Would be grateful for a RT. My daughter was not a celebrity, she was just a normal individual who unfortunately died from a brain cancer. I'm trying to raise awareness of glioblastoma, a grade 4 tumour that took her at the age of 19 yrs 5 days.
With thanks (Charlotte's mother)

Politics is about choices. I have never made any secret of my choice to stand up for Veterans of Northern Ireland against those who would seek to rewrite history in their favour.
I make no apology whatsoever for doing so. These were a brave generation. I'm deeply proud of them.
We didn't have parties to "boost morale"
We didn't have quiz nights
We didn't have champagne
We watched our colleagues die though
We were STEEPED in death
We kept going
We had to
We kept on
So don't you DARE say your parties were "necessary" @borisjohnson
You make me sick.
We are so lucky to have this opportunity to work with @Hospital_Rooms for the next year. Young people and families will be at the centre of being able to create art that will transform the space in Sandwell @CAMHS_BCHFT and create a legacy for years to come #cypmh#camhs#create
19th March, 1988
Corporal Derek Wood aged 24, and Corporal David Howes, aged 23, both of the Royal Corps of Signals, were savagely beaten and murdered by a baying mob of IRA supporters attending a funeral in Belfast
Lest we Forget these brave young men murdered by cowards 🏴🇬🇧
At last the @BBC showing a bit of back bone! 👏🏻
You can’t go around @GaryLineker accusing this government & country of acting like Nazi Germany & not expect a backlash!
Glad you’ve been dropped - you deserve it you woke hypocritical champagne socialist! 🇬🇧 https://t.co/elbnOnZpO8
Greg Dyke is currently telling us that @GaryLineker is a much loved presenter by the whole country.
No, he’s not.
He’s a woke Lefty propaganda tool. Ordinary British people are extremely concerned by the immigration issue, and feel that Lineker is out of touch. 🤷♀️
Gary Lineker is entitled to his views - he is not entitled to use his privileged position as a BBC commentator to preach when he is paid by the licence fee to comment on football. It is a publicly owned broadcaster .If he doesn’t like that he can go to a privately run TV station
So, Alan Shearer and Wrighty will walk with Gary Lineker. Good. It was getting stale and dull anyway, sack the lot of em. Replacements? suggestion ? Wrong answers only 😊👊😁

People defending Gary Lineker on freedom of speech grounds are either being intellectually dishonest or just plain stupid.
This is not a free speech issue. It's about the BBC's obligation to be impartial. Gary Lineker can say what he likes if he leaves the BBC.
His choice.
Whilst I share @GaryLineker’s view on the migrant refugees, he has signed a contract. I have signed a few and all of them ask that you are impartial . I’d say that includes sport teams as well as political teams. It may not be fair but that’s what you sign .
It's simple @GaryLineker. You have a contract with the BBC, & the BBC has a contract with licence fee payers, who fund your £1.3mill wage, which requires you to observe "due impartiality".
You have to choose: work at the BBC or give your political opinions. You can't do both. 🤷🏻♀️
