This "debate" about who should use what toilet doesn’t benefit anyone. It doesn’t fix the underfunding of women's refuges, NHS waiting lists leaving women in terrible pain, mums skipping meals to feed their kids. How about we get on with tackling the real issues affecting women?

@darrenpjones.bsky.social comparing benefit cuts to giving his kids £10 less pocket money per week… Borris Johnson knows the price of Champagne but not the price of milk… Poor old Rishi didn’t have Sky TV as a child… They have no idea what vulnerable people in the UK are going through #CutsKill

Labour is choosing to push 50,000 *more* children into poverty — and it is utterly disgraceful.

Today is #PurpleDay, and I want to raise awareness about epilepsy, a condition that affects 1 in 100 people in the UK. If you know someone with epilepsy reach out to them and remember Calm, Cushion, Call if you see someone having a seizure.

✊👏

Breaking news - government sleight of hand over poverty figures. Actual increase in poverty from their cuts to health related benefits is closer to 400,000 📢

The reality of what @teamlabouruk.bsky.social are doing

Cutting the health element of universal credit by 50%…. Labour really be saying “die” to the disabled community @teamlabouruk.bsky.social

Disability benefit cuts will push over 250,000 people into poverty, including 50,000 children. As a constituent of yours @darrenpjones.bsky.social I’d like to hear what you have to say about this

Fifteen years of austerity have devastated this country - but now Rachel Reeves is planning more cuts, plunging 50,000 children into poverty in the process. An indefensible choice. My piece for @metro.co.uk on the #SpringStatement. Link below!

Support meeting continuing tonight❤️ us06web.zoom.us/j/8653474012...
