Thank you to @meganspecia@nytimes for telling this story (my story) and bringing much needed awareness to a crisis that no one wants to acknowledge or face.
The unrelenting burden of two years of the pandemic, with health staff and hospital capacity stretched thin, has seen a backlog of procedures balloon to record proportions in England. https://t.co/1dpbyUPJNK
Excited to finally be able to share my book with the world!
Gothic Celebrity: Fame and Immortality from Lord Byron to Lady Gaga 💀⭐️
The book explores the relationship between celebrity culture and the Gothic in literature, media and popular culture.

Online check in not working @British_Airways, and no luggage to be checked in so now queuing at Fuerteventura airport which seems an unnecessary use of time. Plus check in desk closed… 🤔

You may have seen in tonight’s episode of #madeinchelsea, that one of the cast members Sam Vanderpump needs an organ transplant. Our thoughts are with Sam and his family as they face this news. We hope that his courage in speaking out will offer inspiration to others. (1/3)
If you want to be an organ donor and save lives after your death, please confirm your decision on the NHS Organ Donor Register and ensure your loved ones know and support your decision. (3//3)

An anecdote of an interaction with a patient that has stayed with me for 15 years.

She couldn’t have been more than 5 years older than me.
The reason was ‘work stress’
A long 🧵
We’ve lost quite a few followers for opposing the Conservatives so directly
But we cannot be silent after the damage they have done to the NHS
Please follow and RT if you’re still right behind us, and help make 4th July a pivotal moment for our health service

So lesson of the morning.; one I keep having to re-learn. Cut those pages that do nothing and say nothing. They may have been lovingly crafted … but it pays to be brutal! #newwriting
