Our Saturday night movie was #DarkWaters with #MarkRuffalo about a lawyer who took on the chemical company Dupont for contaminating water supplies with PFOA/C8 - to you & me Teflon - poisoning thousands of people in West Virginia, USA. Really worth a watch! Have a good weekend!

You can kinda understand why Anti-Racism protesters tore down the Statue of a slave trader, right? Maybe it’s just me. He was also an MP. Fuck off does it undermine their cause! 🖕
Home Secretary Priti Patel says the toppling of a statue of slaver Edward Colston in Bristol is "utterly disgraceful" and 'undermines' anti-racism protests.

Proportion of salary covered by sick pay
🇩🇪100%
🇧🇪93%
🇸🇪64%
🇳🇱56%
🇪🇸42%
🇬🇧29%
Statutory sick pay in the UK is just £95.85 a week - and 2 million don’t earn enough to qualify.
People can’t afford to self-isolate on that. They need #SickPayForAll that meets the cost of living.

So, is your MP letting Cummings get away with it? Relying on boredom and short attention spans? We shouldn't let them. To be clear, the damage to trust is laid squarely @BorisJohnson door and his failure to place Country above one Individual. if we let this go its what we deserve
