We now know the name of this iconic Iranian woman: Ahoo Daryaei, meaning Deer of the Sea.

I don’t speak of this often but listening to Nigel Farage in tonight’s debate I must. My dad was an immigrant. From the moment he arrived in this country he worked hard every day in labouring jobs. My most vivid recollection is of his tired & weary eyes and oil stained overalls when he came home after a 12 hour factory shift. Even then he was able to raise a smile for us. He was kind & gentle & loved my mum with passion. He raised a family of 4 & instilled in each of us a fierce sense of right & wrong & love of country. His proudest day was when he became a British citizen. I recall him with love & affection & pride & carry the lessons he taught me in my heart every day. If it were not for my dad I would not be a lawyer today & in his memory I work hard everyday to make a difference for as many as I can. Immigration is a beautiful thing & don’t let charlatans like Farage tell you otherwise ❤️

#LewisCapaldi is a legend.
Watching #LewisCapaldi at #Glastonbury, I see a man brave enough to face the crowd, To reveal his humanity to the world. I see vulnerability. I see strength. And the crowd saw it too. That's why they sang. Thank you Lewis for being you.

We made a little weekend song 🎶 about the #lockdownfiles. We'd like to dedicate it to @IsabelOakeshott & @MattHancock. Sorry for chorus skips but didn't quite get it down to 2m20s & couldn't be arsed to re-record it. Annoying to only have partial material, isn't it?! 🤔

Valid point. I recall my son struggling as the words were ‘moving.’ He was sadly criticised at school for his reading+writing. Diagnosed as dyslexic- Now happy & creative. Wants to work in the movies #dyslexicstrenghs
Today @WorldBookDayUK aims to change lives through the love of books, but for those with dyslexia, reading can be daunting. The campaign offers a range of free audiobooks to ensure every child can enjoy storytelling. Visit bit.ly/3GZvHlz for a library of free audiobooks.

Fab few days delivering #training on #CBT with #olderpeople. Its a tragedy that their access rates to #talkingtherapies are still below #nhs targets, particularly as they do so well when they do engage. And a special thanks to my dogministrator Maggie #mentalhealth #iapt #AgeUk

So well put. We still don’t talk about grief as we should. Particularly when the grieving process has been so abnormal for so many. #grief #grieving #covid #postpandemic #MentalHealthMatters #compassion
