Clip from January 2022, @mark_bonnar appeared on Celebrity Catchphrase supporting @actionforme. He explained that he backs the charity because #MECFS is very misunderstood, very underfunded and affects several people he knows personally.

We’ve been rolling out air filters across London schools, all delivered by electric vehicles (Mango Logistics), fully installed with pre-set timers. Now we’re looking to bring this to Bristol. As the @bristolgreenparty.bsky.social shares our goal of cleaner, healthier classrooms, we’d love to talk.

Dr Clare Gerada has been appointed a crossbench peer in the House of Lords and is now a baroness — I’ve put together a short thread about her involvement in #MECFS. twitter-thread.com/t/1981309222...

Surprised nobody’s talking about this on here (lots on X)… This is Simon Wessely’s wife and she was an active accomplice in his mistreatment of #pwME #MECFS #GreatestMedicalScandal #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis @georgemonbiot.bsky.social @natashadevon.bsky.social

ME/CFS is a devastating condition that has long been denied, dismissed, psychologised and underdiagnosed. Research is at last starting to catch up with it, with glimmers of hope for those who have been left untreated for so long. There's a huge BUT coming ...🧵 www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Tomorrow, Tue 7 Oct, the Welsh Senedd Business Committee will consider allocating 15 Oct to a Severe/Very Severe ME debate. It has a good chance of being selected. #pwME in Wales please help, email your MS and ask them to back MS Adam Price’s Motion. Find your 1/2 record.senedd.wales/Motion/8884

Seconded! @zackpolanski.bsky.social has done a great job raising this in interviews recently. Greens are the only party w/ a policy Re: ongoing covid harms incl. #LongCovid although @johnmcdonnellmp.bsky.social has started work on something. Hope @sianberry.bsky.social & other Greens will join him.

Eligibility for an NHS Covid booster has been HUGELY restricted this Autumn. Studies show that both acute & long-term impacts of Covid are substantially WORSE than flu on almost every measure. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan... So why are the government offering so much LESS protection for Covid?

Thank you for really listening to caller @annemarie1.bsky.social & as you succinctly said: "The short termism of prioritising the economy has led to the economy suffering because there have been so many people infected (w Covid) & are now unable to work". @zackpolanski.bsky.social #BoldPolitics

lol this joker saying families on benefits “aren’t engaging with the state” Obviously he’s never been on benefits as the state are breathing down your neck when you are!!! @natashadevon.bsky.social

Coming up from 6pm on LBC (Sat 4th October) - With people already trying to foster division and hatred following Thursdays terror attack, how do we promote unity? - Why are so many British people long term sick? (Non judgmental asking) - Should we legalise all drugs?

Violet Affleck is to the Covid movement what Greta Thunberg is to climate. Both represent the next generation, are articulate, focused, & grounded in science. That scares people. And there's a gendered aspect to all the vitriol they face

I do think we urgently need to talk about how right-wing media discourse on Violet Affleck sounds basically indistinguishable from how a lot of "leftist"/"socialists"/"communists" talk about the pandemic and disability (including how that discourse is often tinted with misogyny)

A plea to the #CovidConscious & #LongCovid communities: Don’t use ableist language, imply people with mental illness can’t make valid choices about Covid mitigations, or misappropriate psychological terms. Not saying I’m perfect - reminding myself too. #VioletAffleck #HealthyIndoorAir #MaskUp

We appreciate Violet Affleck's advocacy for clean air. This is the correct response to the reality of the situation and a response that would be widely beneficial.

Pleased to sign and will continue to promote when I can

Seems obvious that @greenparty.org.uk should be signing this global pledge for healthy indoor air. A natural extension of their work on #EllasLaw and their excellent #Covid19 & #LongCovid policy. @nataliegreenpeer.bsky.social @sianberry.bsky.social @zackpolanski.bsky.social @bluelumin.bsky.social

A few days out from #UNGA80, I wanted to reflect on the session we took part in and the media responses since. Mount Sinai was one of the 150 organizations that signed the global pledge to advocate for healthy indoor air. The event itself featured four panels of speakers who 1/

🧵A few notes for all the haters bitching about Violet Affleck’s speech to the U.N.: She’s not a kid. She’s a 19-year old woman. She’s not unqualified. She’s currently a student at Yale University, which has a 4.5% acceptance rate, and is pursuing a public health degree. (1/4)

All the projection going on towards Violet Affleck right now… She is a fierce young woman who clearly scares a lot of people. Keep going, Violet 💜 (also lol at the people comparing her to Greta Thunberg as if that’s an insult 😅)

Keir Starmer's aides are reportedly telling him not to go to the COP30 climate conference, because Reform would attack him for it. Yes, they might. And he should wear it as a badge of honour. Standing up for humanity, for science and a habitable planet. Where's the hazard in that?

“Immunity debt” doesn’t exist, but immune damage does. Children are sicker now than pre-pandemic – many with disabling chronic illnesses. This cycle of harm can only stop when we accept reality – there’s no off ramp without cleaning classroom air. www.independent.ie/opinion/comm...

We are pleased to confirm that @sammiemc.bsky.social Founder & CEO, LCK, will give evidence to the UK COVID Inquiry on the morning of Wednesday 1st October. covid19.public-inquiry.uk/hearings/chi...

I was talking about it again on Thursday, reflecting "We have just had a very long debate focusing on those digital safety issues, but, somehow, even despite the Covid pandemic, we have rather less focus on biological virus risks" hansard.parliament.uk/lords/2025-0...

Conference can also be attended remotely. I recommend this option for this who don't want to catch or spread airborne diseases. Conferences (not necessarily #GreenParty ones) are notorious spreading events and there's no information about the air quality at the venue.

#Savannah #vsME update. A good MDT which ran over to twice the length of time allocated. Dr Weir and I were both invited, spoke at length and were heard. The absence of NHS ME specialists _anywhere_ in the UK is the biggest probem for every ICB, including Lewisham and Greenwich.

🧵 Savannah update - please share widely. Formerly known as Gigi, Savannah (S) is in Room 4, Ward 1, Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Woolwich with very severe ME. All her energy is being spent on calling for help. There is a virtual MDT 10.30 tomorrow. S has asked that Dr Weir and I be invited to join 1/2

We literally have the science deniers all over the Refuk conference and still 'enlightened' people cannot see that theym themselves are following that narrative on #Covid, by acting as though it is not a threat - by inviting people to be infected at their gatherings! @zackpolanski.bsky.social

New leader @zackpolanski.bsky.social is one of the only politicians highlighting the ongoing impact of #COVID19 & #LongCovid on our nation's health & economy. While Reform spread vaccine misinformation & Labour sit on their hands @greenparty.org.uk demand action! #CleanAirNow #MasksInHealthcare

Bringing these two results together. Labour and Reform are splitting the fascist vote and letting the Greens in! This opens up a lot more possibilities if the Green Party is bold enough. Which is why they need @zackpolanski.bsky.social leading...

The PCR positivity map is out, national positivity has remained at 7.25%, and what we see this week is an intensification in the same problem hotspots as last week. jamestindall.info/skeuomorphol... 1/8

Covid numbers are rising and we trying to get the word out. Here are the first two billboards so far this summer and I’ll be working to keep putting them out well into the fall. If you want to help me continue the campaign any help is appreciated. gofund.me/fc751c58

Zack is right to highlight the impact of #LongCovid on our working age population. Why isn't this talked about more? With basically no public health mitigations, sickness will increase. We need: 💨Clean air 😷Masks in healthcare 🧪Accelerated research 🏥Support for patients @zackpolanski.bsky.social

This is such a huge, scandalous, story, it needs more time to consider its many shocking facets. What we have heard so far is only the tip of the iceberg of injustice. A specific patient group knowingly left for dead by NHS Execs. Not everyone with #ME has a loving family #JusticeForME #ThePlanForME

Thanks to Emily Dugan and the Sunday Times for exposing this aspect of how Maeve died from ME. A Devon County Council cover up. Maeve was taking them to judical review, dying in the attempt. Devon County Council may have learnt nothing from the inquest. I have learnt a lot about them. 1/4

Thank you @natashadevon.bsky.social for hosting another excellent segment on #MECFS 💙 And thank you to @swastrosarah.bsky.social , @franhaddock.bsky.social & the other contributors for getting our stories out there. #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis is a serious disease that can happen to anyone.

That masking is not mandatory in all medical facilities is an abomination.

I'm standing for Policy Coordinator. I was diagnosed with post viral fatigue when I was 9 following a virus. I was ill, partially bed bound, over 10yrs. I campaigned for ME/chronic fatigue to be taken seriously. I was against PACE trials & graded exercise. I stand with those affected by long COVID.
