Dismayed by the posts about pets being scared by fireworks. My concern is about people, military veterans who have PTSD, for whom the cracks & bangs take them to a bad place. If any callsign on this means needs an ear to spin a dit to tonight or over the weekend, PM me. CC1. Out.
⚠️ Please take care if you're out.
Words to consider and ponder as we come to the end of this strangest of years. So much loss - of life, freedoms, jobs,loved ones and so many things we all treasure but didn't fully appreciate. It is important to grieve to help healing and look forward. Hopes for a better 2021🙏

We’ve had a few messages from people reporting that they’ve had representatives from AlzScot attend at their home attempting to secure donations. We do not conduct any door-to-door or cold telephone fundraising, and we would not condone this taking place on our behalf.
Just watched the first item on STV news showing an elderly care home resident being allowed to hug her friend at their first proper visit since lockdown. Feeling so emotional! Praying that it won't be long before every resident can hug their loved ones. @NDCAN_Scotland @

Dear @sajidjavid My elderly patient couldn’t even afford the bus fare to my surgery, so she walked 25 mins in this freezing weather for her appointment. …& you want to CHARGE patients £20 for a GP appointment?! Do you all just not give a damn about our country’s poorest?! 🤬
Sajid Javid calls for an introduction of a £20 fee to see GP and a £66 charge for A&E visits If the Tories get their way this will be the end of the NHS as we know it If you'll fight this with us please reply with a 💙. #OurNHS

Increasing rate of dementia diagnosis in care homes without providing follow up support is ridiculous. What's needed is investment in social care so people can enjoy a better quality of life. england.nhs.uk/2022/12/nhs-la…
Nurses work 12hr shifts; sell their days off; use food banks; pay £1300 a year to park. And 40,000 have left their jobs in a year. Tory MPs sit for 150 days; get subsidised food; claim travel & energy on expenses; get free parking & £2,200 pay rises. Back the nurses please.
The best view comes after the hardest climb. 🗻 #MondayMotivation #IGStirUni The beautiful city of #Stirling captured by @charles.mcguigan on IG📸 #IGStirUni #BeHereBeStirling
Translation: the British government has made a conscious choice to inflict harm on the NHS in the hope they can privatise it.

@JeremyClarkson What Jeremy Clarkson should have said. I apologise for being a misogynist But I’m not man enough to apologise to the target of my abuse or repeat my abuse to her face. I’m not man enough to apologise to my daughter. Meghan’s husband or her family. Let’s face it I’m not man enough
@JeremyClarkson So many opportunities not to get it so spectacularly and offensively wrong; The Sun published it, The editor passed it, You submitted it, You wrote it, And you thought it. That's not clumsy, that's purposeful. You now being "horrified" doesn't cut it.
I will tell you want gets me, waking up from a great dream and realising I still have cancer and so many treatments to go through and knowing my life expectancy is cut short- the feeling is like a someone dropping a brick on your chest. But I’ll keep going till I can’t
I don’t know about you, but ‘ oh dear, I put my foot in it ‘ doesn’t really cut it for me.
Nurses will be on strike again tomorrow Paramedics will be on strike for the first time on Wednesday If you support striking NHS workers please reply with a 💙. #FairPayforNursing #NHSStrikes
