About 6 years ago I was diagosed with rare genetic blood #cancer called polycythemia. Since then it’s progressed & become post-polycythemia vera myelofibrosis. 36 months ago I was also diagnosed with multiple myeloma.

@DougBannatyne @GaryLineker 100% my views too. I've tweeted wrote often about this.

[Dr Maia Newley @MettaFilms]

@DougBannatyne @GaryLineker Exactly this. If they come After the weakest of us, they can come After anyone. Think wisely before you support such things.

[Dr Maia Newley @MettaFilms]

@GaryLineker Bring her back. Then put her in prison if she's committed crimes.

But, always remember, if they can come after a girl who was a teenager when this happened, then they can come after you.

Whatever they do to the weakest of us, they will eventually do to anyone.

We published our report in July 2018. Today's ruling confirms that we have the power to do so. https://t.co/hlFre7dIzP

Two key takeaways: First, the 12-year-old victim has been denied justice. Prosecutors and police mishandled her case and then used her as a pawn.

[Sister Helen Prejean @helenprejean]

It does suggest, however, that using this unproven cold case, plus other unproven allegations, in the sentencing phase of Rodney’s capital murder trial was a tactic to prove “future dangerousness,” a prerequisite for getting the death penalty in Texas.

[Sister Helen Prejean @helenprejean]

#RodneyReed was accused of sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl during the sentencing phase of his murder trial in 1998. This is, of course, a very disturbing allegation, but there were MAJOR problems with it. Here’s the context you need to understand the whole picture.

[Dr Maia Newley @MettaFilms]

@MyArrse @Lynneth1000000 Her should have just used the one from 2017 since the #BBC are showing that rather than this year's.

Boris Johnson claimed £16.50 for Remembrance Sunday wreath out of his expenses. Shows what he really thinks of veterans.
Jeremy Corbyn paid for his himself.

[Dr Maia Newley @MettaFilms]

I don't want to be the first to say this but...

Bwahahahahahaha.

Don't hold yer breath matey boy.

[Richard W. Painter @RWPUSA]

Nope. We don’t need the whistleblower.
But Ivanka, Eric and Don, Jr. can each have a personalized subpoena to tell us all about how the Trump family has been raking in the $$$$.
Emoluments, Trump Tower Instanbul, China trademarks and visas, deals with the Saudis, Russia and more.

@MettaFilms I’d be Mad from #DaphneDuMaurier ‘s #RuleBritannia maybe not as well known as Rebecca or Jamaica’s Inn, but she predicted Brexit in it, and 80 yr old Mad leads the resistance! She’s also adopted a horde of unadoptable children with disabilities and MH issues. My type of woman!

[Dr Maia Newley @MettaFilms]

@Battlescapes I didn't realise you had 'a Twitter', so I've been congratulating your lovely mum on your book Viking Britain. It really is a revelation to me alongside being fantastically enjoyable. Accurately understanding our own history can prevent so many tragic repetitions ❤

[Dr Maia Newley @MettaFilms]

@chickenprincess And there is also something so unutterably romantic about it, despite his being so stupid in many ways and so blind. He is just so in love and so wanting to do the right thing. The piano lessons... all of it. It is real craftsmanship. ❤️❤️

[Dr Maia Newley @MettaFilms]

If I’d been any literary character, I’d have loved to have been Madeleine Vesey Neroni who had very strange legs and a daughter she introduced to everyone as ‘the last of the Nero’s’.

That’s my kind of woman!

[Dr Maia Newley @MettaFilms]

@chickenprincess Mine too! It is many-layered book but it has stuck with me since I first read it. I empathised with her and her boredom but was also internally screaming ‘can’t you be happy with what you’ve got’ all the while knowing I wouldn’t be if it were me. It’s a beautiful portrait.

[Dr Maia Newley @MettaFilms]

There’s a haunting line in Jude The Obscure #ThomasHardy when one of the children kills himself & leaves a note which says ‘done because we are too many’. It is SO sad. But they have no food & are in terrible poverty. It used to seem so Victorian, now it seems almost current.
