Some women and their partners tell us because they fear judgement they disclose their #tfmr to very few. This can make the experience even more isolating. We need to raise awareness and #BreakTheSilence.

As we approach the local elections on the 4th May, Hendrix and Benji have given us a helping paw to show how easy it is to vote, and what you can expect when visiting a polling station. 🐾 #LocalElections #DogsAtPollingStations Got a question? Visit: https://t.co/7nS1rEc5vg

Hey @BorisJohnson, thought I’d do a survey to help you read the room. A simple question: Should Stanley Johnson (Boris Johnson’s father) receive a knighthood? Please retweet once you answer so that we can get as many responses as possible

Not everybody will want to talk about their experience of TFMR, but we must give space and time to those who do and always listen well #BreakTheSilence To share your story, email info@arc-uk.org.

Thank you for everything that you do.
Baby loss is a taboo subject – it is rarely spoken about. There remains particular stigma around #tfmr. We aim to change this. It is a private and painful experience but shouldn’t be a shameful secret.

We should not tolerate hospital visits by @SteveBarclay until the govt sits down with NHS experts and fixes the crises in NHS funding, beds, staff, and social care. Rewarding the arsonists with a visit to inspect their own fire is cuckoo bananas insane. #SOSNHS

You misinterpret my song "Something Inside So Strong". #BorisJohnson's 1st instinct is to lie (his safe place) He defines the electorate as "stooges" I assessed him as not be trusted after seeing him on "Have I Got News For You". He continues to confirm my assessment as accurate.
My reaction when the left are panicking, spitting feathers and frantically sending me abusive messages because we want to #BringBackBoris He is a winner and the opponent they fear the most.

Happy 28th birthday @BattlefieldRest, pictured here in 1971 by Mike Bennett. Despite being a one of a kind, it was threatened with demolition in 1990. A petition saved it & it was purchased by Marco Giannasi who restored it and opened their amazing restaurant there in 1994.

‘The Iranian regime kills women for trying to live freely. This is not just Iran’s problem, it is the world’s problem. Do not look away. This denial of basic human rights is an affront to human dignity...' @ShappiKhorsandi

I have zero tolerance for people who talk at my (or anybody’s) acoustic shows, especially within earshot of the stage. If you want to listen to them rather than me then by all means have your money back. I hate losing my temper in public, but if I’m provoked…
@RobynHitchcock disgusting behaviour tonight at your show in Totnes. Losing ur shit at a fan, and severely abusing her in an intimidating manor. I’ll be asking for my money back, and hope other people had the guts to leave your show like we did. Absolutely pathetic.
