Once again @networkrail you’ve failed to deliver. The footpath at Barnes was supposed to be open in April. Then the summer. Then end October! Still waiting and still fed up. @TfL - what do you care? All you do is strike for your needs not that of your customers. @MayorofLondon

Despite Age being a protected characteristic, corporate HR & EDI Diversity heads dismiss - but age discrimination in the workplace is the norm, especially recruitment. We will all be older one day! Work keeps us all young! #returnerships @bravestarts thetimes.com/business-money…

Red red red as it is every day, every week because @TfL and @MayorofLondon can’t pull their finger out and open hammersmith bridge! Take the pretty sides off, but a fit for purpose bridge and put the pretty sides back. Ugh 🤬🤬🤬🤬 Third world roads

Wonderful to listen to a head teacher who puts kids and social mobility ahead of virtue signalling. Thank you @Miss_Snuffy for having the courage to stand up to those calling for your resignation.

For any academics in the UK, if you believe in the value of free speech and want to protect yourself from being cancelled or shut down, this is an open letter signed by hundreds of academic across the UK. Add your voice 💪 afaf.org.uk/sign-this-open…

Freedom of speech is the bedrock of democracy. If the truth is suppressed, it is impossible to make an informed voting decision. The degree to which freedom of speech is being undermined around the world is extremely alarming.

The decision to axe the Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Act is a disaster. Freedom of speech is the most important human right of all because without it we cannot raise the alarm about any of our other rights being eroded. freespeechunion.org/government-has…

Made it to the top 30 most influential HR THINKERS (not **nkers). A truly remarkable achievement given i often feel the neurons aren’t during! Still, at least I got to drink a margarita or two. Thank you @hrmagazine for the recognition.

Thank you @MorrisseyHelena for featuring @Brave_Starts in your article. As a non profit we can’t afford PR. Non profits don’t get charity grants or discounts, nor do we qualify for investment. This sort of coverage is amazing and we deserve it as we’re good at what we do.

Another man who doesn't understand - or won't understand - that what he's saying is: Why won't women just budge up and shut up, and let any man who want who insists he's a woman come into every space, activity, sport and so on that is supposedly only for women? BIG MEANIES

Please don’t shut or or be silenced by the virtue signalling @davidtennantcom (shame on you). Kemi - your voice on gender ideology has been the welcome breath of common sense people need.

Brilliant article on the tyranny of the minority and the need for politicians to stand up for what’s right and not sniff out the latest fad to follow. @UKLabour don’t reassure me they can stand up for women. I can’t vote for them.

I agree. Whenever I hear anyone attempt to accuse JK Rowling of being a bigot, transphobe or any other slur, I ask them calmly to show me evidence. Exasperated? Yes. Fed up? Sure but she carries herself with a grace and dignity anyone (of any gender) should aspire towards.
