I’ve written this for the The Telegraph, knowing that my elderly parents will read it. I’m so frustrated at the BBC and the production company.

ā€œWhen you’re raped there is shame, and it’s not for us to have shame, it’s for them. It’s true that I hear lots of women, and men, who say you’re very brave. I say it’s not bravery, it’s will and determination to change societyā€ - GisĆØle. What an incredible woman.

You may know I have issues with Toby Young. In fact, I was accused of wanting to ā€˜drive him from office’ when he briefly had a governmental role previously. How do I plead? Guilty & proud! Here’s why ableist, sexist, EUGENICIST Young should be nowhere NEAR power now!🧵 1/

To all the Motability moaners, this little fact from Transport for All that only 2% of train stations in the UK are step free to the train goes some way to explain Motability. Driving or being driven is the only choice for too many disabled people.

Offering a potential victim something that they need or want is a key tactic of county lines recruiters. The relationship is one of exchange and exploitation - we’ll give you X, if you do Y. Money, drugs, designer clothes … now lip fillers and Botox. independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/…

Dr Rachel Clarke (Palliative care doctor): If we don't address the state of palliative care, some people will "choose" to end their life through assisted suicide because we as a society don't care enough to give them the care that might make life worth living. (Dr Rachel Clarke)

This column has been the second most read on the whole Guardian site today and it’s all credit to Rosy who literally used her last voice to speak out about this country’s care crisis. Please do continue to read and share. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Hi V&A please STOP locking the accessible toilet adjacent to the members' room. I found it locked *again* on Friday, though it was in perfect working order. This is discriminatory, & it's very annoying & upsetting to have to seek staff and 'ask permission' to use the toilet.

I apologised to the members of the Assisted Dying Bill committee tonight as I had to leave early. I didn’t want to but had to because my hearing aids need to recharge after 15 hours use and without them I cannot hear or take part in the committee. Hearing isn’t a choice for me.
