Enough’s enough.
The Government must urgently investigate why BAME people are more likely to die from #COVID19 and what they are going to do to stop it. The longer they delay, the more people die. We can't wait any longer.

I’m rarely more aware of being in an ethnic minority than when reading, watching and listening to the British media cover race. I think things are better in all sorts of ways than when I started in 1988, but not by nearly enough.

I wept in my car as I drove through London this evening. So many people out & about. I’d just finished a 12hr day (ICU Dr) on a Covid ICU. Patients fighting for their lives. One sadly died. The UK lockdown is a joke. Is >30,000 deaths not enough?! #extendlockdown

#Marr programme:
Marr: “How are we going to pay for this?”
Gove: “We’ve got to put the lives of the vulnerable ahead of everything else.”
Exactly
I hope ministers will remember these #LessonsFromCoronavirus when it comes to protecting the vulnerable from any further austerity

A heartbreaking sign of our times. This is the livestream of people turning to @CitizensAdvice for help: bit.ly/2wB5hbJ The search terms speak for themselves. Our website is now nearing 400,000 hits a *day* - and the underlying stats are staggering. (1/n)

Graphs are useful but to really get what that rising curve is, have a look at the obituaries page of this Bergamo daily newspaper, comparing one from February with one from now

Requiring Commonwealth ex-servicemen to pay thousands in visa fees to remain in the country they risked their lives for seems about as wrong as a thing can get. What am I missing?

What messages are we giving women? “Just be a lady, they say”

‘I thought a #foodbank was where food came out of a bank’ - Courtney, 8, should never have needed to find out what a food bank was. But waiting #5WeeksTooLong for #UniversalCredit meant her family were pushed to a food bank. It doesn’t have to be like this. #Dispatches

We can reach a future where no one needs a #foodbank – #GE2019 candidates on all sides must pledge to protect people from hunger by ensuring we all have enough money for the basics. We want our next govt to start working towards this future by doing 3 things 👇 #ThisCanChange
