Never uses X. Only uses X for work. And now occasionally for improvised musicals! If @TheShowstoppers comes to a theatre near you go! Normal Pandas service to resume shortly. 😆🐼💛

@TheShowstoppers BeetleJuice as a musical. The oldest child can't sweat. Roller coaster becomes record braking due to impressive rake! Love Greggs seats

Our newest preprint, sharing the voices of 136 autistic children, sheds important light into why autistic children are so vulnerable to School Distress & just how hard they have to work to navigate daily life #autistic #Autism @nicolaleaking @KieranRose7 https://t.co/CdvEQZjTya

@KieranRose7 Adds 'doing the impossible' to my bio. It's an honour as always to work with you.

The pre-publish research results are now LIVE and available for you to view. Find the paper here:
We had a really large number of autistic children involved, and we hope that we have done their voice justice.

92.1% of children with school attendance problems were neurodivergent.
The new school fine system in place this September is a tax on vulnerable families.

#ActuallyAutistic CYP have a right to have safe conversations about being Autistic in safe places, with safe people. They are not a series of points in a book that call them disordered. "They need to know that they are a great panda, not a failed polar bear." 👏🐼 @nicolaleaking

[Nic King of Pandas @nicolaleaking]

@DrAmyPearson Stunning! 💛

[Nic King of Pandas @nicolaleaking]

@HollytheOT Yep - conversation goes, 'don't like that we've broken the law', please proceed to doing years of unpaid labour while we stomp on your human / disabilty rights and even then its David and goliath and you might just have to accept that you don't have the power

@milton_damian Secondary gains, early death, discrimination, abuse, poverty, isolation... 🙄

[Nic King of Pandas @nicolaleaking]

Excited to share our results with our young people from the study tonight. The rest of you must bear with us until it's published. The young people's voices have been compelling in this study. They've been amazing! (safe adults were patient too) See you soon! @SineadMullally4
