• I was horrified and triggered to the point of a panic attack by the announcement that neurodiverse people were going to be removed from the NDIS.
• This is wrong and discriminatory
• I believe that the Australian Government must act for ALL Australians and not create two classes of Australians: the acceptable, privileged and healthy and the despisedand disabled. This is Nazi Eugenics territory and I can not believe that an ALPGovernment –the party which has traditionally claimed to be the friend of thefinancially and socially insecure - could even contemplate attacking andimpoverishing its own citizens.

Robodebt demonstrated the shortcomings of any automation of assessment. Despite the clear evidence of Robodebt’s systemic failure and the human cost borne by its victims, the new provisions seem determined to make the same mistake over again without young learning from previous total failure AI serves nobody except vast global parent companies like Palantir.

• If a humane and caring Australian system of public governance and a generous and relevant scheme of provision for funding disability support is seen as unaffordable, it is time to properly tax and excise the resources sector that parasites off the Australian people, especially disabled, physically and mentally impacted Australians. Then there would be funds enough for the NDIS to sustain itself into the future.

I can not believe that an ALP government could seriously plan for and organise a system in which people with a legitimate need are denied appropriate services and support.
