Mental ill-health is often considered with a kind of suspicion by policy makers and governments. It's easy to isolate an imaginary set of malingerers that exist in cash-strapped budget holders head and then look for ways to include as many people as possible in that category with a few key presses

The last 25 years has seen a perpetual goldilocks dance in policy and perception around mental ill-health. Under diagnosis and lack of support is seen as a scandal until the costs of treating this seriously are manifest, then it's 'there's too much, there must be mistakes somewhere in counting'

Always amused (not amused) at how regularly the idea that there is a 'right' amount of mental ill-health in British society and that we must somehow return there. Declaring the correct amount of mental ill-health based on what you are prepared to pay to mitigate its effects isn't how reduction works

Seeing that Girl Guides are seeing an "exodus" of volunteers and supporters and even losing ambassadors after their decision to ban trans girls, and hey maybe your old pal Slurms might know what he's talking about sometimes eh
These are close knit circles and word *will* get around if their choice is a disaster, loads of volunteers leave and donations drop because they've capitulated. Then other organisations might think twice about following suit. Just saying.

Not to be overly obvious here, but many people seeking asylum need phones to keep in touch with loved ones, access crucial information etc. Having a phone isn't a "luxury item" anymore. It is a necessity for many people. Taking it away has serious implications.

I'm sorry but having your party riddled with 1/3 transphobes is pathetic but at least that's them corralled there i guess.
🚨 BREAKING | Your Party has voted to enshrine trans rights into the party's founding policy documents.
Two motions, which both passed with a supermajority (with 10,000+ people voting) committed the new party to explicitly supporting "trans liberation".

disability benefits fraud is at 0.0something% and minuscule compared to the benefits unclaimed by ppl entitled to them but put off by stigma and an already cruel and humiliating system.
Balancing "no person with a disability should be denied accommodations" with "it's important to discourage non-disabled people from pretending to be disabled to take advantage of these accommodations" is really difficult and I don't have a great answer for what anyone should do about it.

These kinds of actions are never driven by a sense that things are overdiagnosed by the way, they're driven by a belief that mental health conditions either don't actually exist or that those that live with them deserve not only no support but also deserve the conditions they have.
This is basically going to be "Get off your phone and into work" isn't it?

✨Fertile Min✨
This #PhallusThursday we step away from ancient Rome (briefly) to visit ancient Egypt. Min was a god venerated since the 4th millennium BCE!
Usually Min is depicted as a male figure with an erect phallus and he holds a flail. In later Greek thinking, Min was associated with Pan.

Considering Streeting's well stated belief autism, ADHD etc, along with mental health issues, are "overdiagnosed", I won't hold my breath for this doing anything other than being used to cut support, along with opportunities for diagnosis, for people who need it. #r4today
