Festive plans are stacking up fast: markets, meet-ups, shows and last-minute gift runs. But while the city lights up, many patients in our North London hospitals will be spending the winter months away from their families, experiencing feelings of loneliness and isolation. #London #NHS
Every Thursday, volunteer Mehmet brings calm to Barnet Hospital wards by playing the ney for patients and staff. What began as a lockdown hobby, learned alone through YouTube tutorials, has grown into a passion that now brings comfort to others.

There is nothing Trump dislikes more than bad ratings. Kristi Noem getting fired is more evidence that we have power, and we have to use it.

Hegseth read a passage from the book of Ezekiel 25:17 but it was really from Pulp Fiction. When Trump read his Old Testament passage today I hoped it'd be from The Book of Armaments. Chapter 2 verses 9-21. @johnfugelsang.bsky.social @gottalaff.bsky.social @thefarce.org @salgentile.bsky.social
As of today, it’s been one year since Virginia Giuffre’s passing. Her courage has inspired so many survivors and their families, as well as myself and other leaders to keep fighting for accountability for the monsters who committed these horrific crimes. Thank you, Virginia.
