@FranklinVH2 I told pharmacist I didn't need a cream on my repeat prescription as it had been charged to pessary. She told me to take it anyway as they would just have to throw it away!! It hadn't left their hands. Why can't it be re- used. Wasteful. Shameful.

I have absolutely no idea why my timeline is completely ignoring the suspension of Labour MP Perran Moon today. He was just caught trying to dissolve his private company without paying back a £50,000 taxpayer-funded Covid loan. Right as this government prepares to hammer ordinary families with tax hikes in the Budget.

Here is what they desperately hope stays quiet!🧵

@JoePJRobertson My friend was a self employed roofer. Had a stroke and can no longer work. He's never claimed anything in 30 years but had to fight tooth and nail to get PIP. First claim rejected but got through on appeal. Terribly stressful for all concerned.

@SamaHoole Im 68. Live in Durham. North East England . My mam had her teeth out for her 21st birthday.
Her dentures never fitted properly especially as she got older and her gums shrank. Spent more time out of her mouth then in.

@JHCPAL My gran made leek pudding. Wrapped in a cloth. Tied with string. Steamed in a pan.
Dad loved it.

They forced me into hijab at age 6 and forced me to wear it for the next 25 years till I left. They told me my whole life I’d go to hell and burn for an eternity if a man sees my hair and lusts after me even though I was a little girl. They told me I was worth half a man my whole life; I’d inherit half, my witness in court is half, my blood money is half, I’m half-brained. They told me if I dishonour my family, my father or grandfather or uncle or any man in my family would kill me to restore the family honour with no consequences to them whatsoever. They told me my father is my male guardian and gets to decide if I get an education or a job or even a lifesaving surgery. When I got married to a Muslim man, they told me now he was my male guardian and would get to make those decisions for me. They told me if I ever give birth to my own children, he would own them forever like my dad owned me. They told me I couldn’t divorce him even if he beat me to death or married 3 other women simultaneously. They’d chase me around and arrest me if my hijab wasn’t proper enough for decades. They imprisoned my uncle in solitary confinement for having unIslamic ideas. They told me they’d imprison me if I’d had unIslamic ideas. They murdered thousands upon thousands upon thousands people like me who had unIslamic ideas. They still tell me I was never a real Muslim and am not a real exMuslim now. They still call me a whore/ slut/ jendeh/ fahisha/ majoosi/ prostitute for speaking about my own experiences. They send me death threats quite frequently. They stalk me, harass me, threaten me, insult me (and my parents) to silence me.

Do you get the picture or do you want me to go on. Because I can go on.

Kudos for Robbie Williams for this.

He has defended Olivia Rodrigo amid claims that her new festive song Take Me Home (4 Christmas) sounds similar to his 2012 hit Candy.

Classy response.

@joancooke5 Unfortunately I am in the tranch that have to wait until we're 70 despite having had shingles before. Ridiculous situation when younger friends are getting theirs.

The Young Vic casts ‘Suzy’ Izzard, a man who regularly enters female-only spaces, in a play about Gisèle Pelicot. A story about the most appalling violations of a woman’s consent, featuring a man who treats women's boundaries as negotiable. Do they see the irony, or is this just trolling by their woke staff?

Polish🇵🇱 heroes: the surgeons who rushed to help the wounded police officers

Two outstanding Kraków surgeons, Prof. Michał Pędziwiatr and Dr. Mateusz Wierdak, were having lunch at a restaurant near the site of yesterday’s tragedy on the Main Square.

When they learned that two police officers had been seriously shot while detaining an attacker, they immediately abandoned their meal and rushed to help.

One of the officers was in immediate danger of death. Professor Pędziwiatr not only helped the wounded at the scene, but later also operated on one of the officers at the hospital.

Their lightning-fast reaction may have been crucial to saving the officers’ lives. Pass it on, let it spread 🇵💪

@coach____lewis @CWOA Its like going back in time. I worked in a government building in the 90s and we had bomb scares on a very regular basis. Thankfully always a hoax.
