Rest in peace Loretta Swit who will always be known for the iconic role of Major Margaret "Hot Lips" Houlihan on M*A*S*H. She held court on that stage every week.

7 years without you. The FAI is over and this year for the first time we only have our grief and our pain of not having you with us. Every day we remember you Katie, everyday you are loved. ❤️

My open letter on Peter Krykant. He was brave, complex, and deeply human. He deserved protection, not performance. This isn’t a comfortable read. But it’s an honest one. About recovery, power, and what happens when the vulnerable are co-opted, not cared for. Peter had 11 years

After her 5 years in Iran’s Evin Prison, bombed the other day by Israel, Nazanin Zachary-Ratcliffe writes: ‘If Evin taught me anything, it was that freedom does not come from bombs and brutality, nor from clever stunts for the cameras. It lies in human connection and empathy.’

What are the #MandelaRules❓ ▶️ These crucial UN standards provide the blueprint for safe, humane and effective #prison management. But in too many prisons they are not yet a reality. Join UN Office on Drugs & Crime on Friday's #MandelaDay 2025 to call for their universal practical application❗️

The only line of political accountability for the NHS runs to Ministers. Every issue they refuse to answer questions about becomes, by definition, one where there is no political accountability.

Reading the commentary on the NHS Fife ET, so many parallels with our FAI. “Wasnae me”, “Can’t remember “, “ Don’t know” (but gets paid to know)…. Well paid, mismanaged public servants who simply don’t care.
