So many times I should have called but stupidly allowed work to stop me. Now I would give anything to hear my wonderful mums voice. If you are lucky enough to have your mum call her now, tell her how much you love her and let her know how much she means to you ❤️

If UK news shows are going to give Nigel Farage a platform to spout this absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it

We cannot allow them to rewrite history.

If you agree share this FACT CHECK widely

NO Nigel Farage - the vaccine rollout was not helped by Brexit

It started with conspiracy and propaganda then evolved into dehumanisation - spreading distrust, fear and disgust about the target. The powerless were given a group to blame, the illusion of power. The techniques used now are the same. It’ll only happen again if people let it.

Sadly, they are…

WARNING: The HIV Language Guide, developed by NIAID to prevent the use of stigmatising language related to HIV, has been taken off US Government websites.
This is frightening.
If there are resources you need, esp. related to sexual or reproductive health, download them now.

They need to keep calling this out! We really need more voices out there challenging the far-right. In my opinion the amount of right-wing propaganda is staggering. Then anything left leaning is deemed as woke. The mainstream media don’t seem to be doing anything about it.
France’s President Macron stated that Elon Musk is "directly intervening in elections, including Germany" and "supporting a new reactionary international."

At least 3 other European leaders Olaf Scholz, Keir Starmer & Jonas Gahr Støre have called out Musk in last 24 hours.

Labour’s manifesto promised to “remove indignities for trans people”, yet the government’s ban on puberty blockers adopts the Tories’ politicised unevidenced approach.

Young people — cis & trans — must have access to healthcare they need. I stand firmly with the trans community.

Remember, if you buy a Tesla, new or used, you're helping bankroll Musk.

Do the right thing.

Today is World AIDS Day, when we remember those we have lost to HIV. The red ribbon is the international symbol for HIV awareness and support for people living with HIV.

It’s a promise to support people living with HIV. It’s a pledge to end new cases of HIV by 2030. #WorldAidsDay
