I am disgusted and not a shred surprised. We have lost our way. Mr. Meunier stuck on an ER stretcher for 4 days with consequent bone and muscle exposed said 'I don't want to be a burden'. He was granted death through medical assistance in dying.

Samuel McAllister Christine McClements Inaccessible images are everywhere without looking. It means people with vision impairments miss out on knowing what is in the photo. It really isn’t hard to include Alt text and Twitter will even prompt you if you go to “edit” on the photo.

Unbelievable. A sign has just been erected at the DUP's Lagan Valley office. It lists the 'RT Hon Sir Jeffrey Donaldson MP' with the party's 2 MLAs under the DUP logo. Donaldson is now an independent & is suspended from the party after being charged with historical sex crimes.

'Hospital bed-blocking' or in other words where sick or recovering people who required a hospital bed when ready for discharge are being failed by a lack of appropriate social care resources to allow them to discharge safely home or to a care setting offering appropriate support.

An injustice system👇

“She also force-fed victims, locked others in a shed or made them stand for hours in dark rooms as punishment for not polishing boots or floors to her liking.”

Yes it shouldn't be necessary for me to spend my free time pointing out inaccessibility resulting in an inequitable twitter experience for blind & visually impaired ppl or ppl with autism, attention deficit etc from our politicians but here we are.

They should just do

I do recognise that this is a pathetic tactic of being shockingly offensive to gain attention from the outrage generated in an increasingly desperate attempt to stay in the public eye, but I do find this tweet to be absolutely despicable.

What we learned from
Education NI evidence session: Not a crisis (despite others saying so). 1000 new school places needed, but schools hesitant to come forward (prob due to staffing & resource issues). Education NI & Department of Health lack coordination, & no End2End review timeline
