I intend to strike on Wednesday. I love my job and I want to look after my patients. The moral dilemma over whether to strike is pretty overwhelming, I have spent the last 3 days off anxious about the implication of striking and about going to work in terrible conditions 1/4

"If nurses aren't happy they can leave."

That's exactly the problem. 1 in 9 nurses left the NHS last year. Many go abroad or retrain in other fields. Only 21% of nurses say there are enough staff to do their job properly. Unsafe staffing levels harm us all. Pay them their worth.

Sick and tired of being called a nepo baby because my Dad is also in the public eye. I have worked hard for everything I have.

Retweet if you think big media channels have a responsibility, when women are dying every three days from misogyny and male violence, not to legitimise and embolden abusive misogynistic views.

ITV should fire Jeremy Clarkson.

I think that how Harry and Meghan were treated tells us a lot about how power in Britain really operates. But the fairytale was always a sham: a monarchy is simply incompatible with the pursuit of equality.

Learning how to authentically apologize is one of the most important skills in life, and few people know how.

Here's a step by step guide:

Gorgeous day for a nurses’ strike outside Great Ormond St Hospital. So grateful for their unmatched care & skill. Now let’s get them the fucking pay rise they deserve & that the nation can *easily* afford. Austerity is a choice so change your mind or get in the bin!✊🏼❤️@theRCN

An excellent thread shining clarity on what it really means to be a nurse and why they absolutely deserve better 💙

[Cara Lisette @CaraLisette]

Sincere thread for people who aren’t sure about why nurses are striking:

Nursing is one of the lowest paid graduate jobs in the country. A newly qualified nurse will go in at £27k a year but with significant debt, having worked for free for three years prior to qualifying. 1/

I hate so much all that cost of living advice that is basically “give up anything that might bring you a modicum of joy during these rancid times so that you can afford to simply exist as a husk otherwise you are not worthy of support because you’re not doing the most you can”

Word of the day is 'hibernacle' (18th century): a retreat or refuge in which to sit out the winter and wait for sunnier days.

Alliance for Choice are relieved to hear of the progress in service provision on abortion for the thousands who need treatment in NI every year. Finally we have some movement from the NIO, in the absence of any from the devolved institutions&the ongoing impasse in the Executive.

IT’S FINALLY HAPPENING!

How has it almost been a year since we first opened in Central Station? In that time we, like every business on Leith Walk, has struggled with accessibility, discoverability & noise.

We’d like to take this opportunity to reintroduce ourselves!

Zara are launching ‘pre-owned’ a resale platform that also does repairs and donations. So all I hear is they’re making more money off clothes they already sold once.
