So many of us are feeling anxious right now - there's a lot of change, and a lot of uncertainty 🫂

Putting your mental health first is not selfish. It's just showing as much care and kindness to yourself as you would to others 💙

Literally, what a post work social occasion is. Dickheads.

Fuck them.

[Paul Brand @PaulBrandITV]

NEW: Downing Street staff and Boris Johnson pictured drinking wine in the No 10 garden last May when the rest of the country was limited to meeting just one other person socially outdoors.

On 18 Dec - when Downing Street staff broke their own Covid rules by boozing it up at a Christmas party - 489 people died of Covid. Their loved ones distraught, cut off, unable to say goodbye to them. I think this is despicable.

We know wearing a mask is not ideal - we’ve done it for 12+ hours a day for nearly 2 years

But just think of all the people who feel safer

All those who feel less scared

And all those who are less at risk

All thanks to you and a small piece of paper

Your kindness counts 💙

The Health Secretary should have a background in healthcare. If you agree, RT.

[Lottie Barnden @lottiebarn]

That. Was. Exceptional @EmmaRaducanu 🙌🙌🙌🙌

Thoroughly enjoying the @BBCBreakfast chat with Franki Bridge … it’s great to see some of the struggles new mums face highlighted

Another great morning spent at @WWTArundel 💖💖💖

[Sam Quek @SamanthaQuek]

Young girls need role models who show that it’s okay to trust your own body & instincts.

Role models that show that no matter how huge the pressure is on you to do something, you still have a choice.

Saying no isn’t always a weakness, often it’s the greatest of strengths.

[Larry the Cat @Number10cat]

Javid thinks this makes him look strong, but it reveals that he is weak. People haven’t cowered; they have done their best to look after themselves and each other, which the government has repeatedly failed to do at the cost of 129,000 lives.

[Lottie Barnden @lottiebarn]

@MayorofLondon @TfL @thismorning you HAVE to wear a mask on the tube … even if you just don’t really like it. Correct the debate. Now

[Lottie Barnden @lottiebarn]

@thismorning are you not going to correct the idea that anyone can get an exemption? This debate is harmful and dangerous.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

Wow! We are world beating again. Doesn’t it make you proud to be led by the most venal and useless government of all time?

[Lottie Barnden @lottiebarn]

@Cadders68 @SebastianEPayne Wandsworth is only at 31% double jabbed - madness

[Kit Yates @Kit_Yates_Maths]

Because children don’t die in large numbers due to covid, this doesn’t mean it’s fine to expose them to covid.
The impacts of covid are broader than just the headline figures.

[Lottie Barnden @lottiebarn]

Early morning walk at @KneppSafaris, fell in love with this little guy 🥰

[Lottie Barnden @lottiebarn]

@StephLunch Love this 👍
