This week I wrote about how millions of vulnerable and disabled people are no longer eligible for a covid booster. Here's a petition you can sign to stop that happening petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73... (and the article www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...)
petition.parliament.uk
Petition: Fund NHS COVID boosters for Clinically Vulnerable people – keep covid boosters
'Protect the NHS' and 'Save Lives' by continuing to fund NHS COVID boosters for Clinically Vulnerable people, including most previously shielded as CEV, rather than limiting them to over-75s, care home residents and those with severely weakened immune systems.

A SERIOUS request to @michaelrbloomberg.bsky.social — please create an account for Bloomberg Citylab here on @bsky.app. Citylab has been an excellent platform for articles about cities (I used to write for it, and @langealexandra.bsky.social won a Pulitzer for it!). REPOST if you support Citylab.

looking through the results this morning and, you know what, I always imagined I'd enjoy the death throes of the Conservative Party a lot more than this

George Monbiot on Ukraine/Putin: “It’s as if he’d come to the UK, he’d occupied Kent, Surrey, Sussex & then somebody else like Donald Trump comes along & says fine guys just live with that. These people who go on about sovereignty will sell anyone down the river” 👏

Excellent piece in a week when the 'economically inactive' are targeted. 4 in 10 parents of children with special educational needs have stopped working [prob higher figure in reality] with mothers are hit hardest. There's much that sibling carers will see in this too. #SEND #familycarer

I wrote about the way the SEND crisis is quietly unpicking women's lives - destroying careers, dismantling relationships, damaging physical and mental health. And all this goes on unacknowledged. Long read for The i Paper: inews.co.uk/inews-lifest...
