@creativegeek Gah. Wish there was a ‘not like’ button. Get in the water for some hydrotherapy on it if you can - really speeds up recovery time for lots of people. I can recommend an excellent osteo in Earlsfield if you need one!
@KingOfSunshine Someone at Rish! HQ sit him down with the figures in this sobering article by Gordon Brown. The only comfort is that none of the “Austerity Children” will ever vote for the Tories when their chance comes. Hunger stays with you #rishisunak#toriesout https://t.co/DnLffa0cr4
@danamulder@baddestmamajama Seconding Ricky here! As a fellow guardian/servant of a chronic illness, I like to think of it as being my own unique arsehat filter…
Just 44 days more until we can witness the utterly beautiful vision of a glorious Friday morning. At last, free of the self-serving Tories, who will have hopefully spent the wee hours crying in leisure centres across the land #GeneralElection#GetThemOut
@RoadsideMum That’s a wonderful friend you’ve got there but remember that you are clearly utterly deserving of such kindness! The isolation & relentless struggle of chronic illness is a complete shitshow but I’m glad you’ve had a reminder today of the good stuff!
@alexandra_DBmed I refuse to accept that this is over for you. You have been treated appallingly whilst battling EDS - you shouldn’t also have to fight their incompetence, ignorance and discrimination. Which med school is this? Happy to write to them if it’ll help. EDSers NEED Drs just like you.
@asifkapadia Fascist, you say? Wonder who they’ve got lined up for next year… Although, rumour has it, she’s planning to resign on Weds when her Rwanda plans are bojangled. Maybe they could just airlift her in as a special guest?
Matt Hancock last year, Farage this year. With any luck, next year it’ll be an unemployed former Home Secretary toasting tofu over the campfire #SuellaBravermanMustGo
