It was on this day, on 24th August 2007, that life support machines at Hope Hospital (now Salford Royal) were turned off and family, friends and the community said goodbye to Sophie 🖤
We're all thinking of you today, Sophie, every single one of us 🖤🌹 #sophielancaster
Seems @OVOEnergy don't like the publicity I've given their thuggish letter. They're now pretending the thuggery was uncharacteristic. But they've got form. I got their bosses to compensate a constituent with Parkinson's whom they'd made cry with their nasty brutal behaviour.
As a @BBCWatchdog presenter & MP I've encountered a few unsavoury firms. But how about @OVOEnergy for thuggery? They claimed I owed more than £1k (I didn't - they'd sent an estimate.) They threatened forced entry with a "dog handler". Imagine someone vulnerable getting this?
👇 To be a ‘Gypsy’ comes with the legacies of 500 years of chattel slavery; with systemic racism, police brutality, segregation, forced sterilisation, genocide; with often strict practices and traditions, not the ideal of ‘free-spiritedness’ that non-Roma have fetishised (1/)
I am thankful for the existence and support of @AcornNorwich. I’ve become a member and will pass on the assistance by joining my colleagues in actions to prevent others from going through this kind of appalling situation with landlords.
A men’s rights activist targeted my children because he didn’t agree with my views, demanding they be taken into care and so landing them with a social services record. The police didn’t prosecute him for harassment, they have backed his right to do this giving a green 1/2
@LizziCollinge@PollingReportUK@UKLabour We need people to vote though… that’s the challenge. And keep Westminster Labour out of it. Let’s work to make both possible.
Ah fuck it, THREAD, I guess. I’ve tried to hold my tongue re: the lack of female guitar acts/female headliners/the “pipeline problem” at Glastonbury. But perhaps my experience is relevant. I am a female guitar act. I write big, singalong chorus songs that go great at festivals.1/
