@AndrewJ31680521 Thank you for writing this, it really resonates. I was diagnosed in Nov 2023 with stage IV cancer and I hate the terminology around cancer, as you have so eloquently said, does that mean that the people who didn’t survive weren’t fighting hard enough?

The power to #EndViolence against children is in our hands. We must and have to do it!

In the last 50 years, there has been a $50 trillion transfer of wealth from the bottom 90% to the top 1%.

$50 trillion.

When is "enough" really going to be "enough" for the billionaire class?

Today is the day that Daisy gets her hair cut for @LPTrustUK in her school assembly in front of all her friends!!
Very proud of her for donating her hair to an amazing cause and also raising vital funds💜
Smashed her target of £500 and still going! https://t.co/9BDiLIePLD

As a cancer specialist, I find this level of journalism absolutely appalling. It’s hard to know where to begin, when the lack of understanding of how cancer might affect people is this poor. I’m more than happy to speak to @AllisonPearson to explain why this is so bad

[Dr Dan Goyal @danielgoyal]

I’m happy my tax money is used to provide financial support to those who are too unwell to work. I’m also more than happy to pay taxes on the premise that if I’m one of the unlucky ones who can’t work due to ill health I will be financially supported

It’s called civilisation

Rishi Sunak says your GP is not qualified to determine whether you are sick or not.

This is a vile assault on the health of the British people by an unelected Prime Minister.

@kaniep @Coeliac_UK Mmm…. Vanessa Feltz the well known gastroenterologist! If you don’t know what you’re talking about best to say nowt!

[Dr Lisa Cherry OBE @_LisaCherry]

I'm not sure it's possible to describe being given a cancer diagnosis unless you've had one but I'll have a go in case you're supporting someone.

I haven't experienced anything quite so hard to process; it's like the life you are living just stops, time stops. All your hopes and dreams disappear but you're scared to visualise new ones.

Fear and hope become an infusion. Living looks harder than dying. Even drawing on decades worth of recovery feels inadequate. Dancing endlessly between strength and collapse becomes an hourly activity.

Chemotherapy is starting soon which I'm desperate for and terrified of in equal measure.

I'm hopeful I'll recover enough to live a life worth living, but I can't be sure.

I think that goes some way to describing it #myeloma #livingwithcancer

Remembering Victoria Climbié 🙏🏾❤️

Victoria died in 2000, aged 8, after being abused by her guardians. Her death led to a public inquiry + produced major changes in UK child protection policies.

Today would’ve been her 33rd Birthday.

2 Nov 1991 - 25 Feb 2000

🙏🏾❤️

If you disagree with the Daily Express that “a majority of Brits” now support leaving the European Convention on Human Rights RT this as widely as you can

[Snow @Lookinupatstars]

This is Neal Holder, the Head of Holderness Academy, who shames his less wealthy pupils by putting them in isolation for wearing cheaper school uniform.

Retweet if you think social segregation is not the role of a Head teacher.

I… I.. literally cannot even believe (in the current financial climate where parents are feeling proud just to survive the month financially) that a school.. A SCHOOL! could be this vindictive & just.. well, so cruel.

[The Figen @TheFigen_]

Love it! 👏💕

We hope our #BairnsHoose is the first of many where children can access a high standard of support under one roof. We can’t always stop bad things happening to children but we can do everything in our power to help them to recover. @VSScotland @EdinburghUni @Childrenengland

As we all know, Parky was from Yorkshire, as was David Bowie's dad.

This is a corker 👊

[Dr Dan Goyal @danielgoyal]

Every single word Andrew says is factual and he expresses the sense of despair so many of us on the frontline feel…

This govt do not deserve to be guardians of our NHS!

Pls RT the hell out of this!

[NHS Million @NHSMillion]

Please spare a RT for all the porters across the NHS who keep our NHS going every single day.

We are so grateful to all of you.
