Punching #manchesterpolice officers is unacceptable.
Kicking and stamping on someone's head is unacceptable.
Both can be wrong.

NHS privatised.
60% of NHS cataract operations outsourced to private providers.
Private clinics received £700m for cataracts from 2018-19 to 2022-23.
30%-40% of money vanishes in profits. Public purse fleeced.
Say no to privatisation of the NHS.

This #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek share this post and spread the word 👇🏼
Regardless of the week, your mental health matters and YOU matter. You don’t have to face it alone.
Huge shout out to worrywellbeing for this gorgeous illustration 🩵
ALT This mental health awareness week, here are some reminders it's ok to advocate for yourself if you're not being listened to, take a mental health day, talk to friends and family about mental health, tell employers and teachers what support you need

Research by @TeessideUni @TEWV & our @EquallyWellUK campaign found that 50% of people with severe mental illness in the north of England were unable to afford food.
@Andy__Bell__ explores the study which lays bare this stark injustice 👇 centreformentalhealth.org.uk… #FoodPoverty

Dear 🇬🇧,
Wanna hear a joke? The @Conservatives have just called themselves “The Party of the NHS”. 😂 They are, in fact, the greatest threat to the NHS in its 75 year history. So if you value the health of your family, please, don’t vote for them ever again.

You’ve stayed up last night reading all the latest rehab research…
You’ve found that when it comes to pain:
❌Modalities don’t work
❌Manual Therapy doesn’t work
❌Exercise doesn’t work
❌Pain-sci education doesn’t work
You greet your first patient of the day…
“I’m in pain”

Everyone has a past. You are not your past. Or your survival mode choices. Your future self is one choice away. Keep moving forward. Keep telling the truth. Keep forgiving yourself. Keep making choices grounded in your values.
The past is meaningless.

Seeing @markrusselluk present the headlines of this report was an impossibly depressing, distressing hour
It is a must-read, we MUST make things change for our children

MPs just voted on a motion to remove private schools' £1,700,000,000 tax break.
That could pay for free school meals for *all* primary school pupils almost twice over.
But Tory MPs voted it down, choosing to protect elite private schools, not improve opportunities for all kids.

Harrowing words from a senior emergency medicine doctor showing the despair at not being able to provide the level of care every doctor hopes to for their patients. Every doctor, nurse & HCW can empathise with this right now.
