    What a damning indictment on today’s troubled society, the revealing that 62% of working age people referred to food banks at the start of 2020 were disabled. Appalling!!

    Reaching for the sky in my freedom machine. 🙌🏻 Pls drop the negative terms, like ‘stuck in a wheelchair/wheelchair bound’. are tools of freedom and living. We use them for many reasons. We are . Here’s to a more world, without stigma.

    Tara Moss is an author and disabled woman in her wheelchair Hera, reaching up into the blue sky as she pops a wheelie. Her wheel hubs feature Frida Kahlo.

    I'm appalled that yesterday on Radio 4, the Universities Minister Michelle Donelan explicitly stated that Holocaust denial would be protected under new campus free speech proposals. Today, I raised a Point of Order in the house: Holocaust denial should never be protected speech.

    Millennials hold 4.8% of all wealth. There are now 40-year-old Millennials. At the same age, Gen X had 9% of wealth. Boomers had 21% The largest generation in history did what the system told them to do and became the most-educated in history. Now they're the poorest in history

    It's Look her in the eye, , and tell her she doesn't deserve a proper, real terms pay rise. Not claps. Not rainbows. Not badges. Not empty gestures. Value her. And every NHS nurse like her.

    Dr sent off an urgent 2 week referral for investigations this morning, one of those ‘got to rule out the big C’ referrals 😣 Warned me that because I’m under 40 they might refuse to see me and put me on the (year long) waiting list...

    There's no such thing as a "low-skill" job. Only low-paid jobs.

    It’s . And if you believe they deserve a proper pay rise instead of a hashtag, a clap and rainbow badges pinned to the lapel of ministers who cut their pay yearly in real terms, RT this 💙

    Absolutely stomping interview by Ambassador - so articulate, clear & filled with humanity. Everyone should watch & share this video, it goes to the heart of the Palestinian struggle.

    Brilliant interview: “Your questions always start with the symptoms and never the illness itself.”

    It's essential to be able to continue to hold virtual meetings. They improve accessibility to local democracy from all walks of life. We risk local government being paralysed. I support Mumsnet's campaign for urgent legislation to allow local councils to keep this option.

    👏 If you require people to have photo ID to vote but don't provide free photo ID, you are requiring people to pay to vote 👏

    16 years a criminal barrister in London and never done an electoral fraud/voter impersonation case. Also don't know anyone who has. Voter ID is a solution without a problem. But voter ID is a problem.

    Labour's new Shadow Chancellor really wants Labour to be 'tougher than the Tories on Welfare'. I thought a Labour chancellor should really want to transition to a Green economy, or close tax havens or adopt a living wage for all. (Not target sick & disabled people.)
