Now is the time to challenge the Tories’ hateful rhetoric that dehumanises refugees.
Failure to do so legitimises anti-migrant ideology and emboldens the far-right.
Compassion, not managerialism, is the answer to a growing humanitarian crisis.
@RSPBEngland Perhaps @Airbnb's etc are to blame for the lack of available homes, so rather than free up land for more housing perhaps save those animals habitats, that in turn feed our wellbeing, and sort out the housing crisis from the areas it stems
@DefraGovUK@RSPBEngland Ah, whom to trust on whether or not the government is mounting an attack on nature: the nakedly politicised DEFRA comms team or a hugely respected charity with more than a million members, that manages 224 nature reserves? 🤔 Quite the quandary.
When ADHD so bad you can't read, knit, watch TV, socialise, cook, clean, wash, think, without feeling dizzy.

It's shockingly hard to get support in #Herefordshire for #ADHD, even with a diagnosis. Asking for lower dose of meds since moving county has left me without any meds for 6 months.
Sent in circles trying to find out how to get help. Can anyone direct me? On a thread here.
One of the most common #Myths about #Autistic people is that they lack empathy
This belief has led to #Stigma & #Discrimination when in fact this difference in #Communication and #Empathy goes both ways.
