Black women on Depo Provera for more than a year, please be aware of the risk of cancer and brain tumours! This UK lawsuit is happening in tandem with a US lawsuit and many Black women use this contraceptive. Tell a Black woman!
A group of women who took a contraceptive injection called Depo-Provera are suing the pharmaceutical giant Pfizer after suffering serious health issues. Sky's @ConnorGillies reports ⬇️

We've reached the point in the UK where working full time doesn't actually mean anything anymore. It used to mean stability. It used to mean you could afford a home, eat properly, maybe go away once a year and not panic if your car made a weird noise. Now it just means nothing. You wake up early, work all day, come home tired, and still somehow sit there wondering how you're going afford everything. Rent is ridiculous. Bills are constant. Food prices change depending on the mood of the supermarket. And wages? Basically frozen in time. You're not lazy. You're not bad with money. You're just trying to survive in a system where everything goes up except what you get paid.
