You are insulting everyone's intelligence.

I spoke about the £20bn / year shortfall throughout the election, over and over again.

As I said, the media let you get away with it.

You could tax the rich instead of slashing investment. You're making a choice.

I wrote about how I’m personally going to force game companies to put in all the stuff you hate.

When my employer announces a load of staff cuts and how AI can be used to streamline human processes... no one learns from anyone

[Emily Stronach Walker @Emily_SWalker]

@rhiannonlucyc This, and the absolute tirade of anti-medical birthing or pregnancy-related content and abuse they shovel out is so scary and dangerous, from the usual "holistic nurturing mummy" accounts. As if life-saving surgeries and treatments are medical negligence

[Emily Stronach Walker @Emily_SWalker]

This is just beyond moronic, I firmly believe this government have just decided to completely break the country at this point.

From today, care workers entering the UK on Health and Care Worker visas can no longer bring dependants.

This is part of our plan to deliver the biggest ever cut in migration.

The flat we are staying in this week is a converted church and might just have my favourite bath ever!!!

After careful consideration, I am confident that the single most clinically effective way to quash any potential interest in literature, reading or poetry is the GCSE English Literature syllabus. A laser-guided method for taking something joyous and making it hateful.

Morning walk

[Emily Stronach Walker @Emily_SWalker]

Been thinking about this poem a lot recently, one of my favourites and I've never fully appreciated how deeply sad it is despite its outward humour. Elizabeth Bishop does not miss.
