UK politics has a number of problems with accessibility for non-majority groups... we're familiar with issues around ethnicity & gender, but are less clear about how ableism has effectively barred disabled people from our political institutions;
the disproportionally low number of disabled people in politics, is not only a crisis of representation, it also means policy is shaped by the prejudices & incomplete knowledge of the able.

Make sure you're assessing your situation: What would you do if power went out due to the utility shutting it off to reduce fire risk or due to too many people using the grid at the same time? Need to replace batteries? Have enough ice packs on hand? What's your emergency plan, esp if there's a fire & you have to evacuate during a heat wave?
If you're abled, ask disabled friends if they'd like help and what form they want that help to take in an emergency.
In case there ends up being a wildfire during a heatwave or there's another natural disaster that affects you as a disabled person, The Partnership for Inclusive Disaster Strategies has a hotline you should put in your phonebook.
I constantly see things like ''if you're not going to protests for this issue, you're part of the problem'' or ''don't call yourself an ally if you don't do XYZ''.
Like, I can barely get out of bed on a good day, the best I can do is share posts on social media, if that's not ''good enough'' for you go fuck yourself.
