!”.

Crippen asks why has Scope partnered with ‘hostile’ Daily Express?
