The Taliban has just banned Afghan women from attending nursing school. Imagine: you cannot pursue any education, even healthcare, because of the sole reason that you are a woman. We are witnessing the erasure of women in real-time. It is beyond horror.

This is breaking my heart tonight. Despite every international forum and institution set up to protect human rights, women’s remain a secondary priority. Where’s the ICC on Taliban leadership? Where is the UN? Where are the signatories to the ECHR? Where is ANYBODY?

How can we support and facilitate this women’s revolution? Words are not enough and gender issues need to move up the agenda. The silencing of an entire nation of women is a failure of the worlds. #UNWomen

This is a very big deal for women’s health. We should be shouting it from the rooftops tops, leading with it across all media. Imagine, generations of young women for whom this cancer is a thing of the past.

This Queen Elizabeth memorial. I get that some people want it. I don’t and I resent my taxes going to pay for it. Those who do want it can pay by a subscription scheme. I pay my taxes for the NHS, schools and public services not for a statue costing an eye watering £46 million.

Sky News Defending inequality by labeling it a 'burden' on taxpayers undermines the trust and dignity of those affected. Justice for women impacted by these changes shouldn't be up for debate

Keir Starmer needs to explain why in July 2022 he said the plight of WASPI women was a “real injustice” and today says there will be no compensation. See attached

While in Opposition, Reeves and many other Labour MPs and Ministers were photographed pledging support for #Waspi women. This betrayal by Labour must rank as one of the most flagrant in political history, theguardian.com/money/2024/dec…

Millions of 1950s women worked and paid taxes for half a century. Then they retired and found out they were a burden on the taxpayer.

The UK is spending £369m refurbishing Buckingham Palace for King Charles, who has £22bn and gets £500m more a year. He can pay for his own renovations, £369m is more than England spends on building Social Housing in an entire year for the whole country.

Fox hunting is the deliberate infliction of severe pain & suffering on an animal. Torturing the fox to a excruciatingly painful death of being eaten alive & ripped apart by dogs. People get prison sentences for animal cruelty - why do hunts get away with it? Money & class.

Jess Phillips has literally spent years defending women and girls against violence and sexual violence. Elon Musk’s abuse of her is a wicked libel.

People have had enough of Elon Musk interfering with our country’s democracy when he clearly knows nothing about Britain. It’s time to summon the US ambassador to ask why an incoming US official is suggesting the UK government should be overthrown.
