This time last year, writers from @UoMDrama were in workshops with @CleanBrk, @tippmcr & @WTJ_Research to mark an accrued 70 years of prison theatre practice.

I wrote a blog about representation in their work, which is still available to read below👇🏻

In societies that demonise long term chronically sick people, fail to cure them and instead demand they get back to work, euthanasia should not exist

“I’m shocked a Labour government would do this…and make this one of the first things they do.”

“Do you blame the Prime Minister for that?”

🚨DR UK's Statement on Passing of Assisted Dying Bill

We stand firmly against a law that risks pressuring Disabled people into decisions driven by lack of options rather than genuine choice. This bill could reinforce the narrative that Disabled people’s lives are less valuable.

[Lucy Webster @Lucy_Webster_]

just a reminder that 350+ disability rights groups are opposing this dangerous bill

Israel has murdered 111 people in Gaza since today’s dawn. Don’t normalize this genocide; don’t normalize the daily slaughter of more than a hundred people. Don’t normalize the killing and incineration of women, men, and children. Ceasefire now!

I started my career as a cleaner in the NHS. I learnt a lot about the world in that role. Some people treated me with respect, but many treated me badly. Cleaners hold hospitals together. I will absolutely judge you on how you treat the cleaners & porters.

What is so nasty about the Chris Kaba situation is the fact that news outlets are DELIBERATELY releasing this info as a bid to justify&distract from the reality of a GRAVE INJUSTICE&a falsified narrative to cover up what we know is true. A black man was shot. #Justice4ChrisKaba

[Rachel Withers @rachelrwithers]

Bravo to Lidia Thorpe, but also to the Auslan interpreter who continued to sign what Thorpe was saying.

[Noura Erakat @4noura]

Universities are suspending their students for protesting this.

Messages from Jabalia:

"Guys, people are being killed one after the other in Jabalia Camp, bodies are in the streets. I no longer know what to write or what to feel, or if it's just a figment of the imagination to write here in the hope that someone will see and be able to stop the bloodshed."

When a mental health charity has to intervene, because the government is scaring the shit out of people

[Rania @umyaznemo]

Do you remember this video from under a year ago? @Rahmazeinegypt telling off a journalist for their complicity in genocide. Every word Rahma said still holds true today!

[Endometriosis UK @EndometriosisUK]

Period pain that impacts day to day life, including causing absences from school, can be a symptom of endometriosis and other menstrual health conditions, and must be taken seriously.

not a single day has passed where I’ve regretted not voting for this government. Quite the opposite. They’re absolutely morally bankrupt, just like the last ones.

[Nadeem Ahmed @Muqadaam]

One of the biggest protests in the history of Great Britain

1 MILLION people

Let’s do it again Saturday!
