Here's Why Poor People's Bad Decisions Make Perfect Sense

Here's Why Poor People's Bad Decisions Make Perfect Sense

We know that the very act of being poor guarantees that we will never not be poor. It doesn't give us much reason to improve ourselves.

I’m looking for people who have been diagnosed with a #PersonalityDisorder to take part in my PhD research at an early stage to help me to understand the ways they have been managed by mental health services in combination with the police. If this has been you, please DM me.

The Johnson government’s NHS Bill is a Privatisation Bill. We’ve all seen in the pandemic how bringing in private firms has wasted vast sums, and absolutely failed us as patients and as a country. What on earth are Johnson and co thinking?
