Bearing witness as Paediatricians #ichgconference2025 #globalchildhealth
Brilliant to hear about the new movement for humanitarian paediatrics which acknowledges the systems of colonialism that is prevalent in international health work endeavours #globalchildhealth #childreninconflict #ichgconference2026
Amazing to hear the successes of GINA in Occupied Palestinian Territories for breastfeeding. The power of collaboration!! “"Before GINA, I helped collect donations for formula.
Now I teach other mothers to trust their milk." #ichgconference2025 #globalchildhealth
Raab- “Tolley concluded that I had not once, in four and a half years, sworn or shouted at anyone, let alone thrown anything or otherwise physically intimidated anyone, nor intentionally sought to belittle anyone.” Get this man a medal!
What an apology 😂

Tory politicians living it up in designer clothes at the Savoy whilst people in Britain die from hypothermia in their homes and can’t even source vegetables let alone afford the gas to cook them. There are no words for the rage I feel when I see this. I despise the scumbags.
“The Home Office says almost nine in 10 unaccompanied children in Home Office-approved hotels are Albanian males who claim to be 16 to 17 years old.” WHAT IS THEIR POINT? THIS IS RACIST RHETORIC. (Quote bbc.co.uk/news/uk-64407850

The 1970 Equal Pay Act.
Higher wages.
A shorter working day.
Strikes have secured victories for us all. Today, a worker's fundamental right to withdraw their labour is under threat from arcane Tory legislation.

Some people are more angry with nurses for going on strike than they are with Michelle Mone for selling nurses defective PPE

“The ecological destruction Liz Truss plans to unleash is not collateral damage. It’s a sign she is following her ideology to the letter - fundamental to neoliberalism is belief that everything on Earth can & should be turned into something else” Spot on👇 theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Slashing the benefits of the poor to reassure investors panicking about unfunded tax cuts for the rich has to be the most unapologetically evil domestic policy inflicted by a British government for generations

Millions of people are anxious about their bills, pensions & mortgages. This morning, their concerns were met with denial and disdain from a Prime Minister intent on economic self-destruction.
The Tories’ reckless budget must be reversed.
Recall Parliament now.
