Good morning friends,
We're not going to be posting Twitter anymore (because toxic people), but keeping the account open and checking every now and then so people can find Kip and keep memories alive.

@SkyNews It's not a slippery slope at all, there are much better positions to hold on this
We need to have a grown up conversation about finding palliative and hospice care.

@LostTransport @MikeEwins Yeah I think it's a flat out lie as well though

@TeamKipUK @MikeEwins I know the defence barrister was just trying to mitigate for his client but that's quite insulting to the court and the bereaved family
English

The defence claimed it was a "moment of madness", except the driver had been banned twice before. So a pattern of behaviour.
No family should suffer the loss of a child.

@JoeTegerdine Our condolences, standing with you in solidarity

I awoke to Joseph’s shallow breathing at 02:50 this morning, it’s something we’ve been expecting for months. We sat at his bedside and comforted him until his last breath at 03:14. Words cannot express the depth of grief that he has moved on, nor the tremendous joy that he is no longer suffering.
I look forward to the day that he and I will be able to run and jump and play together again.
I appreciate all of the love and support we received from the 𝕏 community. Your generosity made his life a little easier and more fun. Your love and concern made a huge difference.
@jimfarley98 and @FordPerformance thank you for giving him an experience of a lifetime. He wasn’t able to do much after that trip so the timing was perfect.
@TateTheTalisman , thank you for your generosity. Joseph wasn’t healthy enough to make it to Bali, but Japan was awesome. You hold a special place in our hearts.
@phoebesaid thank you for telling his story. Cancer is a horrible disease that hurts so many of us and too many suffer alone. I hope his life will continue to inspire people to embrace today and love more fully. He never lost his concern for others even in his darkest hour.
It is a privilege being his father. He will be missed.

@TeamKipUK Move over to @bluesky , encourage all followers to also move, and create a starter pack over there to help people find you. It is just like Twitter used to be before Musk.

Don't want to be on Twitter now it's Shitter, but also don't want to lose the beautiful network of #TeamKip and cancer-affected families that are such an amazing support.
Advice?

Trump is back. We have to be the resistance to racism, climate chaos & genocide. Climate justice activists & Palestine solidarity campaigners in Birmingham are joining forces during COP29. Another world is possible.

@BBCBreakfast So he has no plan for this completely foreseeable problem caused by his own government.
Meanwhile, hospices remain desperately underfunded and reliant on charity, and the health service remains desperately unable to accommodate the ill-thought ideas he comes up with.

'I recognise they need to be making decisions for the next financial year, so before Christmas'
Health Secretary Wes Streeting told #BBCBreakfast he will reveal shortly how he will help hospices facing increased costs due to a rise in National Insurance contributions announced in the Budget

And meeting up with the wonderful @DavidAHaslam who has known me my whole life but doesn't let that bother him!

A real highlight was meeting up with Lisa, our social worker from when Kip was first diagnosed. She was a great support to us and Kip had a lasting impression!

Fantastic time yesterday with my fellow @YLvsCancer Voice Board colleagues, and nearly 400 team members from across the country sharing vision and strategy. Really proud of my time on this, proud of everything the organisation does.

For obvious reasons Blue Sky is really taking off at the moment.
It would be great to see even more familiar faces from here - over there too!
