By 2025, 99% of NHS Talking Therapies will include employment advisers. This in a time where there are not enough therapists remember. So money that could go into treatment is going into the neoliberal fantasy work is cure INSTEAD. #Getbritainworking

One of the saved ‘kinder’ in this audience is my great uncle Kurt. Goosebumps and overwhelming gratitude every time I see this #kindertransport
Nicholas Winton helped 669 Jewish children escape the Nazis. His efforts went unrecognized for 50 years. Then in 1988, while sitting as a member of a TV audience, he suddenly found himself surrounded by the kids he’d rescued, now adults. I like to remember this every Jan 27th.

Today is pansexual visibility day. 👋 I define as pan. To me it means that who I love is more influenced by the person’s personality and vibe rather than their gender. A new(ish) term for an old idea, and it can mean different things to others. Love is love. 🌈 #LGBTQ
