It’s estimated that one in five women in the UK will experience a miscarriage in their lifetime.
But if you lose a pregnancy before 24 weeks, there is currently no legal right to bereavement leave.
I don’t think that’s right.
Losing a pregnancy can be devastating. You and your partner shouldn’t have to worry about going straight back to work.
So we’re changing the law.
From April, women and their partners will be entitled to two weeks off after any pregnancy loss.
And we’re making wider changes, with new rights to time off when you lose someone you love.
When you’re grieving, you deserve the time and space to do that.
After a long battle with depression, 10-year-old Liberty Hall tragically took her own life in 2025.
She left behind this note for her mother, apologizing, and asking her not to blame herself.

Trigger warning - sexual assault from staff

Domestic violence increases by 26% when the England football team wins or draws and 38% when they lose.

You’re sat on bus. On the other side of the bus you hear a women having a conversation over speakerphone loud enough to hear despite being not close to her
It’s apparent she’s a nurse & the convo is about a patient & some things she says *may* be identifiable
What do you do?
Rest in Peace buddy 💔
The most beautiful soul, the most compassionate person you’ll ever know.
Ahmed Ismail @AJ_Looped was filling the water containers when the Israeli artillery opened fire on his house and the neighborhood.
I’ve been thinking about this babe on TikTok who said she knew it was time to end things with her boyfriend because he said/did something and she thought ‘my future husband wouldn’t say that to me, wouldn’t speak to me like that, that’s not the love story I want to tell my kids’.
Just got invited to a wedding in January…they asked me to try not to look pregnant because I’ll take attention
Being as I’ll be 7 months pregnant I declined the invite
(Don’t even know why I was invited in the first place).
Writing a dissertation that heavily critiqued suicide prevention efforts & theorized the desire to die as a queer desire, I didn't think many people would be onboard.
BUT, I just received Dissertation of the Year awards from 2 NCA divisions: GLBTQ & Critical Cultural Studies. 🎉
