Wrong side of mature! Former public servant with a keen interest in social justice, health, social care, my dogs and all things Leicester City football club!
Anyone else NOT watching this new series of Masterchef?

Much as I feel for the contestants, airing this show is a flawed decision for me, given the findings against the presenters.

I prosecute and defend the most serious sexual offences in our courts.

The overwhelming majority of offenders are British-born. Overwhelmingly the victim is someone known to them, either a partner or relative.

Anybody purporting to care about protecting women might start there.

Disappointing game at the KP #LEIFUL
Another opportunity gone but there are still 16 games with points to play for.
Atmosphere is going downhill, I don’t like the booing of our own players and the shouts of sack the board and personal insults towards Ruskin.
It is a game! Win or lose, IT IS A GAME 🥴

Well I think Leicester City can take some positives from
#LEIMAN
Their play was on the front foot and they looked a real threat every time they went forward. We just need to stick it in the back of the net now! 😄

Merry Christmas everyone!

I wanted to highlight the thousands of people working today, in the emergency services and other places and those who don’t have a home or people around them.

Not all are fortunate 🙏💜

I don’t think I’ve been more disappointed at a football match than today. Not because Leicester were awful or because we gifted Wolves 3 goals but because our own fans booed everytime Ward or JJ touched the ball after the 2nd goal.
Come on, they need building up not shooting down.😡😡

Earache? Your pharmacist can now provide treatment or some prescription medicine, if needed, for seven common conditions, without you seeing a GP.

Think pharmacy first.

What an amazing end to the #LEIBRI game. 2-0 down with 10 minutes to go and the old saying #foxesneverquit came into play. 2-2 by final whistle 😀 💙⚽️💙

Talking about NHS dentistry, our Chief Executive calls on the Government to consider allowing people to register as a permanent patient, as they do with an NHS GP. This will help people access appointments and ensure they can get the dental care they need. www.theguardian.com/society/2024...

So Steve Cooper goes 👋. There won’t be many fans who miss him, decent bloke tho he may be, performances on the pitch have been muddled, lacking intensity and seemingly without clear purpose. We need clarity and direction #lcfc #premierleague

Hello! I’m not sure how many people who care about the NHS are here yet- but the non-profit campaign org I run (EveryDoctor) is running a massive campaign involving 99 MPs so far, and I need to connect with as many lovely folk as possible.

If you follow me, share+like this I’ll follow you back!Ju☺️💙
