It would have been Cilla Black's 81st birthday today, so a good excuse as any to repost one of my favourite stories about her (from Popbitch of course)

A shocking and stark reminder that access to dentistry can be a life or death issue

A stark reminder that access to dentistry can be a life or death issue.
Nick Whelan ended up in ICU with dental sepsis & now lives with permanent scars.
Hospital dentists have seen a spike in cases
It’s not enough to call it 'Dickensian' – we need action to stop this UK-wide.

When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, ‘what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?’ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. He’s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.
