A lovely touch from the council - the advertising boards across the city today hold the message “Thank you Pat” with Zippy Santa @patkarney
And both you and I don't wish for any other parent to be in our situation. It really sucks! Sending you much love.

Just had a really sophisticated scam call from “Gloucestershire Police”.
Correct number. British female voice. Text message to confirm. Really polished script.
“We’ve arrested someone who was using your identity to commit financial fraud. Your passport and drivers license was used….”
Invites me to come to the police station nearest to me to view the evidence.
… then… Wants to confirm the crypto accounts that are genuine … didn’t feel right… she puts me through to her Sargent… British accent… he starts asking for info about my “genuine accounts” … I start asking questions and *click*
Did some searching and it seems to be a scam that’s doing the rounds. AI voice alteration, cloned phone numbers etc. really sophisticated.
Be careful out there.
RIP Sir. Martyn once interviewed you about the Christmas Markets and enjoyed speaking with you about it. He would have been upset about your passing. So glad they are taking you past the markets.
Extremists' Targeting and Recruitment of Minors in Online Gaming Spaces - goo.gl/alerts/bQGQin Another interesting article about online recruitment of young people.
Understanding radicalisation requires looking at the full picture - goo.gl/alerts/SR7isR This is an interesting article about radicalisation of young people in Australia but is also relevant in the UK and elsewhere. It is a global problem.
He made a rather brilliant witch in wizard costume. That cheesy grin!! As parents it is totally understandable that we ask if we should have noticed something or could have done something. It is only natural. It is all so hard. Sending you much love. 🌷💕
Alexander picked his Halloween costume-he wanted to be a "witch" (it was technically a wizard costume!). He had such fun carving a pumpkin at the party. This time of year, I replay every second of the lead up. What did I miss? Could I have somehow stopped you dying? 💔 #childloss

For those mocking the PM for going on Gogglebox:
It's for Stand Up to Cancer.
For those mocking his tattoo:
It's the Manchester Bee, done after the Manchester Arena Attack, where 22 died and 100's more were injured.
I cannot even imagine what you all went through as a family and how your lives have changed forever that day. Losing a child under such tragic circumstances is so tough and completely changes the trajectory of life as it was. Sending you much love. 💕
Eight years ago.
Waiting in A&E
Just moments later, our lives changed forever.
In my worst nightmares I could never have imagined what was in store for us.
It really can happen to anyone

To be honest I think it is simply because she has not understood how this legislation works and is making ill informed assumptions. That is why I would like to meet her.
I seriously can't believe ive just read this @FigenMurray! DISLIKE?!?! It'll be interesting to know why if she won't agree to meet you! Keep us posted. Beggars belief!
Have not got the heart and time to explore other platforms and decided I will stay on but will only do very occasional tweets.

Our Executive Director for Martyn's Law, Laura Gibb, featured on the panel: 'Martyn's Law: Dispelling the Myths', chaired by @FigenMurray.
The panel addressed misinformation surrounding the Act, and Laura reiterated our role as a supportive, proportionate and robust regulator.
Please go in the ProtectUK website and look at what Martyn's Law actually is and how it works. Lots of misinformation by Katie Lam.
I would suggest you go on the ProtectUK website and check out the two minute animations to explain a lot around the legislation. You have misunderstood as you probably only read what Katie Lam wrote. She also does not understand it.
I am inviting @Katie_Lam_MP to have a meeting to discuss her dislike of this legislation and explain to her why it is so important. I hope she will agree to meet.
To hate Martyn's Law demonstrates a profound misunderstanding of what the legislation is and how it improves safety for those attending venues and events - @FigenMurray responds to @Katie_Lam_MP comments in the @Independent
