She should have turned 39 today. But she died 10 weeks after these were taken. She is my 'why'. I write about policy driven poverty & inequality, because she was born into both. That and DV. And to a Trad Wife fundy-raised mother who left school at 14.
The policies @chrisluxonmp and his band of miserable colleagues are enacting are brutal. To lose a public transport subsidy, while being forced to attend work ready meetings, knowing you will be fined if your kids don't get to school, & be on the edge of homelessness, is deadly.

BREAKING: Israel just dropped bomb on a house in Gaza, killing all 80 Palestinians who were taking refuge inside.

A holocaust is happening right before our eyes and every Western regime is complicit.
