Truth to Power: 7 Ways to Call Time on B.S. | Jess Phillips

pick

Empowering, informative and actually funny! Not rocket science, but good advice and call to action about making a stand, against big and little things.
I have a lot of respect for this MP, she is also a very good communicator.

rockpools Yes to all of that! 5y

squirrelbrain What @RachelO said. I like Jess Phillips - she talks a lot of sense. 5y

IReadThereforeIBlog I like Phillips. Don‘t always agree with her but she doesn‘t say things for effect. 5y

TrishB @RachelO @squirrelbrain @Quippe she also comes across as very normal! 5y

#weeklyforecast
These seemed to appeal most to me this morning. I don‘t know whether I need Jess Phillips today or I may need her more on Friday.
I‘ll be train travelling on Friday for my sons masters degree graduation, I have no idea how we‘re all going to be feeling so it will either be a splendid day or not. Won‘t forget this graduation!!

Cinfhen Why the mixed feelings towards his graduation??? Does C start her uni break ??? I can‘t really settle on anything either and my daughter is driving me bonkers with her London plans!!! Everyday she is sending me restaurant links for where she wants to make reservations. I swear one place had carrots in a harissa sauce for 26 pounds and another offered a head of cauliflower for 29 pounds. She‘s insane!!! I nixed both places 5y

Cathythoughts Sounds like a big day ! I hope it goes really well 👍🏻❤️ 5y

squirrelbrain I‘m sure you‘ll have a lovely day regardless.... 😘 5y

TrishB @Cinfhen it‘s the election on Thursday, my son and his bf have been campaigning tirelessly for 4 weeks, so if it doesn‘t go the way we went we will all be slightly subdued. But need to focus on celebrating his achievement!! 5y

TrishB @Cinfhen we have been to a lovely vege pub in soho - I‘ll get the name off my son, can‘t remember at the moment! C will be home Saturday! (edited) 5y

TrishB @Cathythoughts @squirrelbrain I‘m sure we will 😘♥️ 5y

Cinfhen Oh, good luck on Thursday!! Hope you have LOTS to celebrate 🎉 💚☘️ 5y

Balibee146 Have a wonderful day at graduation. Fingers crossed for Thursday eh.... Feels like so much at stake 😱 I'm so scared 😨 5y

TrishB @Balibee146 I feel sick about. I‘m not sure what the country will become if we have another 5 years of Tory rule. 5y

Balibee146 @TrishB I know.... Especially the horror of BoJo and his cronies....NHS being further dismantled no doubt.... So scared for the world my boys will become adults in....😨 5y

TrishB @Balibee146 it‘s very worrying 😕 5y

Kalalalatja Hoping for the best on Thursday, and that you can enjoy Friday a bit, no matter the outcome 🤞💕 5y

Andrew65 Be interested to see what you make of The Witch‘s Daughter. 5y

Andrew65 @TrishB To be honest I am VERY worried whoever wins! 😔 Don‘t think either of two main parties fit to run the country, and I have been a lifelong Labour supporter so hurts me to say that. @Balibee146 (edited) 5y

Balibee146 @Andrew65 I hear you.... Lifelong Labour here though disenfranchised by New Labour and the Blair years etc.... Arguably I have more options in Scotland.... First time ever trying to balance beliefs vs tactical voting....i think we're flecked either way tbh 😢😢 5y

Andrew65 @Balibee146 Unfortunately I agree with you! 😢 5y

Balibee146 @Andrew65 even with the random extra 'l' that I put in fecked ... 😨🙈 5y

Andrew65 @Balibee146 Can‘t beat an extra l for effect. 😂 (edited) 5y

TrishB @Balibee146 @Andrew65 I thought it was a special Scottish version 😁 5y

Balibee146 @TrishB och aye 😉 5y

This last few weeks has been so busy! I‘ve had so many things in my calendar that I can‘t get my head around what I‘ve done, what I need to do and how to even start. I‘m taking the first step by procrastinating, reading and drinking tea. This is by far the most exciting thing that I have on my list so far!

Another one of Jess Phillips‘ talk tonight at Birmingham Literature Festival, with Helen Pankhurst. You can just about see us at the top, way up in the heights! The talk was brilliant!

These words were written by Daphne Caruana Galizia, a Maltese journalist who spent her entire career uncovering wrong-doing by the Maltese government, including tax evasion, off shore financial corruption and selling of passports to businessmen who wanted to gain access to the EU. Caruana Galizia was one of the people who broke this global scandal.

I‘m really excited to start this, as I‘ve got tickets to see Jess Phillips speak tomorrow at Birmingham Literature Festival. I‘m really looking forward to it! Also to seeing Clementine Ford tonight speaking about toxic masculinity and ‘Boys will be Boys‘ culture.
