Labour & Greens are the biggest parties at @LancasterCC tonight. But 7 parties overall. Celebrations & drinks underway but also thoughts on what comes next? Another shared administration? Cross-party talks?. Lancaster & Morecambe politics is fascinating. To be continued.

We live in a grotesquely unequal society that concentrates wealth, status & power in the hands of a few.

Real patriotism is about building a society that cares for each other and cares for all.

Based on personal experiences, I've got idea for a tool that could potentially help reduce maternal and infant mortality for Black and Brown families. Would appreciate some input from someone in the midwifery space - anyone interested to chat?

ITV reports “polling station tellers in Oxfordshire say "large numbers" of voters were being turned away, reporting that between 10-25% were unable to vote.” There was almost no voter fraud in the UK. There is now, and it is officially sanctioned. https://www.itv.com/news/2023-05-04/widespread-reports-of-people-without-id-being-denied-vote
I live in a city but guess what I’m in bed and all I can hear tonight is owls hooting - and that sound - well it’s magnificent.
Go @Laura__Clancy 😍

Just happened upon my Lancaster University colleague and former PhD student Laura Clancy being filmed by German TV in Mayfair.

Grateful for this statement from the Working Families Party. I’m not sure what we have seen from Adams & Hochul is cowardice, however. Rather, they are exercising “stigma power,” as @profimogentyler calls it. https://twitter.com/nywfp/status/1654162132601061378

“Mayor Adams and Governor Hochul have refused to call Jordan Neely's murder what it is: a modern-day public lynching.”
