One of the biggest social problems I see is that we have to work until 67 but it gets harder and harder to get a job after 50.

Mr. Burnham, sir, it’s time for leadership. It’s time for definitive action. You must, this very hour, insert a pointed allusion to the blackshirts trying to kill charity workers into the speech you’re due to give to Labour Party Conference next week. A nation waits.

With three teams taking on the Peak District Challenge we raised £3,600 for Manchester Mind over the weekend. So, this is how I'm going to work today...

one of my proudest moments was being told by a former Gove staffer that he once angrily proclaimed: "I am NOT an eldritch horror!" in a team meeting, because of me.

As a pragmatic centrist, I read the Niemöller poem differently. After each group mentioned I pencil in what percentage of the population they are, and if it’s a small number I cross off their names as disposable. Poetry is fine but math wins elections!!

I'd also love to see "Dr Who-okland". But it would probably step slowly to one side on hearing the TARDIS dematerialising.

Patients with ADHD will no longer be formally diagnosed. Instead people will be encouraged to say ‘oh, he’s just a bit, you know,’ while doing a new hand gesture designed to indicate, you know, that he’s a bit like that

To support this:: On Friday this week I'm leading 3 Ultra-Distance noobies around a 75km trail in the Peak District. 2 colleagues will take on their first 50km Ultra, and another colleague will attempt a 25km trail run. (A combined total of 425km in distance, and 10km in climbing)

If you struggle with your mental health asking for help is an isolating and overwhelming experience. The Welcome Team at Manchester Mind offer space, by phone and in person, for people to talk openly and freely with others with shared experiences. www.manchestermind.org/our-services...

What I love about Western democracy is you can bung a political party £ 36 million earned from criminal activity & most media will continue to point at asylum seekers & migrant care workers with families as the barbarians at the gate we need to defend ourselves from 🙄.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Belisha beacons on fire off Chambercombe Manor. I watched cats eyes glitter in the dark near Wildersmouth Beach. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in Devon rain. Time to die.
In a letter posted online and attributed to the “Ilfracombe Blade Runners”, the group claims the sensors fitted to pedestrian crossings in the town are an “imminent threat to life”.

In posts shared online, the Blade Runners describe the "electronic assault weapons” as “illegal battlefield derived technology” and allege that manufacturers and authorities have misled the public about its purpose and safety.

I know I’m largely mutuals with people with a similar world view to my own (and some who’ve been quiet allowing the dignity of plausible deniability). But, kinell, our species is fucked. Don’t see hedgehogs pulling this shit. Don’t see racist lemurs or gender critical swans. Embarrassed for us.

Maybe Dr James Orr was only hired by the University of Cambridge as they needed to get the quota of white male academics up. His fall from grace is perhaps due to his over-promotion and the fact that rich white men aren't really suited to positions of trust and authority. #r4today #Arday
