The Truth about Miss Deaf UK

I just found this very, very, very uncomfortable to watch this event on See Hear. Clearly, hearing power took over Miss Deaf UK. I felt really sick to see 10 Deaf-impaired celebrities who are naive about the Deaf community being treated like royalists while John Smith's gig cancelled.. Bobby Darvo encouraged the mostly Deaf audience to sing the Sinatra classic New York, New York... good Deaf awareness(!)

I hadn't noticed it was under social care when I wrote about it on my blog http://www.finllfixit.co.uk/ till someone pointed it out to me.
The Guardian messed up again as pointed out by Grumpy old deafies site http://www.grumpyoldeafies.com/2007/04/oft_to_look_at_30000.html

OI, Ashton! Why did you stop blogging? Is it because you have been eaten up by Bebo? I know it is true! DIS-GRACEFUL! x x
