'I'm not a stranger - neither are millions of others like me' | BPS Chartered Psychologist Dr Bruno de Oliveira reacts to UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer's 'island of strangers' comment.

'I'm not a stranger - neither are millions of others like me'

Chartered Psychologist Dr Bruno de Oliveira reacts to UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer's 'island of strangers' comment.

'Imagine the intergenerational impact we could've had if psychology had taken a stand against homophobia, colonialism, and racism sooner.'

The irony of a 'healing' profession that is complicit in causing and perpetuating systemic harm.

I'm angry - but I'm learning how to make my anger useful.

Wonderful work - thank you ❤️

Wes Streeting said it was “extremely concerning and should not have been allowed to happen” that a change of gender wipes out a trans doctor's disciplinary history.

But it simply wasn't true.

Will @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social apologise for spreading disinformation?

Over the weekend the Government of Israel blocked all aid into Gaza, making an already dangerous situation even more desperate.

Nearly all 1.1 million children are in dire need of food and water.

We are urging the UK Government to use its power and influence to lift the blockade.

Many autistic people are queer and/or trans, and are suffering as a result of contemporary politics and withdrawal of healthcare.

Millions of autistic people have been abused and traumatized by ABA, including myself.

I haven't been in ABA since 1997 and I'm still managing the trauma today.

Image is a beige slide titled Sowing A Seed Sunday which is in a dark greenish colour at the top of the slide in capital letters. Next to the title in the top right is my logo, a world with the Rainbow Neurodiversity symbol across It and the words NT In A ND World in light yellow I've the top of the Neurodiversity symbol. In the middle of the page is a quote from a book I have read. This is in the same greenish colour in Open Dyslexic font. This week’s comes from Audre Lorde. The quote reads “There is no such thing as a single-issue struggle because we do not live single-issue lives.”

Welcome to another #SowingASeedSunday

Every thought is like a seed that grows and becomes a part of our reality.

This week’s comes from Audre Lorde.

“There is no such thing as a single-issue struggle because we do not live single-issue lives.”

So friendly despite probably being in pain :-(
Thank you for taking such good care of him Dr Ahmed and Razak - he's in the best of hands. Hoping for a speedy recovery now. ❤️

I'm so sorry you've been through so much - you don't deserve it, you never did. I hope there are some good people in your life now, people who are reliably there for you (not just your therapist, although that's a start).

Greetings from another long time loyal subject! Delighted to find King Maxi making his appearance here 😍.

Today, our gentle reminder that there isn't an 'astonishing' rise in autistic people.
We've always been here.
Most of us weren't counted in the figures, before, because they were looking for the young white boys who collect trains.
They got better at finding us.
Thanks for reading.

Not surprising. I often help my young autistic clients apply for PIP and when they're successful the difference it makes can be quite astonishing.

I'm not Canadian but if we end up in the same position here in the UK I'd like to hear our leaders talking like this!

YouTube video by CBC News Trudeau: Canada will retaliate with 25% tariffs on $155B of U.S. goods

It’s worth watching Trudeau’s excellent speech in full youtu.be/xiaACQpFUfE

That's 100% my experience every year 🤣 - how about a #NotBigGardenBirdwatch for the rest of the day?

Thank you - it feels validating to read this piece Darren.

For parents whose autistic teens/young adults 'hate' New Year!

Our 2diverse newsletters are usually just for subscribers, but I thought this month's offering might have a wider appeal so I've decided to share it!

This image is of a colourful religious icon. In the foreground are Mary and Joseph protectively holding the baby Jesus. Joseph also has his arm round Mary. They are surrounded on all sides by rubble. In the background are bombed and burning buildings, some toppled and learning, and in the night sky a bright star shines. Mary, Joseph and baby Jesus have golden halos around their heads. Mary wears robes of blue and purple and Joseph wears turquoise and deep orange. Baby Jesus is swaddled. The Holy Family are brown skinned, Mary has her head covered and Joseph is bare headed with a dark beard.

I like words but sometimes images are so much better.

I attended an excellent online webinar by Renaissance Legal on this subject - they really seemed to know what they were talking about: www.renaissancelegal.co.uk

That's brilliant! Thank you Sonny 😄

I especially love this snail! I have a whole spiel about snails when meeting parents of autistic young people and would love to make one/several as a visual aid. Are the instructions you used on the internet somewhere?
