My disabled child was handed this Pride Activity Booklet 2026 while we were waiting for his appointment at Alder Hey today.
It’s full of wording such as “lesbian”, “gay”, “bisexual”, “trans”, “non binary” etc, colouring pages saying “Some kids have two mums” and “Some kids have two dads”, rainbows, “Equality Wins” pictures, and stickers from Alder Hey Children’s Charity covered in pride flags.
When we came back down after the appointment they have a full set-up in the middle of the hospital with speeches going on about LGBTQ+.
I bring my child here so he can see his doctors and get the medical care he needs, not so that adults can push gender and LGBTQ+ ideology on an impressionable disabled child in a hospital waiting room.
This is a children’s hospital. Something has gone badly wrong when this is treated as normal.
I do have a video of me making a complaint. The gentleman said “I’m so sorry, it’s nothing to do with us.” I genuinely felt sorry for him, so I will not post it.
So whose decision is it? The Trust, the charity, or higher up in the NHS and government?
I want to express how deeply upset I am after being registered as a nurse with the @nmcnews since 1998 and having previously worked for the NHS since 1994.
I have dedicated my life to supporting mental health patients within the NHS until I felt compelled to speak out about the horrifying abuse and torture my daughter endured. Throughout my career, I have always maintained good practice and never received any complaints.
As I say, I will call out any professional for a cover-up! I don't give a shit!
Some sick bastards in the UK painted a defenseless hedgehog blue like it was some kind of joke.
They grabbed little Honey, sprayed her down with oil-based paint, glued her spines together so she couldn’t curl up or move right, and left her choking on the fumes. Found her in a Yeadon garden. Prickly Pigs Hedgehog Rescue took her in, scraped that crap off spine by spine, fought like hell to save her.
She died anyway.
Four punks got arrested. A 44-year-old, a 21-year-old, and two kids aged 17 and 15. Bailed for now, but they better feel the full weight of the law.
This ain’t “boys being boys.” This is straight-up evil.
Torturing a vulnerable animal for fun while hedgehogs are already getting wiped out by human garbage. Shows how broken some people are. No excuse, no mercy.
Hats off to Diane Cook and the Prickly Pigs team for stepping up when cowards did this. Real heroes doing 24/7 work from home to protect what matters.
Justice for Honey. Lock ’em down hard.

This man didn’t just kill a duckling. He looked a tiny, defenceless creature in the eye and snapped its neck like it was a fucking twig for his own entertainment. That is the behaviour of someone who has zero empathy, zero soul, and zero place among us normal humans. DEPORT
I think everyone can see there was no ill intent behind this ribbing of the new Lord Chancellor - a role I once filled and which comes with immense challenges thanks to the vandalism inflicted on our justice system by the last Conservative government.
But I appreciate this is an extremely serious issue and do not want anyone to mistake this moment of levity for a lack of serious intent.
🚨 BREAKING: The CPS has stated that Ann Widdecombe died after she was hit on the head with a hammer, 21 times.

Utterly horrendous. The details are even worse than I feared💔
🚨 6 full days since we found him screaming in agony in an alley way and Mr Bear is still alive.
🏥 I thought we lost him a couple of times In the last 72 hours. He was really struggling to hang on.
🩸 We now know that it is leptospirosis that ravaged his body. It’s a disease passed on by rats and stagnant water.
🤒 His extreme pain is being managed and he has IV drips and all the meds he needs. He was puking, diarrhea and severe life threatening anemia all weekend. I don’t really know how he held on.
🥘 Last night and today he is back eating and drinking. It’s a tiny step but we think he might be 10% better. Still critical and he could slip away very easily but we all have some hope just looking at him today.
👁️ For the first time he has some clarity in his eyes. They are relaxing as he knows he is safe.
🛌 At the moment his best friend is sleep and his medicines.
I don’t know how this story ends and it’s still a long shot we save him as he hasn’t even been able to move in 6 days. But if you told me Bear would be alive today and eating tiny bits of poached chicken I would have bitten your arm off for that outcome just 2 days ago.
Please keep everything crossed for Bear 🙏
Argentina are the only team out of all 48 participants not to have a single VAR intervention against them, despite committing the most fouls in the tournament. Do you even realize how insane that is?
Dear Tofu.... it breaks our hearts to say goodbye to you today. Even though you came to us old and completely abandoned by the world, we are so deeply grateful that you finally felt at home with us. Happy Doggo land won't be the same without the absolute best singer ever. You spent your final chapter exactly as every senior dog deserves - safe, cherished, and surrounded by everyone who adored your beautiful voice.
Rest easy, Tofu. We love you so much and you will never be forgotten. 🕊️🩶
Hank might look like the scariest boy when out and about but he is terrified of rain. Thunder sends him into a panic.
That’s when myself and Chance swing into action. She knows he is suffering and reassures him.
Shout out to the person who knitted this for Hank as a gift ❤️
A lot of new dogs in need coming in this week. This is Willow.
She is quite poorly and the reason is she had an owner who is also in hospital and unwell. The lady is not well off and has no relatives.
We'll get her back on her feet
