Neurologists confirm family arguments trigger the same brain response in children as soldiers in combat.
Arguments and fights they witness at home shape their brain similar to those in high-stress situations.

It's not our fault that for years we used the only emotional regulation "tools" we knew, including dissociation. We couldn't use tools we weren't taught or modeled. We weren't "choosing;" we were running the only patterns we had available.
Trauma responses aren't "choices."

Very timely, in today's Mail on Sunday - "Ex-defence chiefs lead calls for SAS legend to get posthumous VC for wartime heroics." Please share to spread the word - let's get this over the line and a great wrong rightly corrected. Thanks.🙏

Many seem to forget that many farmers are working all the hours going, just surviving to make sure we have food on our table. Many family farms wealth is only the value of their land which they see nothing of unless it’s sold. Passing the work on to their children shouldn’t be a worry or burden.

It would cost £6bn/year for 10 yrs to bring housing standard up to decent level in UK. More than 50 places across England & Wales acting on #SDH in spite of central government inaction, with Scotland now working with @MarmotIHE. I am optimistic & hopeful @KeirStammer will act.
1/3 households in UK living in cold, damp dwellings, affecting children's lungs, mental health & schooling; damaging health of adults @MichaelMarmot told @BBCr4today; not seen in colder countries like Sweden & Finland - their homes are fit for purpose bit.ly/3AFsyd6

If the new Government on Friday wants to make a real difference to help Ukraine with ‘non lethal aid” gas masks would be a good start & the UK is the leading gas mask producer in the World! Nearly 3000 uses by Russia in the last 12 months

The Prime Minister says: we have reduced child poverty by hundreds of thousands. Please look at this graph of destitution. Most important is the problem - the steep rise in destitution - but also important is trying to say that it doesn't exist.
A national scandal: Levels of destitution not seen since the earlier 20th century are just the tip of an iceberg of poisonous inequality, insecurity and destruction
