Another key piece of legislation to address the issue @jessphillipsmp.bsky.social and @teamlabouruk.bsky.social promised to tackle. Actions matter. Cultural change takes longer but starts with actions such as this. 👏👏👏

@mscaitlinmoran.bsky.social A great article. Thank you and all others who donate. I believe your article will help drive more donors to address the current blood shortage.

Really interesting read and tools I will be exploring over next few days. Understanding regional spend can provide additional insights.

Challenging preconceptions and forging new pathways for women...

Thank you 👏👏👏👏👏

I may not have made myself clear. I totally respect the huge amount of work Jess has done. My comment was a suggestion that she would be exactly the person to pick up his work and work with him to develop this aspect as well. My prior posts evidence my commitment in this area re Jess.

Perhaps someone the government should be working with in the fight against violence against women @jessphillipsmp.bsky.social ? Building a better future for young men is something they not only deserve but also challenges some of the toxic role models out there.

Beth's fundraiser in memory of Laura Walmsley Help Beth Rigby raise money to support North London Hospice

Having recently lost my great friend to cancer I recognise the motivation behind @bethrigby.bsky.social in fundraising and need to take action in the name of one she lost who meant so much.
If you can support, please do, for those lost and those still with us.

The cold weather isn’t over yet.

SWEP remains in place until Monday 17 March. Emergency accommodation will be open to anyone sleeping rough. If you see someone in need, alert StreetLink and help them out of the cold.

With the announcement of the abolition of NHS England and 50% cuts to ICBs, a great deal will change in commissioning of services. How these changes support the better use of 3rd sector organisations is one of the unknowns. The sector needs to speak up & shape decision making at the highest levels.

Sorry to hear that.

Agreed. 👍

YouTube video by ITV News Jess Phillips reads names of UK women killed by men last year, including the Hunt family | ITV News

Sadly, another year when @jessphillipsmp.bsky.social reads the list of women killed by men. Tragic BUT Jess now taking real tangible actions to reduce this number. No one has more passion for this challenge.

Action on the report of Baroness Gabby Burton @jessphillipsmp.bsky.social ? Is this something you will be able to progress? Although commissioned by prior government, findings have value and there is a need to consider in respect to violence against women.

@citybridgefndn.bsky.social great to see a significant charity funder on this platform. Sends a message about values. Great organisation and thanks for the funding to our older people work in Westminster. @ageukwestminster.bsky.social

Hi. A few Westminster organisations on. I'm with @ageukwestminster.bsky.social and know @ageukbarnet.bsky.social @ageukrichmond.bsky.social also on. Be good to see who else your post identifies. 👍😁

Pause for a while and read this.
Powerful consideration and analysis of a brief period of time.
What does this mean for the next 4 years minimum?

"So this is how liberty dies… " Making sense of Trump's first three weeks Where I categorise 69 Trump administration actions from the last 3 weeks and show how they align with the authoritarian playbook

Absolutely chilling post by @chrischirp.bsky.social setting out how T rump is aggressively mobilising a classic authoritarian playbook. I did not think I would see the death of American democracy (and American science) in my lifetime. #academicsky

Grief in the Workplace: Navigating Loss, Leadership, and the Weight of the World Grief doesn’t clock out when stepping into the office. It doesn’t wait for a convenient moment, nor does it respect deadlines or meeting schedules.

Following a recent bereavement, I have found it supportive to have colleagues ensuring they check in, being open to conversations and encouraging self care.

Thirteen minutes that are well worth a listen. Stormy times when allies turn. Measured speech and actions as a response.

The good human bit.... few events recently due to challenging family health and relationship issues etc when my daughters have both, in very intuitive and personal ways, shown themselves to be good humans.

More than anything in my life this makes me proud.

Have written about why we should take Trump seriously on Greenland and what is going on with his evolving sense of geopolitics.

A point of rupture between the US and Europe is coming: Britain will likely be forced to pick a side, or be adrift.
