I have never liked the word survivor. The thing is that most of us who were exposed to the horrors of institutional or inappropriate foster placements (avoiding the word “care”) have lived most of our lives with PTSD from trauma from every kind of abuse.
@loogoldham I love the multi track version of That Girl Belongs to Yesterday on the album. I read that Gene played an instrument on the Not Fade Away sessions with a cognac bottle?
@RobbieRinder@RobertFillies1 Try empathy first. Ponder on the huge social inequality producing kids in balaclavas grabbing phones from the insured and privileged.

Well done @lauraee_ and @SharAugust for speaking out about sexual harassment. It was a brave thing to do and has helped shine a light on how frequently women face this awful abuse https://t.co/0fenxgGNGt
@Donna_Peach@IDickson258 @OYFtheBook You bet! My mate Neil Cochrane is one of yours, I've heard a lot of good things about you! Do love the social policy team - will be sad to leave them this year :(.
@DavidJBeckFood The police once stole an ipod and mobile phone from me. When I went to an LGBT meeting at the Beacon centre about a year later, I told a visiting police officer; the silence could have heard a pin drop.
