Inspiring to see role-models like @JonnyWilkinson & @therock speaking publicly, personally, & bravely about #mensmentalhealth. Let’s shift society’s expectations of little boys so they don’t grow up feeling like strength equates to stifling vulnerability & suffering in silence. xitter.cf/thismorning/status/980…
Jonny Wilkinson battled severe anxiety during the peak of his career, referring to himself as ‘a shivering wreck’ in the dressing rooms before each important game. Here he tells us about his struggle with mental health... #Project84

Remembering the Holocaust does not mean criticising Labour or Corbyn or backing their critics. Nor does it mean supporting the Israeli govt or ignoring the Palestinians. It is simply the way we all face up to the worst that man can do to man & pledge “Never Again”

20 years ago on Good Friday the Good Friday Agreement was signed by the UK and Irish Governments & the parties in Northern Ireland bringing peace after decades of bloodshed. Let’s safeguard it by stopping a hard Irish border and keeping the UK in the Customs Union & Single Market

The Gvt. has to provide clarity on border arrangements post-Brexit. Airbus has reiterated its threat to leave the UK. It needs its parts and staff to be able to move freely around its sites in Europe, with parts sometimes crossing the border 3 times. Wake-up @theresa_may.

The EU didn’t destroy public services.
The EU didn’t cause wages to decline.
The EU didn’t cause the NHS crisis.
The EU didn’t cut the police force.
The EU didn’t cause the housing crisis.
The EU didn’t underfund schools.
Don’t blame the EU. Blame the government instead.

A hard #Brexit could cost the Irish economy €18 billion, resulting in thousands of job losses and leading to the cost of the trade of goods to the UK rising by more than 30 per cent. @theresa_may must step-up and deal with this economic and security issue.

Liam Fox pledged that 40 trade deals would be in place by the point of Brexit. So after jetting 290,000 miles around the world – slightly further than a trip to the moon, how many trade deals has he signed so far? 0

I hear 2 women Florence & Opelo ,who were on hunger strike at #YarlsWood, due to be summarily deported tonight. Yet legal processes are ongoing. If this is true it is a complete abuse of due process & Amber Rudd will have to answer for it in Parliament @AyoCaesar @detainedvoices

Congratulations to Canada on their new 'genderful' Budget introducing over $100m for women specific business support and a $1.4bn fund. A game changer for the Canadian economy xitter.cf/sandra_altner/status/9…
Thrilled to moderate the post budget discussion with Hon. Patty Hajdu on aspects of this ‘genderful’ #Budget2018 in the serene environment of the Garden of Contemplation at Winnipeg’s Human Rights Museum. So apt. Our voices are being heard. @WECManitoba @WEOCanada @PattyHajdu
