For many NHS staff, the recent racist violence in this country will leave them feeling afraid and unwelcome. To those colleagues, our message is simple: you are welcome and you are valuable members of our community. Reach out for support if you need it. england.nhs.uk/supporting-ou…

This is absolutely sickening and horrifying. What is the justification for setting fire to a hotel that maybe housing Asylum seekers? Any right-minded people should be condemning this violence.  I hope those taking part in this violence will face the full force of the law.

Solidarity, love and strength to everyone affected by this weekend's appalling violence. Thank you to the tens of thousands of people, many in Cities of Sanctuary, who have stood up for their neighbours & cleaned up after these mobs. There are far more of us than of them.

The tobacco epidemic is one of the world's largest, yet preventable, public health threats. Not only does tobacco harm users & those around them, but it also harms our planet. More from @WHO on Friday's World #NoTobacco Day: who.int/campaigns/world-no-t… 🚭

A warning for anyone standing in the background while Sunak pleads for people to vote for him - if you don't look enthusiastic about what he's saying someone on his team will get a text telling them to block you from view...

Great to discuss the importance of #RightToRepair with @RestartProject at their Parliamentary Repair Cafe. Reusing products and repairing them when they break reduces our impact on the planet, saves us money and can be incredibly rewarding.
