@Valerie_VazMP would you like to come and visit our base in Bloxwich to see first hand what impact this has on families and children?

I take a risk as a service pvdr by nailing my political colours to the mast but as a lifetime Labour voter and a party member, NEVER did I think that abused, traumatised children wd be in safer hands w the tories. This is such an incredibly stupid, cruel decision @JanetDaby

This will just mean we’re forced into offering interventions that don’t work. Utterly, utterly contemptibly ridiculous.

I am furious! The idea that kids who have been abused and neglected are now forced into short-term, ‘quick-fix’ therapy is disgusting. I will regulate myself and we will campaign but right now @JanetDaby @bphillipsonMP you should be utterly ashamed

Can't remember the last time Twitter made me so happy - all the footage, from across the country, of peaceful anti-racist protests. Streets jammed. Poetic that the opposite of civil war is all over Musk's platform.

What a headline. There is hope.

I’d like to talk about my Dad. He came to England from India at age 17. He had a brutal childhood- he’s refused to talk us kids about it but part of his childhood involved living on the streets as a child in India Coming to England saved his life. Literally. He has worked - shop keeper, then taxi driver & has contributed to tax his whole life here. He refused to charge people for his taxi service when they visited hospitals, students who felt unsafe walking at night etc. He worked 7 days a week, and we lived month to month. My Mum, at the age of 64, still works full time as an insurance broker & has also paid tax her entire working life. My Dad retired at the age of 70 during the pandemic as he was diagnosed with cancer. Thankfully he’s currently in remission 🙏 As soon as he was given the “all clear” he could finally pursue his dream - to feed those in need. At the age of 70 he asked my Mum to teach him how to cook. Every Tuesday he buys food to feed about 100/200 homeless people a week. He wakes up at 3am every Wednesday to cook the food, package & distribute it with a team of volunteers who also provide them warm clothing, cut their hair etc with nothing but love. The volunteers are from all backgrounds, all colours, all ethnicities as are the people they serve. He is the kindest, most compassionate person I know. To have people judge him based on the colour of his skin breaks my heart beyond measure.

Birmingham to Brighton 🫵🏽💙🫱🏻‍🫲🏾 Racism and pure hatred of Muslims is getting put back in the bin. Tommy the tit is going to jail for a long time and your nan is getting Samosas this weekend. We will figure out the issues. That’s our job as a society. A community. This is England. Our England 🫵🏽🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🫱🏻‍🫲🏾🫵🏿💙

Hometown of Bolton was expecting far right thugs to come out on force… they didn’t show their faces and were countered by this group. Bolton is diverse, anti racist and proud @LauraKhanNews @AlJazeera

'So far, the counter-protests are peaceful.' Sky's @pkelso reports from Birmingham, where far-right protesters are yet to appear and 'instead we have an eloquent expression of Birmingham's distaste for racist views.' trib.al/FosdZVZ 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233

I don’t know Margaret but she just stopped me in the street and said “I’ve seen what’s going on and it’s not right. You should feel safe in this country and I want you to know I’m not racist.” You might think how can I possibly make a difference? She did in her own little way.

A video speaks a thousand words. Under police protection, the far right fascists. Counter protestors, peaceful but firm. #Brighton doing its thing. Stay peaceful folks

Liverpool banned The Sun and told Nigel Farage to eff off. Now they've stood up to racist bullies by rebuilding the things that the thugs tried to destroy. Could any city be more awesome? #Liverpool

Solidarity to my old home town of Northampton and the hundreds who turned up to protest the far-right. What a turnout! ❤️❤️

In the darkness of all this evil shite recently I am so proud to say I am from Newcastle. A list went out to say that a potential target was at risk today and hundreds of people have turned up to protect it!!! That’s my home town and we don’t stand for any shite!!!! 🖤🤍
