It’s sickening, worrying and disturbing to know that such harmful,disgraceful and dangerous language has been used against #DianaAbbott. It puts women of colour in danger and highlights the ingrained racism and misogynistic attitudes that exist in society bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-6…

I’ve been struggling these past few weeks. My mum died in October and the reality is starting to hit. Luckily I work with colleagues and for a business where I can talk about how I feel. It’s encouraged. #TimeToTalk @coopuk

In 2023, I thought a lot about grief. "I was adamant she should be cremated in the trainers I’d bought her – but they were missing. I learnt later that Mum and her bestie, Rita, had covertly taken a bus to Boye’s in Kirkby and exchanged them for new bras." ithoughtaboutthatalot.com/20…
