Let's make it clear: living on the streets is not a ‘lifestyle choice’ - it is a sign of failed government policy. No one should be punished for being homeless. Criminalising people for sleeping in tents, and making it an offence for charities to help them, is unacceptable.
Suella Braverman@SuellaBraverman

The British people are compassionate. We will always support those who are genuinely homeless. But we cannot allow our streets to be taken over by rows of tents occupied by people, many of them from abroad, living on the streets as a lifestyle choice. 1/4

The guardian had an opportunity to raise the lack of high quality research into ME, and to showcase the wide-ranging impact this illness has on people - but it didn’t. The research paper outlined undisputed facts about ME which at a minimum the guardian should have included

Including the sentence ‘Although sufferers may feel exhausted after doing things, rest can “perpetuate the illness”’ is dangerous. Not resting enough can have a catastrophic impact on peoples lives. It also reinforces unhelpful/negative stigma attached to the illness.

🚨 Great new book offering plenty of insight and advice to current and future sport and exercise practitioners🚨 personally recommend Chapter 10 which discusses what attributes experts in high performance sport think are key for young practitioners to develop!

That I couldn’t be studying at the @UniversityLeeds because I was blonde … this man, also a Leeds student, genuinely believed a) hair colour affected intelligence b) that he was great at chatting women up

Winning medals isn’t the only reason for girls to play sport 📣 Ignoring any research for or against advantages from hormones - the language used by some is reinforcing negative stereotypes that will effect society for years #TransWomenAreWomen
Chris Tomlinson OLY@LongJumpChris

There will be no point in girls competing in sport if we allow transgenders to compete with women, they won’t stand a chance. Yet spineless individuals choose to say and do nothing. Why aren’t more people standing up for women? #womeninsport #sportmatters

Paid £50 return Lboro to London with @EastMidRailway this weekend and stood for over half of both journeys because it was so overcrowded I couldn’t reach my reserved seat. All the train was there but maybe the management team were in the same brewery
Katrina Navickas 🇱🇹🇺🇦@katrinanavickas

Train announcer on the cross Pennine train: "Sorry there are no seats left but half the train is missing. If you have any queries about this, please ask the management of Northern Rail, who are currently stuck in a brewery, stone cold sober. "

After 3 weeks reporting on the Ocean Viking search and rescue ship, I've hung up my lifejacket. I'm taking a bit of time off now, but here's a recap of my reports. They aren't easy reading, but I urge you to take a look - not enough is known about what's happening in the Med.🧵

Roe-Ja Cat - Women 🇺🇸🙃 ⁣#RoeVsWade ⁣ Disappointing that in 2022, it took so little to strip women of their human rights. Sending love to those affected in the US and beyond by the decision. 🙏🏽❤️⁣ ⁣ Original song: @DojaCat

@chellen_karuna Oh no! Thankfully mine were randomly delivered one day way after they were supposed to. See Tickets customer service were so unhelpful! On the Glastonbury website there is an email address for see tickets which is directly for Glasto so maybe contact them if you haven’t

@pcsensible Yes mine was similar! The tracker showed it went to a 'local' sorting office in Birmingham and was signed for at my Leicestershire address 20 minutes later! Luckily, after over a week of chasing and getting no where, they arrived today 🎉
