    Today I urged the Govt to release Kickstart Scheme data at a local level, after concerns were raised at a business roundtable. The Minister revealed only 19% of Kickstart places created so far in SE have been filled. Local data will help us get more young people into these jobs.

    It does appear that Boris Johnson put the pursuit of a post-Brexit trade deal with India ahead of public health. The Covid public inquiry must look into this decision and whether it was influenced by politics and not the science.

    The rising tension and violence is deeply concerning. The Government must do their part to help de-escalate the violence. International pressure must be applied to ensure both sides abide by their commitments under international law. - speaks to ⬇️
