@ThePosieParker My son has the condition. John Davidson is a hero. The film reflects the lives of many with Tourettes. This pathetic backlash proves the ignorance of the condition.
John Davidson. What a bloody amazing man. The BAFTA uproar has just proved what a long way there is to go before Tourettes is actually understood in the general population.
@narindertweets@BAFTA This has happened because Tourettes makes you shout out the worst thing possible in any situation, The backlash has proved that this condition is still misunderstood. John Davidson is amazing.
I'm sharing this story and the hashtags as many women throughout Islamic cultures are targeted if they do.
We have a duty to share if we are able. Make sure you copy and paste the hashtag in Arabic as well as the english ones.
"Imagine your face never feeling the sunlight. Your whole body covered every single day—not by choice, but by force. Imagine not being able to breathe properly, like you’re suffocating behind a piece of cloth all the time. No bike rides, no swimming in the sea—simple joys we’re denied just because we’re women in Saudi Arabia.
Saudi women started a hashtag و #٢٠٣٠_بلا_نقاب on X, asking for the right to choose whether to wear the niqab or not. But instead of being heard, we got attacked—insults, threats, and worse. So many women are being beaten, blackmailed, emotionally abused, and even murdered just for taking off the niqab.
And the government hotline for domestic violence? They often side with the abuser. Some women report and then are sent right back to the man hurting them. One of the girls who lost her life for simply removing the abaya and niqab was Hadeel Al-Harithi, only 19 years old. Please share this message, but don’t mention my account or tag me. Speaking about this still puts us in danger. But staying silent is even deadlier."
