Went down to London on Wednesday (45 minute delay on train) for a work Away Day yesterday (which was great, I did a presentation to the company, well received), and traveled back last night (12 minute delay). This morning my brain is total mush. So very tired.

The government has FROZEN ALL DECISIONS for Syrians applying for asylum or settlement for nearly 6 months😱😱😱 Roughly 7,000 people left in limbo & denied the right to work - this is completely INSANE.

We’ve gone from online speculation that it must have been a terrorist attack to newspapers downplaying the incident because it was done by a middle-aged white suburban straight man. Curious 🤔

To mark the 1st day of my 4th year without Alice I have an announcement: I’ve joined up with a determined group of women working to change the narrative around trans people. Women standing in solidarity with our trans siblings. Our first step is to ask cis women to read and sign our open letter ⬇️

Sure Start was basically cost neutral (-£300m) and generated huge individual and social benefits. Are we sure there's no way of accounting for these preventative impacts in public accounting?

14,000 babies will die in Gaza in the next 48 hours if Israel continues to prevent baby food aid from reaching Palestinians. There is no question, no nuance, no possible justification. We must do everything we possibly can to stop Israel from committing such atrocities #r4today
