Productive meeting with Baroness Merron and campaigner @hopevirgo.bsky.social to discuss eating disorder prevention and treatment. Eating disorder cases are skyrocketing- yet treatment is often underfunded and misunderstood. I will keep pushing the government to make eating disorders a priority.

Reminder than anyone of us can become disabled in a matter of seconds. All it takes is one accident, one symptom, one illness. It might not be you facing destitution today, but it could be tomorrow. Be kind. Fight back. #DisabilityBenefits

Whatever this heinous Government says today, please remember lots of people will be fighting back. Take time out if you need, remember that you matter as you are worthy of being here and being supported.

Behind the headlines and the stigmatising language about disability benefits are real people - millions of them. People who are scared about what this news might mean for their day-to-day lives. 1/2

Being disabled is not a choice. It’s not a “lifestyle”. It’s not sitting at home all day enjoying life. It’s being disabled. It’s having life-limiting g health conditions. It’s constant pain, debilitating symptoms, and never being able to truly enjoy life to the fullest.

Absolutely horrified that a government we all thought would be marginally better is choosing to cut benefits for the most vulnerable members of society in the middle of the cost of living crisis. Disabled people are already living in poverty. Immoral and wrong. #disabilitybenefits

If you could find a way to generate electricity from Ronald Reagan spinning in his grave you'd be able to power the Eastern Seaboard right now.

Please do sign this petition we've been working on with Birmingham for Ukraine. Our initial research suggests roughly 30% of Ukrainians in the UK have had problems renewing/getting tenancy agreements and/or job contracts because of difficulties with visas. postsocialistbritain.bham.ac.uk/ukraine/
