A tearful disability activist has claimed she was left stranded on a train platform after rail staff branded her 'rude' and denied her vital ramp access.
Anna Landre, a wheelchair user, was set to travel from London's Liverpool Street station on May 18.

Describing the interaction as 'very abled-mansplaining', Ms Landre took to X to outline the stressful ordeal, adding: 'I firmly but politely told him that I know the law and did not need a lecture.
