Heartbreaking story by Ruth Clegg about the death of Will Melbourne and his parents and sister all let down by lack of mental health services and lack of support for autistic yp people and their families #MentalHealthSupport bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…

School know giving my son detentions/isolation just leads him to refuse to go to school. Last week he was in 3 days and his average for the weeks before was 1 day so how is this meant to encourage him. 🤦‍♂️ Not Fine in School Naomi Fisher

Such lovely tributes to #stevewright. it reminds me of how important BBC Radio 1 BBC Radio 2 and BBC Radio 4 have been to me in my life (chris moyles, sara Cox, zoe ball and Terry wogan morning shows) and why the #bbc are so important to broadcasting.

This is terrible news........

the one thing that got me through a stressful 2 weeks is Lily Allen and Miquita Oliver podcast #MissMe? on BBC Sounds lol funny and just reminds me of great chats with my besties and my love of a good voice note! 🤣 Listen Biiitch!

“Black women don’t get to make light of their gaffe-making, impulsive remarks or off-colour comments. They don’t get to have bad days. Anything short of exemplary personal behaviour would result in public retribution & humiliation.” And here we are. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

#saveourlibraries both Elif Shafak and David Olusoga spoke about how essential libraries were to them. Same for me both as a child, teen and an adult/parent. #Salisburylibrary is brilliant and I hope it is never at risk of being shut down or reduced in size Wiltshire Libraries

COVID lockdown gave us an opportunity to realise we don't want to go to work/school in the same way we were. We have seen more people go on strike, more people wanting a better work/life balance and more parents home educating. School system must adapt bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

I have always used my local library, as a child/ teen, to study, during work breaks, as a parent needing somewhere warm to go with my toddler. ‘If there’s nowhere else to go, this is where they come’: how Britain’s libraries provide much more than books theguardian.com/news/article/2…

I really hope they take strong swift action on this. Will sadly be too late for my son who has been failed by the current system. English schools to phase out ‘cruel’ behaviour rules as Labour plans major education changes theguardian.com/education/arti…

Why do people buy the daily mail. How can they not see whats happening here, why do they believe it, and how can the media get away with it. Inciting racist and hatred.

The political and media class is complicit in this racist, Islamophobic violence. They stoke division because they don’t want us to remember this truth: the enemy of the working class travels by private jet, not migrant dinghy. Me for the The Guardian: theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

There can be no excuses. The UK riots were violent racism fomented by populism | David Olusoga theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Musk was always going to kick back against the UK to try and destabilise us. It must really annoy him that we voted in the Labour Party with a large majority.
