Am I the only person who can’t withdraw my #money (‘life savings’) from my @PostOffice online savings account due to what seems like a computer glitch? It’s been 2 months so far. They won’t provide email address to sort this quickly & insist on me writing in via post

@T_Deeney @nadhimzahawi As a fellow Brummie, former school leader and campaigner for more diverse texts in schools I fully agree with all points in your open letter. I currently train teachers and would love to support you. Do get in touch. The teachers of the future need to have this on their agenda

@SoniaWinifred So upset by this @SoniaWinifred totally unfair. You did completely the right thing. How can calling for a ceasefire be wrong? Try and stay on as an independent. Lambeth needs people with integrity

My actions on Wednesday 24 January voting FOR the ceasefire motion, resulting in disciplinary hearing on Monday 26 February left me no choice but to resign my position on Lambeth Council as Councillor for Knights Hill Ward with immediate effect.

Incredibly brave young lady #Tiwa speaking about the desperately under resourced mental health facilities. The statistics around race and poverty are quite shocking. @Carol17881670 @CarolLNewby @mck
Philip Sime@PhilipSimeITV

NEW: Britain's top psychiatrist has told @ITVNews the state of mental health care in the UK is 'shameful.' We were granted rare access to a secure mental health hospital. As services come under more pressure than ever before.

@JacquiMckenzie6 Absolutely appalling. Why wasn't he given an opportunity to work here and support others? This is so terribly sad and so unnecessary. This should not be allowed to Happen again but I fear it will.

@SWJ_1 @theRCN What are the RCN is doing to address the emotional and psychological impact of racism on BME nurses? Do you have the ethnic breakdown on nurses seeking help? We know that suicide rates vary demographically it would be good to have an approach that recognises that.

As we cover today’s story on the increased number of nursing staff disclosing suicidal ideation to @theRCN, remember you are not alone. Members can access advice, counselling & apply for financial hardship support: rcn.org.uk/Get-Help. Useful links for non-members too.
