Spot on Nadia. Wish you were my MP.
Ten assaults a day on asylum seekers in Home Office care, figures reveal
These figures are appalling & without a doubt the real numbers are far higher. These contractors are paid a FORTUNE & they can’t even treat people decently. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
Good luck. Sorry I’m not there to see your presentation.
Happy birthday Ali! You’re nowhere near middle age 😁
Congratulations @dralistruthers.bsky.social well deserved. Such a great impactful project.

Books.
When buying books for gifts this holiday season, please don't buy from Amazon. Please shop at your local independent bookstore/bookseller. Ask for recommendations. If they don't have a particular book in stock, ask them to order it.
Support creatives, local businesses, and your community.
Beautiful tribute to a wonderful remarkable person. RIP Agnes.
Looking forward to connecting & reconnecting with people on here. So glad to close my other social media account & deactivate a toxic space
