I am often told I have more holidays than Judith Chalmers. Her reports were for work. They inspired people with little means to travel the world. I'll never get a tan, with my blue Scots' skin. Rest in sun. X

I love my union the #NUJ during #heartunionsweek because it's allowed me to be part of a team. A family. Not political, because we're a trade union for everyone of every background, but we fight for democracy. We fight for equality and we do it because we hold truth to power. ❤️
The Curberland Road flats in the Gorbals are no more. Quite the demolition job! Still, a nicer view now for my old neighbours!

1 November at the Auschwitz Memorial.
Candles by the Wall of Death in the yard of Block 11 of the former Auschwitz I camp. SS men carried out most of the shooting executions there. Thousands of people were killed there.
The memory of the tragic past must become a universal warning that shows where hatred, antisemitism, and contempt for a fellow human being can lead people. We must look at this history to reflect on our moral responsibility to our world.
Light your virtual candles below.
Four years ago, when my mum was in a hospice, Janey kindly sent a private video message to my mum, a fellow Carlton lass, to bring some cheer. It was COVID, so just me and mum enjoying Janey's humanity and humour. Mum's smile priceless. Small acts make us great. Thanks Janey xx – at Glasgow, Scotland

If UK news shows are going to give Boris Johnson a platform to spout his absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it
We cannot allow those once in power to rewrite history.

VP: I was a courtroom prosecutor. In those roles I took on perpetrators of all kinds. Predators who abused women. Fraudsters who ripped off consumers. Cheaters who broke the rules for their own gain. So hear me when I say I know Donald Trump's type.

We know the England team losing the #EURO2024 is the worst outcome for some, for others however it's the reality of waiting for their partner to come home.
Football doesn't cause #DomesticAbuse, abusers do.
