And what if you just don't want to banter with men about sex in your work place? What if, like, it's just NOT YOUR THING. So you say 'oh hey, no thanks' and the atmosphere goes sour. Your fault, you made everything difficult, and it affects if you're booked again, not if he is.

Because you are so embarrassed in that moment but you feel a fool/a prude/everyone has a job to do/you’ll wreck the shoot if you kick off etc. etc.

Save time and use the symptoms checker on NHS inform to help decide what to do next. If you have an urgent care need and your GP is closed, call 111 to get assessed and directed to the #RightCareRightPlace, often with a scheduled appointment.

Listen, if Taylor Swift suddenly gets awarded a contract to provide healthcare services to the NHS, is given part of the HS2 line to run or gets given a life peerage like Lord Siberia or whatever he’s called, then let’s chat about Starmer taking his kids to her concert shall we.

The reason 'people were having more babies' before 1911 was because modern contraception hadn't been invented and abortion was illegal. Maternal mortality was 26x higher than today and 10% of babies died at or soon after birth. It's a cautionary tale, not an aspiration.

Factcheck: Maternity pay has existed since 1911 & is essential for women to make informed, supported reproductive choices. It is also currently at a level where 71% of women worry 'a lot' about money during maternity leave and 35% of new mothers skip meals to afford to live.

NEW - Kemi Badenoch tells Times Radio that maternity pay has "gone too far." “We need to have more personal responsibility. There was a time when there wasn’t any maternity pay and people were having more babies.”

An excellent new film by @Roisin_Agnew gave me the perfect excuse to write about the broadcasting ban I grew up in AND speak with Chris Morris about the Day Today sketch which remains its biggest cultural legacy.
On democracy, voice actors, and helium.

“NHS is broken” rhetoric makes those of us on the front line feel completely disheartened and devalued.
My corner of the NHS is not broken.
As I’ve said before, the NHS is not one blob but a patchwork, many sections of which are saving lives and helping people every minute.

Today, Celine Dion’s management team and her record label, Sony Music Entertainment Canada Inc., became aware of the unauthorized usage of the video, recording, musical performance, and likeness of Celine Dion singing “My Heart Will Go On” at a Donald Trump / JD Vance campaign rally in Montana.
In no way is this use authorized, and Celine Dion does not endorse this or any similar use.
…And really, THAT song?
