We are a rich country. This from @ONS is so shocking:
“around 1 in 20 (5%) of adults reported that in the past two weeks they had ran out of food and had been unable to afford more, this proportion appeared higher among groups including; those receiving support from charities (45%), living in a household with one adult and at least one child (28%), receiving some form of benefits or financial support (21%), Mixed or Multiple ethnicity adults (14%), Black, African, Caribbean or Black British adults (13%), renters (14%) and disabled adults (9%)”

"What About Men?" has been out a week now, and favourite chapters are starting to become apparent. This one is definitely in the top three ... encompassing Jam-inspired trouser-problems, the "loveable" nature of balls, and Donald Trump.

Ahhhh, man, can't deny: I cried when I heard. "What About Men?" has gone straight in at Number One. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU if you bought it! I find it utterly bizarre it's been so controversial on social media - whilst in real life, the mums, dads & teachers at my gigs have been going "It's all just obvious and true."

The Kinnocks are one of the most kind and loving families I have ever encountered. Every one of them is encouraging and thoughtful. This made me weep and smile. We must all do more to help dementia and Alzheimer's research. Lovely Glenys. thetimes.co.uk/article/mums-…

Our Pal Rachel is very poorly in the ICU. Her mum has asked if we can help get @5SOS to send Rachel a message that can be played to her in hospital.
Can you help us share and get the word to @5SOS

At a nationalistic rally in Moscow, Putin quotes from the Bible: “greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.”
A deeply troubling & blasphemous use of scripture.

"To liberate people from this suffering, from the genocide, is the main inspiring motive of the military operation we started in Donbas and in Ukraine"

This year’s #InternationalWomensDay theme was #BreakTheBias, an opportunity for women to tell their story and highlight the detrimental frequency & impact of bias.
Thank you to the women lawyers who worked with us to share their aspirations for a profession liberated from bias.
