Let's stop treating WFH as some futuristic utopia for everyone. I have a team member in a studio - sleeps, works and lives in the same room, another in a crowded house working on a chest of drawers, both of them deserve the opportunity to return (with safety measures in place).

@LindaUrquhart SO important!!!

[Nicola Sturgeon @NicolaSturgeon]

This is a misrepresentation of the position by @grantshapps - which is disappointing but sadly not surprising.

Stay #WeatherAware

[Nicola Sturgeon @NicolaSturgeon]

We can’t read too much into a single day’s figures - and we know registration of deaths are relatively low at weekends - but nevertheless this is a headline we’ve all longed to see.

The number of men, like his Lordship here, who are obsessed with my hair is a bit weird tbh.
(Whereas most women look at it and just know no hairdresser has been anywhere near it 😂)

[Emma Ritch @EmmaRitch]

A woman wound up her tech company with the loss of thirteen jobs because her husband balked at caring for his own child after three days in lockdown. We need to factor men’s refusal to do childcare into #COVIDー19 recovery plans. https://t.co/1mQ1Q83ZV5

[Emma Ritch @EmmaRitch]

#IWD started as a protest about women’s labour exploitation. Its radical spirit is being drowned out by self-congratulatory corporate shills, many of whom are enabling discrimination against, violence towards, and even the death of actual women.

Ofgem’s #decarbonisation plan couldn’t come at a better time! 👍Challenge accepted!

We're ready to deliver one of the cheapest forms of #renewable electricity to consumers across the UK (that's #onshorewind BTW!) to help meet our #NetZero ambitions.

@LindaUrquhart @CalMacFerries Wish my ferry was cancelled tonight. Sadly it’s not to be.

Fridays in Walls mean one thing - volunteering at the community lunch in the Kirk. As usual the Reestit Mutton soup was gone first!
