Britain’s largest national student union has told attendees of its annual conference they would face “consequences” for cheering and clapping because these forms of expression exclude deaf people.

Instead of clapping, the students were advised to use “jazz hands” – a gesture when people wave their hands in the air – as it’s believed to be more inclusive to people with hearing problems.

They've got to be kidding

So the deaf person can observe "jazz hands", but they can not observe clapping?

This is so stupid it seems like satire
