Habemus Papam

As a raised Catholic (non-practicing now) I watched the conclave hoping for a leader of integrity & compassion.

Encouraged by #PopeLeo focus on dialogue, opposition to Trump’s immigration policies & advocacy for the environment.

Hope he brings clarity to a chaotic world. 🌍 #NewPope

Kemi, luv, JK Rowling is not owed anything. Certainly isn’t owed an apology from the minorities she’s actively victimised and harassed online for years with her dangerous and transphobic rhetoric.

Shame on you. This isn’t the hill to die on #KemiBadenoch #TransWomenAreWomen vm.tiktok.com/ZNdYR8MhE/

Discussion on Employer NIC β€œit was weighed in the balance … unpopular opinion … but we had to raise the Β£26bn needed for public sector”.

Totally ignoring the contributions the sector makes to keep essential services open and the consequences this will have to the people most at need #SCVOGathering

πŸ’¬ β€œYou’ve been punching below your weight” and β€œyou’ve not stepped into leadership” is not necessarily the message I expected from @kirstymcneill.bsky.social addressing #SCVOGathering

Hard message when the sector props up state contacts by Β£2.4bn & 62% charities deliver without full cost recovery.

β€œThere’s no point having an aspiration if there’s no plan to meet that aspiration”

Great in conversation with Gordon Brown who was funny, thought provoking, and proving real concrete examples with how to support the sector raise the Β£Bn’s needed to meet essential need. #SCVOGathering #ThirdSector

Steven Bartlett sharing harmful health misinformation on Diary of CEO podcast Disproven health claims are accepted with little challenge by host on number one podcast, BBC investigation finds.

Is this the beginning of the end for Bartlett's credibility? Diary of a CEO found to have spread harmful health misinformation, from debunked cancer "cures" to anti-vax claims - all with little challenge! Do we need Ofcom regulation for podcasts? πŸ€” #HealthMisinformation www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Ipswich captain Sam Morsy refuses to wear Pride armband for Stonewall match Morsy was the only of 20 participating captains to not wear the armband during matches meant to promote LGBTQ+ inclusivity in sport.

⚽️ So let me get this right, a charity football match specifically arranged in aid of promoting inclusivity and equality for #LGBTQI minorities is headed by a captain who doesn’t subscribe to promoting those values? πŸ€”

What a poor show from @ipswichtown.bsky.social
