In case you need to hear this today: please be kind to yourself. This job is relentless and, for all the moments of joy, it can be seriously tough. You are a person before you’re a teacher and you deserve to be both happy and healthy.

Jeez. Even I’m struggling to keep up. Hold on to your seats as @RishiSunak sneaks out another glossy video on a Saturday. I’ve added some actual FACTS to this latest pile of dung. Will this lot not allow me a single day off

What's more "extreme": Believing that children should have enough food to eat? Or refusing to tax the super-rich while 4.2 million kids live in poverty?

The Prime Minister blaming Junior doctors for hospital waiting lists is one of the most despicable things he’s said & for the record he’s offered them a crappy real terms pay cut If like me you stand with the junior doctors who sacrificed so much to keep us safe RT this widely

If just one person from this post reaches out it will bring some comfort to what is so heartbreaking. 💔 Thank you so much for all the kind words it means the world 🌍 to my family and my mum is so grateful to each and everyone of you. I’ve decided I’m going to cycle a 100 miles over the summer in memory of my brother Wayne. I want to help raise awareness of mental health and support wonderful charities like @MindCharity My brother was a big @ManUtd supporter. He loved watching and visiting Old Trafford. In his honour, my ride will finish at the stadium. I love you brother. rethinkmentalillness.enthuse…

I can’t believe I’m writing this. Life is so fragile and sometimes people can’t go on. My brother couldn’t carry on yesterday and left this world. I’m beyond heartbroken 💔 Please if you feel you need help talk and reach out to someone. mensmindsmatter.org/

We live in a grotesquely unequal society that concentrates wealth, status & power in the hands of a few. Real patriotism is about building a society that cares for each other and cares for all.
