I think, with regret, it is time to leave Twitter/X. This platform is a catalyst for hate and division. It has become markedly worse. I’ve achieved much more campaigning for change in the real world than I ever have on here. So, that’s where I’ll focus all my energy. Peace ✌️

Are you watching @elonmusk? Do you understand the significance of these two particular papers standing with these huge crowds and overwhelming UK public opinion… …and against you & your bot army incitement of thugs to a β€œcivil war”? My country is better than that. Learn it.

It is heartwarming to see so many people of all backgrounds and all walks of life standing peacefully together in solidarity against racism, Islamophobia and violence. We are indebted to our brave police officers who put themselves in harm’s way to keep our communities safe.

The gammonati have messed up. Farage hugely weakened and looks truly scared of the monster he stirred. Laurence Fox, tabloids et al back-peddling like mad. Onwards with a grown up government and a majority of good people who love Britain as a tolerant, multicutural society.

Anyone else woken up this morning to listen anxiously to the news and feeling relieved, prouder of who we are, and just a bit more disdainful of the Tommy Robinsons and Elon Musks of this world? Well done decency, well done the police

I’m holding advice surgeries in #Glastonbury and #Street next week. No appointment necessary, just drop-in. I know these times won’t work for everyone, so if you need my help but can’t meet me on Thursday 15th just send me a message and I’ll do everything I can to help.

The riots and disorder that we have seen this week are unacceptable. I would urge anyone who has been affected by the abhorrent violence and rhetoric to get in touch with me.

Christ, Twitter/X has become a bit of a cesspit in recent days hasn’t it. If ever you needed evidence of how toxic and divisive and frankly dangerous social media can be what more proof do you need?

So a GP will spend 10 mins seeing a patient Then a PA will spend 10 mins seeing a patient, but the GP will have to spend another 5-10 mins checking to see if the PA did the job correctly Isn't this is a massive inefficiency πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ Why not get rid of PAs and hire more GPsπŸ‘ Who comes up with these ridiculous tax payer money wasting policies that endanger patients and waste our taxes on under qualified staff in frontline NHS services? I bet it was the 14 years of the Conservatives trying to create a two tier health system πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

I’ve been on anti-Brexit protests in my time. We didn’t smash shops, loot Greggs, or set fire to libraries. Guess what. I wasn’t arrested.
⚠️ There is two tier policing in the UK. Here’s my handy guide: 1️⃣ Rioting and looting? Arrested🚨 2️⃣ Protesting? Not arrested.

The scenes from Southport are incredibly moving. Children, amongst a sea of flowers, blowing bubbles into the air to represent β€œkisses to heaven” in commemoration of Bebe, Alice and Elsie. A beautiful, poignant tribute, full of innocence and hope. What a wonderful community.

The Police need the practical and political support of our Police & Crime Commissioner. Frontline police doing a very difficult and dangerous job do not need their boss to be legitimising the violence and rioting. She should consider her position. itv.com/news/meridian/2024-0…

I stand with everyone who feels afraid at the shocking scenes playing out across the country. There is no place for hate in #Somerset. Report all and every hate crime here: avonandsomerset.police.uk/re…
