1950s cartoon in Punch book. Didn’t get message then, but setting up psychotherapy practice in 2001, recalled it. Sister found book, I had cartoon enlarged, framed & put in reception. Life is similar now, but business man would have computer on desk, train & home.#worklifebalance

One sobering comment from an LA observer struck home. It could be said of many grim situations around the world. "They are in shock. Their future has gone. Their past has been destroyed." The past can never be changed and there will be a future, just a different one.😢
Male violence against women is an endemic problem in NI and we need action, not promises from Stormont. I've signed this petition to stand up against men's violence towards women - will you sign too? my.actnowni.org/petitions/st… via @actnowni

A megalomaniac who is probably addicted to drugs & is sleeping very little turns his 211 million followers into a hate campaign against one of the most outstanding MPs when it comes to protecting women in Parliament. Yet many MPs & parts of media happy to support the Musk hate campaign. What a shameful moment in British public life. We have learned nothing from death of Jo Cox or David Amess @jessphillips @Keir_Starmer
Have opened a large tub full of research and background material I used for my books. Inspired to write again. Blog is waiting…#chasingrainbows #wisewords

The vitriolic abuse directed at @jessphillips over the past few days is unwarranted and unacceptable.
It is an example of the culture of abuse and intimidation that has become commonplace in our political discourse, disproportionately impacting women and people of colour.

My thoughts last night too. #DomesticAbuse

Not just sad for the nation for some it can be dangerous. Call if you need help.
There will be women tonight dreading their partner coming home. Football does not cause domestic abuse, but it can become more frequent or severe after big games, with reporting increasing by 38% when England lose.
Go to womensaid.org.uk. In an emergency, always call 999.

Thank you @york_features @mrnickharvey @BBCRadio4 @bbcpaddy @SIGBI1 @nymtc1 @MusicforDemUK In 1985 Bob Geldolf provided a life changing moment for me on TV, Paul Harvey did the same on radio in 2020.
