Whilst a lot of us are entertained by the shenanigans over at @ITV , please understand that what we're witnessing is actual violence. What we've seen of Dr Shola, Charlene and Alex is direct dismissal & victimisation of them, their truth and their experiences. This is not OK.

We are too comfortable with this being played out on live television, take it from someone who knows all too well, this is a traumatic experience. They don't just leave this sh!t at the office, it gets taken home with them, and may spill out into their real lives. This is not OK.

The fact you chose this segment of your show exposes your complicity in highlighting and amplifying the views of your bigotted panellist. Someone's mental health status is not open to debate or opinion. But you allow it, ask yourselves why. I already know the answer.
