Labour's Sarah Champion Claims Sitting MPs Could 'In Some Way' Be Linked To Child Abuse

Speaking to the House magazine, Champion argued abuse is “always about power” and it did “not take a conspiracy theorist” to realise how sitting MPs could abuse their power.The MP went on to claim that ex-Prime Minister David Cameron understood the need to take on child sexual abuse because he is a father, but the issue has dropped off Theresa May -

What Is It Like To Have A Hysterectomy In Your 20s Or 30s?

Even if I could get pregnant, there’s nothing I can offer.”Doctors found that in addition to endometriosis, where tissue that behaves like the lining of the womb is found -
Why We Must Read Outside Of Our Comfort Zone
Lately I have been reminiscing about how I used to sit with friends in coffee shops and talk about culture and current affairs, moving through disagreements without dramatic exits or the imperative to agree. In recent years, I have noticed a cultural shift in how we react to disagreement in online discussions. Social media, once the space to share family photos and catch up with friends several countries away, has become this arena of dogmatism where differing viewpoints are unwelcome, even host -

Boris' Use Of The Betrayal Myth Will Divide Further
“I detect a hardening of the mood, a deepening of the anger. I fear that some people are becoming ever more determined to stop Brexit, to reverse the referendum vote of June 23 2016, and to frustrate the will of the people. I believe that would be a disastrous mistake that would lead to permanent and ineradicable feelings of betrayal. We cannot and will not let it happen.” (Boris Johnson, 14 February 2018)Politicians have a responsibility to be ever vigilant about the way that langua -

We Need To Tear Down Barriers Preventing Us From Building Community And Relationships
Britain stands at a crossroads. If we do not take action now to bridge the divides in our communities, we run the risk that they will grow into gulfs. Whether it is rich and poor, Muslim and Christian, old and young, or black and white – we are too often living parallel rather than interconnected lives.But it is possible to do something. Remember the London 2012 Olympic Games? That Olympic ideal showed a way that Britain could be more than the sum of its parts, a country where we embrace o -
Making The Case For Better Care – And Making It Happen
With a government green paper on reforming care due this summer, expectations are mixed.Some see this as the best and only opportunity to fix the beleaguered care system.

Marie Kondo Netflix Show: 6 Women Share The Things They Learned From Decluttering
After my own Mari-moment at the beginning of 2018, I asked five other women what they learned from Marie Kondo and more broadly, from decluttering their lives. Adopting the KonMari method doesn’t have to be all or nothing.For me, it started in January when a friend suggested I read Marie Kondo’s book at the start of 2018 to help get my life in order. But investing in a whole novel felt like an awful lot of commitment just for a tidy wardrobe.So (as with many aspects of my life) -
As Someone Who Has Had A Hysterectomy This Is Why I Support Lena Dunham's Decision
First of all, I recognise that hysterectomy for endometriosis is not a cure. If the endometriosis is elsewhere other than the uterus, excision is currently the best option rather than hysterectomy. If hysterectomy is undertaken it is important that all endometriosis is removed/excised from all areas to avoid it flaring up (even after hysterectomy).However, I woke today to a steam of confusion over Lena Dunham’s decision to have a hysterectomy. There is huge fear and concern over the spread -
