Thanks to the @WMNetwork 58 bus driver who, after realising the journey would take me too long, stopped the bus so he could tell me a quicker route
Today is going to be very hard. I’m furious that part of my citizenship is being taken from me, and that so many of the protections and opportunities I had won’t be extended to future generations

Doesn't matter how long it takes. Doesn't matter what it requires. Those who understand the severity of this mistake won't rest until it is undone.

Really sad and angry to see that the Tories (and of course, the new MP for Birmingham Northfield) have voted against protecting child refugees post-Brexit. This is a move that will lead to more deaths & suffering. Those MPs that voted against the bill should be ashamed.
