I’m going to be on BBC South East News tonight, mainly talking about @womensprize.bsky.social #Discoveries2026 I fear, though, that I rambled on about other stuff that I’ve completely forgotten about now. 🤦🏾‍♀️ PLEASE, make my sacrifice worth it by starting on your #Discoveries entry now. 😅😭🤣

A real tragedy our historic Wedgwood factory in UK is on a slow down. I think we need to give the President of USA a gift from their legacy and reissue the Blue Wedgwood- Am I Not a Man and Brother…

Wonderful hearing @laylamccay.bsky.social speaking today about the evidence on #LGBTQ+ staff & patient experience - providing data for change - and speaking about great work of @nhsconfed.org on providing platforms for tackling inequality

PREACH ! Like amen tf

Palestinians and Israelis both. Audre Lorde was so right, “Unless one lives and loves in the trenches, it is difficult to remember that the war against dehumanization is ceaseless.”

Hold a bit of cardboard that says "Palestine action" and you'll get arrested. Assault police officers in the name of racism and you get away with it.

The Mayor & MOPAC stopped funding Southall Black Sisters lifesaving service for victim-survivors of violence - one of London's only organisations helping migrant & minoritised women & children with nowhere else to turn. Sign our petition to demand the Mayor funds it! shorturl.at/rfGCw

Today Southall Black Sisters battled the tube strike to be there at City Hall when I asked the Mayor why their funding had been cut - putting the survival of their vital service in danger. Sadly, it was an incredibly disappointing response from Labour & Sadiq Khan. Here's why⬇️

The ECHR is a British creation that protects all. It's shocking that other parties such as the Tories and Reform talk about leaving it, rewriting it or watering it down, Liberal Democrats stand firm

The Lib Dems have repeatedly called on the government to place further sanctions on Israeli ministers, Prime Minister Netanyahu and his cabinet. Today, I asked if Foreign Office Minister Hamish Falconer MP would deem them responsible for the famine and continuing killings in Gaza.

⏰ Disabilities don’t start at 9:30am - so neither should disabled bus passes. 🗳️ Tonight, I’m leading the charge in Parliament, pushing for a vote to scrap these unfair time restrictions that create a postcode lottery. 🚌 Ask your MP to vote for New Clause 2 [NC2].

Happy Birthday! X 🥳🎉😍

Today we celebrate #EmergencyServicesDay by thanking the 2 million people working and volunteering across the NHS and emergency services. Every role matters - from call handlers and paramedics to technicians and care assistants, on the frontlines and behind the scenes. Thank you for all you do. 🌟💙🚑

This....was SO cool. I hate it here.

The Liberal Democrats will continue to fight for the change people are crying out for, from easing the cost of living to protecting the NHS to rebuilding Britain’s influence abroad.

@bethanyblack.bsky.social - well back in 1971ish -even I remember (as a pre-teen) watching the awesome PeterStraker in Girl Stroke Boy -nothing new under the sun.

Tables turning: my birthday week & our kid is going to be reading to me! With much thanks to @dorothykoomson.bsky.social #AudioBook @thetimes.com @blackartcultureedu.bsky.social @britishlibrary.bsky.social @royalliteraryfund.bsky.social

Service provision at any cost. The fact that the cost is borne by the individual; physical or mental health ruined, relationship breakdown and even substance misuse is not really of concern yo the NHS. Only when the job isn't done does the institution care.

Another conversation today with someone who may have to stop work because adjustments are not considered reasonable. Ma excellent clinician. Why can’t we be flexible with our workforce?

We're only making clans of Nigels

Great speech by Raskin. Also, nice of Farage to show up dressed like a 60s Batman villain.

It’s ugly, but it needs to be made clear, that Elon Musk is a white supremacist and he will continue to use his ridiculously over-compensated wealth to bankroll any political party in predominantly white countries that promote white primacy. He is the living ghost of apartheids past.

The same ‘people’ abusing others & putting up fl*gs are the m ones who ruined their (and our) lives in 2016 by listening to the f-wit they’re listening to now. They’ve learnt nothing & are doing this to us again. Also, more people are opposing it than we think. We need to keep opposing this cr*p.

Tories pledge to get all oil and gas out of North Sea www.bbc.com/news/article... Perhaps Kemi-Bad-Enoch is after all more influenced by her Nigerian childhood & climate policies of Nigeria than she is letting on? #NigerDelta #NigeriaPetroleumIndustryAct2021

Well @mancunianmedic.bsky.social fact most women will know their attacker-Lesson from history is racism is easily harnessed. With Lynching of innocent Black men & boys being “justified “ in order to protect virtue of white womanhood. #Emmett #Kelso #NottingHillRiots #MajbrittMorrison #StrangeFruit

An hour after Ivana Nikoline Brønlund, born in Nuuk to Greenlandic parents who has played for the Greenlandic handball team, gave birth to her daughter, Aviaja-Luuna, the local municipality took the infant into foster care. Racism and colonialism continue on. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

Gender pension gap equates to £7,600 a year, say union leaders. Despite equality laws women continue to lose. Women punished for child bearing and caring responsibilities. Lower pension results in greater insecurity and anxiety.
