I followed the rules, my mother died alone in a covid ward. They lied, broke the rules they made, broke the law while in office. Their β€œunreserved” apologies and supporting MPs have me so upset I am nauseous. Deeply sad for the state of our society allowing any of this to happen.

Today was the worst shift I've ever had in the ambulance service. The entire system has collapsed. We're no longer practicing emergency medicine. We're just desperately trying to put out fires & triage the sickest patients but it's just not enough.

To all those who couldn’t see loved ones in hospital last December. Who couldn’t hold their hand. I see you. My mum was fighting for her life on the 18th as they partied. She passed without her family by her side on the 29th. As if this Christmas wasn’t going to be hard enough.

Snuggle up with the family, the pets, the duvet, and watch this today. Let it move, inspire and compel you to stand up and act for this glorious and miraculous planet of ours, as if your life depended on it. Because it does. #bethechange #Attenborough

I continue to live in a way that protects everyone & helps to limit the emergence of variants. I consider the life of every human valuable. I listen to the science about what will end the ongoing pandemic. I believe in shared humanity & true leadership, not political propaganda.

Don’t get mad at me. I know we’re all so tired and wrecked from this, I myself lost my mum to covid, but please please listen to this and pass it on to everyone you know and love. This is common sense. This is how we beat this pandemic.

β€œThere is always room for debate around opinions. There is no room for debate around facts. We have to make lying wrong again.” A.Guterres Climate denial is a waste of space when useful debates around the best routes forward to solving the climate crisis are urgently needed.

While it's important to engage with those who disagree, as a former Physics teacher I'll always stand up for the science. Tackling climate change means investing in new technologies, driving innovation. Failing to take the risk seriously would simply be catastrophic.

The science is clear on this. Badger culls don’t work. They are not the answer. @DefraGovUK please do the right thing for the good of farming and wildlife. Please listen to the @WildlifeTrusts and the many other organisations providing all the accurate evidence you need.

DEFRA consultation appears to support indefinite culling of badgers. A 🧡. Their 5-week consultation on badger control policy, launched on March 14th, is wholly inadequate. (1/4)

”The costs of action are dwarfed by the costs of inaction” Even from an economic standpoint (which, let’s not kid ourselves, got us into this climate catastrophe in the first place) it’s a no brainer. Come on world leaders. Enough already. #bethechange .
