Honestly, my advice here is more for people who are having this struggle with their managers. Even the most well-meaning manager can't solve all of your problems for you. Please stop thinking they can bend the company to provide whatever you need. They can't.

Surely it's possible both that white working class kids face tremendous obstacles about which we should do something AND that systemic racism remains a problem?

@DanDHewitt I totally get you. I’ve spent about two weeks working on definitions because I think helping out people see they can learn anywhere is important. But I have also had big moments of imposter “what’s the point, is this just intellectualism that helps no one?!?”

[Clare Martin @clmarts]

Yes! First @WestReservoir swim for the year booked. 29th March here I come. Can’t wait to get in the water. Though also crossing fingers that it continues to get a bit warmer!

@GaryBuxtonMBE @RuthR80 Why not?!? These are great answers. Accurate and honest.

Joined an amazing event last night with @Create_Jobs and @hustlecrewlive watching the pitches of some brilliant young entrepreneurs. So inspiring, no zoom fatigue and feel lucky to have mentored one of them

What have I learned from a year of Covid?

An infamous epidmiological model turned out to get the big calls right; people were kinder and wiser than we tend to give them credit for; politicians failed to learn from their mistakes.

Did the boys schools do classes on speaking up if you think your mate is creepy?

#SarahEverard could be my friends. Could be me. Could be hundreds more women of colour&trans women who are even less visible in society & politics. Society isn’t equal until everyone is safe

Yes it’s not all men. But it’s enough. I was taught to have strategies. Multiple risk assessments. Every womxn I know has a story. I got self defence class. Did the boys school do extra classes on not attacking women?

Leaseholders living in "worthless fire traps" next to #Arsenal's stadium & at Highbury may be hit with £50,000 bills & bankruptcy.

Fire safety defects have been discovered on their buildings. #AFC

I live in a building that’s unsafe. I pay fees to Arsenal for match day security. I pay ground rent to Arsenal. My service charge has just gone up. But strangely no news on when the building will be made safe by Kier or Newlon or Arsenal #cladding #arsenalfiretraphomes

[End Our Cladding Scandal @EOCS_Official]

Even when the freeholder is worth billions, the costs of the #BuildingSafetyCrisis are still falling on leaseholders.

@Arsenal have done nothing to support residents trapped in unsafe homes on their land.

@emerald1910 Hello!

This week's column is the story of how an innocent question caused me to lose my cool. It was a sudden insight into the painful emotions that will emerged in a partly-vaccinated country: https://t.co/CBNh4dozh2

[Clare Martin @clmarts]

@RuthR80 @GaryBuxtonMBE Is there such as thing as too many? Asking for a friend...

[Clare Martin @clmarts]

@GaryBuxtonMBE Shouldn’t be but often feels like polarity: empathy vs performance

[Clare Martin @clmarts]

Very reflective Tuesday night webinar on non violent communication. Gave a great sense of peace to find the pause between observing and responding. Thanks @UK_ICF

[Clare Martin @clmarts]

2021, starting as I want to go on. Reading an essay writing guide from @BarefootCoaches and talking about it out loud so I’m committed via a bit of social media accountability
