In a world of "influencers" & celebrity it was powerful to see @cristiano reject junk food on stage and promote water to all his young fans. @HKane @andrewrobertso5 I agree with @BiteBack2030 — will you join @cristiano and move junk food off stage before the 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 match?

@sbattrawden @piersmorgan We are seeing increasing anger and abuse towards the NHS and its staff. Samantha of @TheDA_UK has asked that those supporting the NHS, might put a blue heart 💙 next to their name in support of the NHS staff. Would you be willing to join us on this?
