The implications of this eventually published study are shocking.
PBs are not given as a ‘pause button’ to ensure children make the right choice for them. They are given to “trans” kids’’ to cement in dysphoria.

The book is dedicated to the awesome @LindaBurnip and the much missed Debbie Jolly, co-founders of @Dis_PPL_Protest. So many of us owe them so much.

Am I the only one concerned over this list of disabled & older people that the government are giving to supermarkets? Aren't they a business so after all this is over won't they sell that list to insurance companies & banks? Not sure I'm a fan of the list at all tbh. – at Camden Town, London

Michael is still poorly but continuing to improve. He has been able to eat today & will be getting a more comfortable oxygen mask soon. All good signs. He does know you've all been rooting for him with this lovely wave of support. Thanks again, Emma x @Underthecranes @J0e_R0sen

Looks as if the #FreedomOfInformationAct has in practice been suspended during #COVID19 crisis
I've had several emails from #DWP and @ICOnews all suggesting (altho not stating explicitly) I should not expect anything further until the crisis is over.

The poor, disabled and elderly ARE expendable in our system because human worth is tied to one's ability to be 'economically productive'.
Toby Young's view is a disgusting one but it's at the heart of the system which shapes most of our lives.
It's just not often said out loud.

Michael Gove claims the UK is lagging behind on #COVID19 testing because of a global chemical shortage. But Germany has been able to get enough chemicals for testing 500,000 per week.
Why didn't the government use February and early March to get the chemicals we need?

Well my poor brother has found he needs a chest ultrasound as his chest infection could be Covid19 & then his boss rang to make him redundant. At 50. Less than 6 months after mum died. I can't even go see him as he's in isolation. – at Camden Town, London

1/2 @DavidLammy "When a deprived area is “redeveloped”, are we not meant to improve the lives of deprived people who already live there? Why does it take an influx of wealthy new people to an area before anyone bothers to invest in it?" @pollyn1 @emptyhomes @equalitytrust
