Does anyone usually say ‘I tried to engage with (insert persons name)’ or I went to see (person) and ‘they didn’t engage’. No, you don’t, so stop saying it just because you work in mental health. Talk, visit, listen, E.g. tried to ring but no answer. Language is so important.
@Philippa_Perry I also think they can be deliberately exclusionary and people use them to exert their power, almost as if they know better/more. Particularly prevalent in workplace environments such as mine (local authority)
It is profoundly offensive to me and deeply disappointing that during a cost of living crisis where nurses, teachers & doctors have been told that we “don’t have the money”, that “the king”, who’s vast private wealth has recently been laid bare, can not pay for his own coronation.
@steffieegg12 Classic landlord behaviour, I wasn’t even surprised reading this. Sending you love & strength during the whirlwind that is pregnancy and grief, Stephie. Not long to go now until baby and the start of colossal, boundless love x
It’s not all men, no. Of course it isn’t. But if a plane was crashing somewhere in the UK every day of the week then wouldn’t we want to maybe talk about what we’re teaching our pilots?
500,000 workers take strike action today. They are taking on corporate and government greed and power.
RT if you back every single individual who is on the picket lines today.
#EnoughIsEnough
A legal clause means King Charles III inherits his mother’s vast fortune but escapes a £200 million tax bill.
• 0% tax for him
• 40% tax for you
God save the king…………
@JamieStone3579 @SocialWorkEng I agree. Really felt like obligatory tick box exercise rather than the opportunity to record anything meaningful. I too got the impression that perhaps it was not created by social workers. Feel let down, especially since we have to pay for the registration. #sigh
Dear @trussliz, we need pay rises, not tax cuts for bankers. #EndThePayCrisis and give workers the pay rise they need to support the economy and keep people out of poverty. #EmergencyBudget#MiniBudget
Please share. Send a tweet to the PM or Chancellor - https://t.co/sUrROdZoG8
#motherhood why does every person over the age of 55 tell me to leave my baby to cry? No. Why would I do that. I’m not ‘training’ my baby to do anything. She’s a baby.
If US Supreme Court overturning #RoeVWade was about babies, there would be:
Universal healthcare
Free birth control
Free education
Free daycare
Child support
Criminalisation of all rape & child marriage
As with all abuse of women, this is purely about male power and control
I’m here for the women who get abortions just because they want to. No explanation. If she does not want to be pregnant, that’s a good enough reason to me. I truly do not care. I’m done playing this morality game.
