I’d rather have people in government from working class backgrounds who achieved those places based on merit and hard work, than a bunch of privileged wankers whose parents paid for their opportunities.
I wanted to re-post this, but without the photo. No one needs to see the killer and the victim loved up before he murdered her.
For centuries women have been blamed for their own murders by the men who supposedly loved them. What did SHE do to MAKE him kill her? Enough.
As a child bereaved by fatal domestic abuse, headlines calling a man who killed three women a “nice guy” and “normal person” have felt personally traumatic.
The media called my father a “gentle man” and “nice chap”, which misrepresented the controlling reality that myself and my family experienced for years. It compounded our trauma.
Reporting like this causes so much damage – both to victims’ families, and to public understandings of coercive control. It has to stop. Now.
We need every single newsroom trained in how to report domestic abuse deaths, and to lobby the regulator for stronger rules. The press has the power to prevent further deaths and save women’s lives.
Please support this crowdfunder I’ve started to support @we_level_up’s crucial work to train journalists in their Dignity For Dead Women guidelines.

Maybe you don’t know what the people want after all, @RishiSunak
I'm currently the target of a significant scam operation on Twitter involving 100s of profiles . They come in the form of paid-for adverts claiming that I made money from cryptocurrencies , then using my fake 'endorsement' to encourage others to invest too . . .
For the avoidance of doubt , these are all scams .
Please RT !
And @ElonMusk@Safety - please fix this !
In both of these photos, I was suicidal. Yet, looking at the second pic, you wouldn’t have known it.
That’s why it’s so important to check in with your friends & family. You never know what someone is going through 💚 #WorldSuicidePreventionDay
Our response to the government's interim plan for ME/CFS:
- Training for medical professionals is welcome but should be mandatory.
- We need an NHS training pathway to create doctors specialising in ME/CFS 1/
#SuicidePreventionDay is a cause close to my heart and we can all play our part.
The next Labour government will deliver 8,500 additional staff to provide mental health support in every school and a mental health hub in every community.
Here’s how you can help 👇🏻
@NikolaiFoster I’m so sorry to hear it. This wonderful lady gave me many of my first opportunities as an actor & was always so warm & easy to do well in front of. A very sad loss & my thoughts are with all of her folk.
@_downthelens_@edfringe I don’t know any details but I’m really sorry Sophie is suffering. This industry never prioritises well being but you should be very proud that you have. Wishing her well x
