If only ministers would see people with learning disabilities as citizens who deserve support for the benefit of all society, not simply as drains on their budgets and as political footballs - my short @thetimes column thetimes.co.uk/article/239558…

Sensible piece by @questingvole. It’s weird the concept of tackling problems at root rather than letting them intensify and explode has become a revolutionary idea in our crumbling state

I’m pretty much as mentally healthy as I’ve ever been these days and look back on that period of acute illness almost as another country which is a relief. But I’ve not really seen much improvement in policy terms on mental health - or it seems greater awareness among people in…
Will be writing more on this later. I do think there has been a diagnosis creep and an unhelpful celebrity mental health culture but besides all of that we still have a very mentally unhealthy society which we are neither trying to treat properly or indeed prevent conditions…
And I was only able to make any headway in recovery because I was able to get private therapy for the PTSD that was ruining my life. I find it astonishing that ministers seem to think the therapy will magically appear or people will just realise they’ve been imagining they are…

It would be so much better for the country if ministers such as @MelJStride devoted their energies to fixing shattered social care, mending the broken mental health system and actually supporting people with learning disabilities instead of scapegoating them

Mel Stride says it is an “open question” if people with learning disabilities should receive cash disability benefits - which sounds horribly like the prelude to a pre-election attack scapegoating the country’s most disempowered community

There are 1.9m people on mental health wait lists while overloaded and underfunded social care turns away huge numbers of desperate citizens. But the government claims it will offer ‘meaningful’ support for people losing disability benefits in crackdown thetimes.co.uk/article/92e185…

These scummy Western banks still operating in Russia gave €800m to the Russian war machine that is slaughtering Ukrainians fighting for freedom and democracy. Their support for Putin - like too many other naive Western firms - is unforgivable

Thank you for this article, sir. Anything that can be done to support those with learning difficulties is a good thing.
If only ministers would see people with learning disabilities as citizens who deserve support for the benefit of all society, not simply as drains on their budgets and as political footballs - my short @thetimes column thetimes.co.uk/article/239558…
@ianbirrell Thought provoking article. I did support assisted dying, but after reading about those disturbing cases in the Netherlands, I'm not so sure. Especially considering a certain political party's tendency to rip up red tape and weaken judicial processes and oversight.
It's the deceit that is so shocking. So many of them said one thing in public and another in private.
Susan R Weiss, Feb 13, 2020: "No credible evidence supporting claims of the laboratory engineering of SARS-CoV-2" tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10… Susan R Weiss, Feb 21, 2020: "frightening to think it may have been engineered"
Incredible.
After @RishiSunak called China an authoritarian state, Baidu changed definition on authoritarianism and re-defined it as a political system which "provides a stable environment for economic development and lays the foundation for transformation to democracy".
Hey @rightmove have you considered adding #wheelchair #accessible to your filters? Would make a massive difference for many people. Thanks
@ianbirrell @AndrewCooper__ I’m getting that @RoryStewartUK moment again when you interviewed him.
Neglect contributed to death of man with Down's syndrome in @BrandonTrust's care. A privilege to represent the family, instructed by Susie Labinjoh & Sion Morgan of @HJAcivillibs. The amazing @TorButlerCole represented the family at PIRHs. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan… @INQUEST_ORG
This is bloody good
On behalf of the Labour Party, I wish everyone a happy St George’s Day. Let us be proud of our national identity, confident on the world stage, and sure of our country’s future.
@ianbirrell @RoseUnwin Here in America I’ve heard too many tragic stories of avoidable deaths. But never have heard of a situation that drew a community of supporters together like this one- and certainly never a story brought to life on stage. It’s amazing.
I believe that a bipartisan commission focused only on the #OriginOfCovid - given subpoena powers and paneled with scientist and non-scientist investigators - would be able to crack the case in 2 years.
I’m really proud to have been part of the Mail on Sunday team that won last night at the #PressAwards for best Tabloid Front Page. But winning this award is very bittersweet. It features the image of Noa Argamani’s kidnap in real time into Gaza by Palestinian terrorists. Noa,…
