To those saying comments like "oh good more money for those who contribute nothing" - check ur facts! 40% of UC claimants are the working poor others are carers, have disabilities or illness, & some who don't have work, want it. A little more compassion & less judgement wouldn't hurt.
Just spotted.... this is a good change for benefits recipients, deductions can be soul-destroying. #budget "Caps deductions made through Universal Credit at 15% of the standard allowance. Before this Budget, it was 25%... approximately 1.2 million households will keep more of their Universal Credit payment each month, with households expected to be better off by an average of over Β£420 a year"

I know I keep going on about this - but it was only when Laura was diagnosed that I found out how many families are devastated by a brain tumour diagnosis & how little progress there's been in the last 20 years. I truly hope nobody you love is ever diagnosed with brain cancer x
#BrainTumours are indiscriminate, they: πŸ’” Kill more children than leukaemia πŸ’” Kill more women under 35 than breast cancer πŸ’” Kill more men under 70 than prostate cancer Help change the future for those affected by all types of brain tumours ➑️ bit.ly/3NxLn5p

With talk of celebrity children's authors in the air again, can I just say one thing. Your non-celeb author, who isn't on supermarket shelves or the One Show, goes into schools & meets readers. Their books are not an item of merch that comes with the price of the meet & greet.

Grateful for this testimony today. It stayed a very hidden story for far far too long. The reckoning is always a painful moment in disaster. Thank you @Kevin_Fong

Towards the end of his testimony, Prof Fong makes the heartfelt case that to understand the Covid impact on the NHS you have to go *beyond* data - "there is more to know than you can count". His testimony was *so important* /END
