How in 2024 is someone still dying from mistreatment in an NHS hospital? Why are we still treating everything as psychological if it affects women? Please GMC @rcphysicians Royal College of Psychiatrists listen to #pwME, read the research, have compassion on people with #SevereME. #BringMillieHome

Job opp with a great research team and interesting project !

#BringMillieHome 1/9 🧵 There has been much recent media coverage/discussion about the case of Millie McAinsh. Millie is a young woman who has been diagnosed with #SevereME. She was admitted to the Royal Lancaster Infirmary some time ago as she was unable to ingest/digest food.

Really helpful thread from David Abbott capturing the co-produced materials being launched today exploring how young disabled people negotiate their gender and sexual identities with PAs.

Disability Studies peeps, we (Sociology at Leeds) are recruiting a Lecturer in DS (T&R Grade 8) looking especially for a global/transnational focus, global south/east, indigeneity, decolonisation or transnational/comparative research. Deadline 17 May bit.ly/DSLectureship

This is really important for the #northeastmayoralelection. There is no risk in voting for Jamie Driscoll (@MayorJD) and splitting the left vote. If you want an independent left wing mayor here, we can have one: Reform and the Tories are miles off. Vote Jamie Driscoll!
