“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

Social care reforms delayed again.
Need:
Integrated healthcare system.
Universal healthcare funded out of general taxation.
End to privatisation. 30% -40% of public money handed to corporate controlled care homes vanishes in profits. Tax abuse rife. Money buys less.

The work of Christmas begins
To ensure inclusion for the marginalised
To bring liberty to the oppressed
To welcome the refugee
To seek justice for all

I am not a fan of Gregg Wallace and i find much of his alleged behaviour to be reprehensible. Yet i have concerns that his public shaming may have a bad effect on his mental health. After all he is a human and surely nobody wants a Caroline Flack style ending to this story.

That’s the number of emergency food parcels that food banks in our community have provided in just 6 months.
