It is time the government understands the science and maths and acts upon it now, immediately, rather than delaying and wasting the lives of tens of thousands of our fellow citizens and workers here in London and across UK. #COVID19 #CircuitBreaker #CircuitBreak

Thousands of women are being missed while homeless on the streets: 'I was afraid to sleep'

As many as 10 times more women could be rough sleeping across England compared to the official count, the women's rough sleeping census

It was a privilege to meet with SEND parents in Surrey and hear firsthand about the appalling treatment they have faced.
For too long, families have been forced to fight a failing system just to secure basic support. We need urgent reform that puts children first.

Being a carer means showing up every day, doing what needs to be done, often without anyone noticing.
That’s why I’m so glad Carers Week this year is all about building carer-friendly communities, where carers are recognised and supported.

Palantir your NHS data = mass surveillance

This week MPs urged the government to exercise a “break clause” in the contract in 2027, using the remaining time to shop around for British alternatives

This additional screening is because black men have a much higher risk of prostate cancer than white men or men of Asian origin.
Any man who is worried about prostate cancer can speak to their GP about a test.
Corrected that for you @ZiaYusufUK

On the day the whole political establishment claims we do not live in a two tier country, they announce this.
Note, the NHS makes NO drugs available exclusively to white people.

Absolutely devastating news, all of the families are in our thoughts.
It is with deep sadness that we can confirm three members of the Royal Navy have died during a helicopter training exercise on Wednesday 3 June near Sourton, Devon.

ALT Hearing those words from Henry Nowak’s family is heartbreaking. It’s hard to imagine such enormous pain and grief. No one should die like that. This was an evil murder made so much worse by the police response. The independent investigation must uncover how they got it so badly wrong, and all police forces must act on its findings to make sure nothing like this can happen again. - Ed Davey

Most UK men should not be offered prostate cancer screening, experts say

“Without a screening programme for the UK’s most common cancer, we lose more than 12,000 dads, brothers and partners every single year,” @ProstateUK

While Farage pockets millions as a "reward" for Brexit, the rest of us are left with soaring energy bills, political chaos and a broken economy.
He only cares about himself and his wealthy donors. It is up to all of us to make sure he never becomes prime minister.

I'm backing the Liberal Democrats' campaign for Fair Votes.
Our current electoral system robs millions of voters of a voice. It is time for proportional representation - making seats won match votes cast.
