Reminder than anyone of us can become disabled in a matter of seconds. All it takes is one accident, one symptom, one illness.

It might not be you facing destitution today, but it could be tomorrow. Be kind. Fight back. #DisabilityBenefits

Spare a thought for #pandemials: they were born during the 1980s global recession, went through another global recession in their late twenties and are now dealing with a pandemic-induced recession. @wef 2021 Global Risks #pandemic #unemployment #economy

The fact there are *still* front line health care professionals not offered vaccination (and some who still wont get it for weeks) is an utter scandal

You know we’re at a critical juncture when the NHS texts you to say don’t ring 999 unless it’s an absolute emergency. Don’t think that’s ever happened before throughout this pandemic. #lockdown #nhs #ambulances #COVID19 #coronavirus #NewYear2021

[THE PECKHAM PECULIAR @peckhampeculiar]

Amgad Salih, a 19 year old student from Peckham who is studying at the University of Oxford, shared this picture that his friend organised. They recreated the typical Oxford Bullingdon picture but with black students, to show black representation and inspire more Peckham people.

It’s amazing, isn’t it, that this government thinks it’s ok to spend nearly 8 times the amount allocated to all the arts on a test and trace system that doesn’t work but brags about spending £1.57 billion on the arts (none to actual artists) whilst asking them to retrain...

Is this the world beating track and trace system Boris was talking about? Tests at sewage plants aim to get 'head start' on detecting new COVID-19 outbreaks: https://t.co/cRebO09HQw

Just looking at UK deaths from Covid-19 doesn't give us the full picture. #euromomo pooled excess deaths shows the UK, out of all European countries, has an extremely high number of non-Covid related excess deaths. #COVID19 #COVIDー19 #coronavirus

Hancock says contact tracing system in place in weeks. Does anyone believe this guy anymore? He’s lied about PPE, testing. Contact tracing is probably another white elephant like his Nightingale pop-up hospital. https://t.co/vTgLjSACnc

The government’s excuses for not introducing mass testing don’t add up. Perhaps they haven’t abandoned their herd immunity policy at all #mass testing #coronavirus #HerdImmunity https://t.co/eXf3IigMBx

Self isolation and social distancing is a bit difficult when you're on a military training exercise with thousands of soldiers from all over the world or stuck on board an aircraft carrier with 5,000 other crew members. #SocialDistancing #Military #COVID19 #coronavirus #Navy

One good thing to come out of #coronavirus is that air pollution levels have been slashed around the world https://t.co/dpvPX8fsPR #AirPollution #CoronavirusPandemic #COVIDー19
