I went out out, my social battery was drained within an hour 😅 how do people do this?!

[Andy McDonald MP for Middlesbrough & Thornaby East @AndyMcDonaldMP]

Sainsbury's CEO Simon Roberts total pay for 2022/23 was £4.9m.

On a 40 hour week, that's over £2k/hour.

His lowest-paid workers earn just £11/hour.

I asked how on earth that's justifiable, especially during a cost of living crisis.

The silence was deafening.

One of our year 5 children has recently lost her mum. We were writing persuasive letters in English this week and she wrote this gorgeous letter. Any kind of message or response would be amazing. Please share. @DUALIPA @MrBoothY6 @Mat_at_Brookes @Talk4Writing @JamieThomasTFW

No woman should be in prison for making decisions about her own body.

This shocking case highlights the urgent need to change the law.

Abortion is healthcare. It must be decriminalised, now.

[Hannah Al-Othman @HannahAlOthman]

I’ll be in court today as a woman is sentenced for ending her pregnancy beyond the time limit during lockdown.

It is understood that she was not able to attend a scan, and did not know how advanced it was.

She pleaded guilty to the offence, which carries a max. life sentence.

🚨BREAKING: National Grid has requested a COAL-FIRED power station in the East Midlands to be warmed up - to cope with more people using air conditioners.

We're using MORE coal to cool down the effects of the coal we're using. It makes no sense.

The Satsuma Complex - Bob Mortimer
3.5/5

I only bought this because it was written by Bob Mortimer, so it didn’t surprise me that the writing wasn’t the best. However, the story is captivating and it makes a nice quick read.

Today is one of those days where I’ve sat down and thought… I’m proud of myself

I’m proud I finally took the plunge and started uni
I’m proud that I keep finding the motivation to carry on
I’m proud I’m not letting those few people get me down
