"Everyone's overwhelmed. We are literally on our knees."
Dr Lade Smith, president of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, says the government's investment in mental health services is 'not quite enough' to tackle the crisis.

Absolutely delighted that my MP @sarahjolney1 asked @Keir_Starmer at PMQs today for public health campaign for#SuicidePrevention. PM agreed to “work across the house on this tragic issue” and said ministers will meet her to discuss. @wesstreeting

Hope for 2026: a lower suicide rate.
England’s rate has been unchanged since 2018 - no rise despite a pandemic, a recession & huge pressure on NHS.
2026 needs to be the year the rate falls, as it did in 2000s when rates were the lowest on record.
What will that take? 🧵

The task begins tonight. Rates are often highest in January & start of the month carries greatest risk.
It’s not hard to see why - alcohol, family friction, loneliness. All remediable, it should be stressed.
Have a happy, safe & generous New Year. #NYE2026

Extremely grateful to @sarahjolney1 for asking and to @wesstreeting for his positive and encouraging reply for a meeting with Health Minister @SKinnock #suicideprevention

Really excited to be working with the University of Glasgow in awarding a PhD scholarship to research male suicide in Scotland under the supervision of @suicideresearch. We hope this will inform @MenScotland do, as well as inform Scotland’s approach to tackling suicide.
