“..black people are nine times more likely than white to be stopped by police in England and Wales. In London, black young men are NINETEEN times more likely to be stopped” Sadly, institutional racism is alive and well. #BLM #KickItOut #FightRacism theguardian.com/uk-news/2021…

Working TOGETHER we have sent a powerful message to UK News shows if they won’t hold this Prime Minister to account for his rampant lying in Parliament we will do it ourselves!
How long can you ignore it now @BBCNews @BBCBreakfast ?

There was dinosaur dancing, samosas + big smiles😃🦖

Our 2nd outing this year was to Linn Park!🌳
After the adventure through the park, the Magic Ball got us kayaking down a fast river 🛶, finding an eco that says your name and climbing a massive mountain with ropes! licketyspit.com/bppg21-linn And we got our new Ts! 😍 #SummerOfPlay

Yesterday was the 5th anniversary of the #Brexit vote, and Scotland was taken out of the #EU against its will. Join #EuropeforScotland to help Scotland realise its democratic rights. Remember, #UK is a voluntary union. youtu.be/qPhPR59uM0M

#indyref2 The UK is a voluntary union. Time for Scotland to leave it.
On the fifth anniversary of the Brexit referendum, our message to remember the Brexit vote, reflect on the injustice of Scotland’s EU exit and express the hope of welcoming our Scottish friends back into the EU 💙

For months @NicolaSturgeon has faced a barrage of abuse. Our First Minister has acted with dignity, focused on tackling Covid and always accepted our failure to protect women who made complaints. The words below from the Independent Inquiry are a complete vindication of her.

"We are pioneers" @MareeToddMSP says she looks forward to "No Ball Games" signs across Scotland being replaced by "Children Welcome to Play" signs, following the passing of #UNCRCScotland.
"Today we are delivering a revolution!" 🤗🤗🤗

Fantastic moment as 🏴 leads the way on children's human rights with the #UNCRCScotland Bill.
Children know what they need, adults just need to learn to listen and to realise we all need what children need!
virginia Radcliffe retweeted
In our recent Have Your Say Through Play sessions, the #RighttoWork was *the single biggest issue* raised by parents when asked about supporting & upholding their children's rights.
And their children agree, as these 6 year old #newscots testify👇#LifttheBan #UNCRCScotland

Last week at #StoryplayCity, we baked a Rights Cake and travelled in the Magic Ball to the Scottish Parliament, to deliver it to @NicolaSturgeon! 🍰
