I’m seeing tweets from nurses being denied access to drinks at work including a matron binning staff water bottles. I wonder about the legality of this. Health & Safety at Work act? Human Rights Act? Any solicitors out there able to advise? (@BarristerSecret, @theRCN)

One year ago, I protested outside Downing Street. I was six months’ pregnant, and working as a doctor on the frontline. 👩‍⚕️ Within hours, I knew my life would never be the same. THREAD:

TDoR is always so heavy. Transphobia kills. After a challenging meeting today I reached out and found solidarity with a stranger, now friend. Our community bears such grief with unbelievable dignity and grace. I feel endlessly honoured to be part of it. 🕯

*Reported* #homophobic #bullying has gone up 55% in the last 5 years, in London alone. We must do better. #HammerItOut #AntiBullyingWeek #Antibullyingweek2020 #antibullying #medtwitter @VirtualNHSPride @RainbowNHSBadge #medtwitter
Yesterday was the anniversary of #Section28 being repealed. Today, during #AntiBullyingWeek, we learn the Government has stopped funding projects to tackle anti-LGBT bullying in England's schools. Without funding LGBT kids will be left to suffer in silence bbc.co.uk/news/education-549…

#LockdownEve... I’m definitely finding it harder - generally more tired, lower resilience. I thought this might be helpful for some:

In the short time that @TashMashhh has worked in my team they have made a huge impact and contribution to our work. I’m proud and grateful to have them as a colleague. We stand with you @TashMashhh and all our trans and non-binary colleagues. Please read 👇
According to my twitter mentions because I use they/them pronouns I am: a waste of space, mentally ill, belong to a cult, an attention seeking narcissist, don’t deserve healthcare, should not be resuscitated, will always be a boy, will always be a girl.

It’s International Pronouns Day today Simple actions, like putting pronouns in your Twitter profile, email signature or on your name badge, can make a big difference #PronounsDayNHS

Dressing like a stick of rock to talk about #PronounsDay! @LTHTLGBT Normalising conversations about pronouns makes it easier for others to speak up. It helps to acknowledge and include people and celebrate diversity. (and because making assumptions can be incredibly damaging!)

It’s International Pronouns Day. We’re encouraging everyone to use pronouns and ask about pronouns as a simple way to show you’re inclusive of trans and non-binary people #PronounsDay #hellomynameis #LGBTHealth

This #PronounsDay, our LGBT Staff Network’s trans and non-binary lead, @EddyLaurie1, shares the significance of pronouns and why it’s so important they’re visible in the NHS — both for our patients and our colleagues. 🏳️‍⚧️ instagram.com/p/CGmQCNZgXO6/…
