Grateful I had the opportunity to present @rcpsych #PsychID2020. Icing on the cake: requests for my presentation&advice on setting up yoga groups in psych services. Shared enthusiasm for Drs to take active steps to empower ppl with mental illness & ID to improve physical health🍎

Be afraid. Be very afraid.
After the appalling way he’s handled Coronavirus, we definitely don’t want Boris Johnson to have more control over our NHS.
Please RT if you don’t either.

The #DomesticAbuseBill is currently going through Parliament. @KGadhok's letter to @pritipatel @ukhomeoffice highlights the links between #domesticabuse & communication needs & how @RCSLT members can support people who've experienced it & their children.

Johnson must go. There is no debate. His incompetence is crystal clear. The first rule of governance is competence. You simply cannot let tens of thousands of people die because of indifference, because of waiting and seeing, because of lack of preparation. Johnson must go.

For every hour we spend agonising over societal crimes of the past, we should probably allow a minute or two to wonder what we're doing now that will be similarly condemned a hundred years hence. Climate, obviously; animal rights, likewise. What else?

Covid-19 spreading too fast to lift lockdown in England. Agree with John & clear science advice. TTI has to be in place, fully working, capable dealing any surge immediately, locally responsive, rapid results & infection rates have to be lower. And trusted theguardian.com/world/2020/m…

Dominic Cummings has now admitted repeatedly breaking the lockdown rules.
Of course, he thinks he has an excuse - that those rules didn’t really apply to him - but we absolutely do not agree.
Please RT if you don’t either.
Grab 6 books within arms length, then tag 6 people to do the same. Thanks for the nomination @sallymorganslt ! @EVWINN105 @garethmradford @meishaSLT @SueRenton @NancySobriquet @ElyseLDSLT
