@kurtjgray I think this is possibly the most gross misuse of the term victim I have ever seen . And a dangerous conflation of entitlement and victimhood.
@Channel4News Do you understand democracy?
Thats when you vote and there is a chance who you want doesn’t get in . Then you accept the majority decision and move aside . Anything else is tyranny.
#Bury communities did an amazing job and have been hard at work throughout the whole pandemic providing for those in isolation, experiencing digital poverty, needing foodbanks or help to find support. Well done and thanks to you all ! #communityspirit
So grateful to @PiksiBelles from @ElephantsTrail for inviting me to talk about the often forgotten subject of bereavement by suicide and how important crafting can be as a form of peer support as shown with the Speak Their Name Quilt project
The Bury Suicide Bereavement Group will now be holding Zoom meetings on a Tuesday evening at 7pm. You do need to join our FB group to take part. The meetings are open to anyone in the borough bereaved by suicide @jon_hobday@BuryCouncil @mattwalshPSLead

@Sillyshib I just asked for the money. No intention of delivering any contract - my best mate is a leading Tory so I just paid my fee to companies house and voila - COVAX was born . I’m now a multi millionaire! Get in !
If you are struggling with suicidal thoughts or have lost a loved one.The GM website is a brilliant resource. Lots of advice on making a safety plan and finding support.
