If I can't ensure that everyone gets paid fairly, I simply won't make the clothes. If you think that pricepoint is too high for everyone, you are wrong. It's priced similar to many high st stores. Folks might not want to pay it, but that's not the same as being unable to.

Why is the 'stay-at-home girlfriend' trend dividing people on TikTok? We speak to digi culture commentator Hannah VDP and Alex Holder author of Open Up: Why Talking About Money Will Change Your Life

I was on BBC Woman's Hour talking about the trend. We discussed how female autonomy comes in many forms, how culture often values women in relation to the men they date. And importantly how the gender pay gap rose in the UK last year. bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…

I understand that many people wish to mourn, but the mass cancellation of events means a sudden loss of income for many people who are low paid and in insecure work, during a massive social crisis which has not gone away.

As a minimum, there has to be a compensation scheme.

More importantly, — a 24-year-old Black man and expecting father, who was shot and killed by the Met Police earlier this week. He was unarmed.

His family released a statement yesterday.

Today, when I was walking with my 18 yr old son we talked about the concept that, ‘one day I carried him for the last time’. That idea you put a young child down & never pick them up again. We decided that was unacceptable so I gave him a piggy back for 20 yds.

Dear The Telegraph - just stop this hate. I am not on anywhere near £142k. But given all my training and the intensity of my workload I could command it as a GP in the private sectors or overseas. I choose to work in the NHS, SEEING pts through the whole pandemic. Perhaps I’m a mug.

There's a form of class violence that wants to ridicule folk for mispronouncing words. Growing up, I'd often read a word for the first time & have no idea how it was meant to sound. There's no shame in mispronouncing a word. It just means you met it first on your own & on a page.

I think a fun piece of library trivia is that most libraries don't have enough space for all the books, movies, magazines, etc. that they own. We depend on a portion of it being in your homes at any given time. So, in a way, we are all the library. :D

5 years ago 72 people died because they were trapped in a government mandated death trap. 5 years later and we can’t forget their names. We must continue to fight for justice for them and their families. 💚💚✊🏾

Excuse me while I cry for all the parents, including lead researcher Dr Carmel Harrington, who lived with guilt. And cry happy tears for parents in the future who will have access to screening and prevention. 😭
