Incredibly poignant cartoon by ⁦@mortenmorland⁩ in today’s Times. If you know someone who lives alone, perhaps bereaved, for whom today may hit especially hard, perhaps give them a ring later on 🖤

Look carefully. Really carefully. What do you see?

I looked up "whistleblower" on Thesaurus.com, and this is what it gave me. Perhaps it's a sign of how little we value those who tell the truth.

It's not about a Zoom quiz or a glass of wine on a patio or whatever. That's what they want to reduce it to. It's about somebody remembering their mum dying alone because they did the right thing & now feeling awful wondering why they didn't break the rules to be with them.

"He was taken weeks short of his 11th birthday. My son spoke of hoping to save the world in his lifetime. Sadly, he did not live to realise his dreams"- Richard Taylor OBE Today marks 21 years since 10-year-old Damilola Taylor was murdered on his way home from the library. RIP🤍

Where this pandemic is concerned, we're all in the same storm but we are not all in the same boat. Some are in huge yachts and can hardly feel a ripple, some are in smaller boats which are listing slightly to port, some are rowing, exhausted and some are in the water, drowning.

The artist Abigail McGourlay is the winner of @TheArtsSociety’s national isolation Artwork competition – with her self-portrait #Brewing which depicts drinking tea in a warm bubble bath – two things she’s found comforting in lockdown: bbc.in/3iKen9t

Just heartbreaking. Govt sat on their hands whilst theatres fall one at a time. We are calling on govt to speak out - tell us what time frame you’re looking at to announce rescue package. Lack of leadership and transparency is pure cultural vandalism.
The entire artistic team at the Theatre Royal Plymouth are being made redundant in 3 days. That’s one of the largest, most well attended theatres outside London. A theatre that now has no artists, and they won’t be coming back. Our world-beating cultural landscape is in collapse

“You cannot enjoy the rhythm and ignore the blues” This is incredibly powerful from @claraamfo on the death of George Floyd, racism and its effect on her own mental health.

People still congregating in busy spaces saying ‘it’s the Dunkirk sprit’, need to understand that in this scenario they’re actually being the Luftwaffe.

Holy shit. Katie Porter holds the CDC Director's feet to the fire and gets him to commit to FREE TESTING for coronavirus for ALL AMERICANS. Watch every second of this.

I said nothing about allegations agst Caroline Flack because we have trial in courts not in media or in court of public opinion Her tragic death is a symptom of something terribly wrong with the cult of celebrity & how we forget they are human beings My thoughts with her family💔

Once arrived at an event and they barred my way & were nasty with it. 'D'you have a ticket?' 'No, I don't. I'm-' 'Then you'll have to leave. It's sold out. You can't come in.' 'If I leave then so does everyone else as they've all paid to hear me speak.' Red faces all round. 🙃

Final speech. It was painful. I hold in my heart the knowledge that one day I will be back in this chamber, celebrating our return to the heart of Europe.

Charisma doesn’t treat my patients’ pain, Piers. It doesn’t magic nurses from air to reopen closed hospice beds. It doesn’t treat cancer like a radioisotope does. It doesn’t replace the 2500 nurses who’ve left due to Brexit. No Deal will kill patients. Sod ‘charisma’.
The reason @BorisJohnson will probably win this leadership race is because he has charisma & he’s following someone with the least charisma in British political history. Boris is no Mother Teresa but he’s smart, funny & entertaining - I’d rather that as PM than a dull robot.

Measles cases have *quadrupled* in England in just one year. Measles can - and does - cause brain damage, disability & death. If you’re thinking of not vaccinating your kids, please, please chat to a nurse or doctor. The anti-vax movement is deadly. bbc.co.uk/news/health-480395…
