These ‘he was a nice/normal guy’ quotes are not just on the interviewees, this is on media who search for them after murders. They hunt for these quotes, salaciously. They want to paint femicide as irregular. It IS regular. Multiple women are murdered by men every damn week!

I don't get to vote in this election, but I do have to live with whoever you elect.
No pressure. #GeneralElection24

Sierra Leone is home to 800,000 child brides, half of whom were married before the age of 15, according to a 2019 UNICEF report.
The passing of this law is great news.👏🏿

Unbelievable to see UN contravening its own principles and appeasing the Taliban by excluding women from the main part of their upcoming meeting in Doha on Afghanistan. Very much with @Malala on this

Unfortunately, it's trash. Worse than trash actually bc it's actively destroying our planet and eroding our communities. Not only that, but capitalists who have no connection to the arts or their own humanity are actively seeking to replace all of human creation with AI.

Sending huge congratulations to @johnmrutter on receiving his knighthood in the King’s Birthday Honours List 🎶
Our singers, who are rehearsing John Rutter’s Requiem today for their concert in L’Abbaye-aux-Hommes in Caen on Monday, have recorded this message! 🇫🇷

Students (present and past) and their supporters protested the planned closure of their junior department at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama with a play-in this afternoon.

Good to know that Graham King, whose company is paid £3.5m of our money every day to house asylum seekers, has made it onto the Sunday Times Rich List for the first time theguardian.com/business/art…. Meanwhile we delay their applications deliberately. This is simply money-laundering
Immigration minister Robert Jenrick says if you process the claims of asylum seekers more quickly that encourages more people to come.
He's admitting that leaving asylum seekers in limbo, in temporary accommodation, not allowed to work, not able to restart their lives, for years on end, is a deliberate policy.

Last month my complaint against my rapist’s defence lawyer was upheld and he’d been found to have “abused his position”. Today, I learned of the penalty. He will be fined, ordered to pay me compensation, and issued with a “severe written censure”. Misogyny has consequences.

“The way a government treats its refugees is very instructive because it shows you how they would treat the rest of us if they thought they could get away with it.”

I've unashamedly pilfered this fantastic photo off @misanharriman of
@HackneyAbbott .
I spent 4 long and fun evenings in Diane Abbot's company filming Celebrity Come Dine With Me and found her to be well read, extremely intelligent, humble, caring about society and community, down to earth, great fun and tolerant of how drunk both Wayne Sleep and myself got ...most nights. She is a credit to politics and to the @UKLabour . The attacks on her make me sick to the stomach. Through a life time of observance i know how tpugh it is for a black woman in our society - times that by ten for a politician especially one woth principles - but then that is why they so callously attack her and purposely misinterpret what she says . Let's hail her courage and fortitude . Also gives me a chance to play this great record in tribute to her m.youtube.com/watch?v=jHUQg5…

Individual racism = What Frank Hester said.
Systemic racism = Diane having to sit silently while others discussed her life.
Camouflaged racism = Garnering money and support from her pain while continuing to marginalise her.

This is awful to watch. Diane Abbott is not even allowed a voice to respond to the racist hate-filled language that has been directed at her. Yet, of course a load of men get to stand up and have their voices heard talk about it.
Diane Abbott has criticised the Speaker after he failed to call on her during today's Prime Minister's Questions, despite standing up 46 times.

I was sat next to Diane in Prime Minister's Questions.
She wanted to have her voice heard, not just be spoken for by others.
I find it astonishing – and deeply disappointing – she wasn't given that opportunity.

If you want to know what systemic racism & misogyny looks like, it’s having a debate about whether a political donor saying he wants to shoot a black MP is a bad thing and not allowing that MP to talk on her own behalf while she’s stood in the same room asking to speak. #PMQs

Happy international Women’s day to all the big companies and brands who used to treat this day as a pinnacle of their calendar but are too scared to tweet now in case we see your gender pay gap. We can see you gender-pay-gap.service.gov.u… #IWD

An oak is a tremulous tenor
Tulip soprano and lotus sing
They herald winter's successor
The aria of spring

Violent night violent night
All is harm all is fight
Found unstirring mother and child
Holding infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
