Social worker. Social justice warrior. Camerado. Knitter. Gardener. Loud chatterbox. Often sweary. These views are my own.

Hello again. In case anyone still isn’t paying attention, your government is actively planning to overthrow the rule of law and purpose of an independent judiciary, so please don’t say you weren’t bloody warned or you didn’t vote for this.

Here’s the warning. Stop voting for it.

[Unwell and furious @hils_c]

Oh lads, I'm full of the mubble-fubbles tonight. 😔

Send love and funny shit.

[Susie Dent @susie_dent]

Word of the day is ‘mubble-fubbles’ (16th century): an overall feeling of despondency, low spirits, or ill humour.

[Unwell and furious @hils_c]

I love these people so much! If you haven't visited the space, so, it's lovely 🥰

[YorkMCN @YorkMCN]

We're doing it again! Join us tomorrow for another co-location open day, from 3pm to 5.30pm. As usual - there'll be hot drinks and biscuits available!

[Unwell and furious @hils_c]

It would have been good then to have @DrHannahBB in a position of power instead of yet another Tory.

We'll pick ourselves up and dust ourselves off and start building relationships and planning for the next adventure. 💪

[Susie Beever @SusieMayJourno]

five of the 11 main stories on top of the BBC news site this morning are about male violence against women and girls. an utterly grim week to be a woman.

Just home from voting for Dr Hannah Barham-Brown (@DrHannahBB) to be our next Police Fire and Crime Commissioner in North Yorkshire.

Don't forget to vote!! (And wear gloves and a scarf, it's nippy.)

[Unwell and furious @hils_c]

Nobody should have to go through this, but well done! 🙌

[Unwell and furious @hils_c]

If you get a chance, watch this hustings.

@DrHannahBB is the only viable candidate. One candidate said very little outside repeating what Hannah said, and two showed themselves to be wholly unfit for any office, never mind this one.

Vote for Dr Hannah Barham-Brown on Thursday.

"If your fear of terrorism is so great that you’ve decided to effectively close off the city to people with disabilities, then I’m sorry but the terrorists have won. This is nothing short of a craven surrender to them."

The world is a fucking shit show right now. Stop and let me off.

[Kimberlé Crenshaw @sandylocks]

Acquitted. All fucking charges. Understand what this means.

[Unwell and furious @hils_c]

So pleased to see people stand up for their values and leave the local parties who have shown they are capable of inflicting significant harm on disabled people in pursuit of their personal preferences.

I do keep getting a certain Queen song in my head though 😂

[York Disability Rights Forum @YorkDRF]

#IsItOk that this morning many of us - disabled and non disabled, york residents and beyond - are feeling the pain and anger that City of York Council voted to keep blue badge holders out the city last night?

[Unwell and furious @hils_c]

Do NOT talk about consultation as a positive in this discussion. I will lose my MIND

[Alexandra Topping @LexyTopping]

No surprise to hear @VictimsComm pulling no punches at the @PoliceChiefs conference: "Why won't the police tackle violence against women and girls properly? I ask you to tell me what more women have to do, to get police to take violence against women and girls seriously." #VAWG

@DrHannahBB Good luck and don't forget you're fabulous 💕

[Unwell and furious @hils_c]

Ok, despite best efforts to just ignore it, I have to admit to myself that I'm sick after no sleep and pretty endless coughing. Weak as a kitten with covid tests on the way. Also a ridiculously busy day today that I'm not cancelling. No advice please, I know I'm an idiot. 😂

[Community Voices York @VoicesYork]

We asked disabled people how they were feeling about the Blue Badge exclusion in #York. This is an extract of what they said.

Full audio will be on https://t.co/iDiZ3BdjBw soon.

Some comments are from council surveys which are publicly available and some are read by volunteers.
