I am dismayed that @BPSOfficial a professional body which holds human welfare as a core value, seems unable as an organisation to make a statement joining the growing calls of many others for an immediate ceasefire on humanitarian grounds in Gaza (1/5)
Open letter asking the @BPSOfficial to issue a statement calling for a ceasefire in Gaza.
“As psychologists, and as fellow humans, we cannot be
silent whilst a genocide unfolds before us.”

What a great day it was today spent with the psychology trainees at the university.
Great to give them an insight and have discussions with them and answer their questions. The future for my peers is in safe hands, and I got to tell them some of my jokes👍💙
Rishi Sunak's authority is "beginning to crumble" - Andrew Marr
@REWearmouth, @Freddiejh8 and @AndrewMarr9 discuss Sunak’s struggle to control a divided Tory party as the prospect of electoral defeat looms.

Living with epilepsy can be tough, and we could all use someone to talk to now & then.
Volunteering is a rewarding way to meet people on a similar journey to you & you’ll help to make sure that people affected by epilepsy receive the support they deserve.

Even I'm bored of pointing this out, but British politics broke when Brexit lies were presented by almost all of the British media as an equal & opposite counterpoint to reality, gravity, evidence & expertise. None of it can be fixed until the idiocy of Brexit is acknowledged.
Beaches filled with raw sewage, 87 year old citizens waiting 14 hours for ambulances, energy bills running into thousands. Jesus Christ what will it take
petrol = going up
bills = going up
house costs = going up
rent costs = going up
minimum wage= stays the same
universal credit = being cut
make it make sense
When you hear Rishi Sunak propose a £200 *loan* as a solution for households facing energy bills rocketing by £693, remember:
He's the richest MP, who last night in Parliament pushed through a tax cut for bankers worth £1,000,000,000 a year.
Sunak's on their side, not yours.
Conservative MPs tonight voted to hand bankers a tax cut worth £1,000,000,000 each year.
This is while they're pushing ahead with their National Insurance tax hike on workers.
Don't believe their lies on "levelling up". They're busy punching down.
Quite amazing to hear Conservative ministers today talking about their mission to ‘save forgotten communities’ as if we live in a parallel universe where they haven’t spent the last 12 years brutally cutting their way through those communities
Boris Johnson’s attack on the BBC isn’t just an attempt to distract us from his lies and parties.
It’s a plea to Murdoch and billionaire press barons: If you go easy on me again, I’ll do whatever you want.
