I was a runner up for Hero of the Month in my directorate today. I know it’s a bit silly but I’m so pleased! Being recognised feels so good, especially when there’s lots of pressure on. Feeling proud of myself 😊

I appreciate what I am going to say is going to be unpallatable for some but it needs to be said. It really doesn't matter how many stop and search charters you have, if fundamentally ethnic groups are still disproportionately (and wrongly) targeted by the process.

Our beauty, our sunshine in the darkest times. You spent so many happy times loving our new garden. Our new house is so empty without your beautiful thudding feet and constant chatter and giggles. I can't bear your empty bedroom, finished only a month ago. I'm just so lost. 💔

Long thread: The story and treatment of Marieha Hussain is one of the most alarming, ludicrous and unbelievable I’ve ever witnessed. It is a story of eye-wateringly blatant state racism, media complicity in that racism, police manipulation and cultural incompetence. And it is a story that must now end with the resignation of Stephen Parkinson, the current Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP). His position is untenable as he has turned the @CPSUK into a free-speech threatening laughing stock.

@andygeorgeni I am so pleased. The very fact she was in court yet all those other figures who use far more racialised speech against people of colour are not shows everything what's wrong with the world and the massive imbalances there are.

One of my biggest bug bears is the YEF Report is not getting the platform it deserves and is being underplayed.

We need to be better! How about @YouthEndowFund does a useful piece of research into impact poor mental health is having on crime & violence? #PublicHealth

As if we're having to say this in 2024, but we’ll say it again because stigma has real world consequences: 📢 mental health problems are real 📢 the national mental health crisis is real Some recent articles have been lacking facts and evidence, so let us share some (1/6)

These new statistics are shocking, but we’re not surprised. They back up what so many young people have already told us. And it’s a burden that falls disproportionately on minoritised young people. x.com/ChildrensComm/…
Children's Commissioner for England@ChildrensComm

Today I have published new analysis of the strip searching of children - the first full picture of searches conducted by police from 2018 to 2023. It has found that in that time, one child was strip searched every 14 hours by police, on average. (1/5) childrenscommissioner.gov.uk/resource/strip…

YEF research found Stop and search reduces crime in the UK by just 5%, In 2022-23, stop and search was used by the police more than 500,000 times in England and Wales. Most searches found nothing, with 14% leading to an arrest and 3% finding a weapon What does that tell you?
Youth Endowment Fund@YouthEndowFund

🔍 How effective is stop and search at reducing violent crime? The YEF Toolkit shows stop and search reduces crime by 13% (global evidence), and by 5% (UK evidence). It also reviews racial disproportionality in the use of stop and search and the impact on Black and minority ethnic children. A summary on implementing effectively: ➡️Focus on targeted, intelligence-led approaches ➡️ Ensure officers are well-trained and follow best practices like those from @CollegeofPolice ➡️ Build trust by involving the community through scrutiny panels that review cases.

It’s so important we don’t forget the children here. #Safeguarding, #care, #support & #education will all be key. So many children will be scared by what’s happening, especially Muslim children. We have to make them feel safe in communities.

I can't believe what I am seeing... Setting fire ro a hotel in order to 'drive immigrants out'! Don't you dare call it patriotism! It is more like the attempted murder of families and children! I hope justice is swift and served. #Rotherham

I too have been shocked by her and others. What I would say to anyone thinking of becoming keyboard warriors over this is to just remember these are human beings and these groups draw in people who are often isolated or don't feel listened to. Hurt people, hurt people

I've seen Sammy Woodhouse in police training sessions, speaking compellingly on the abuse she suffered. Sad to see that she's gone all in with Tommy Robinson's lot.
