Good podcast on the lack of toilets in London quoting Age UK London's Lifting the Lid Report. Thanks to @ca_duffield for airing the issue on the @theLDNstandard podcast. Well worth a listen and what do you think should our public toilets be sold off?

Loved interviewing @EquidemOrg for yesterday's episode of The Standard @theLDNstandard on the dark truth behind Dubai.
With thousands of Londoners flocking to the Middle East city each year - what lies beneath the wealth and glamour?

Factcheck: Maternity pay has existed since 1911 & is essential for women to make informed, supported reproductive choices. It is also currently at a level where 71% of women worry 'a lot' about money during maternity leave and 35% of new mothers skip meals to afford to live.

If a woman doesn’t speak English, she is 25 times (!!!) more likely to die in childbirth in the UK. Horrific

Let’s be clear: Donald Trump would sign a national abortion ban and restrict access to contraception if given the chance.
That is what’s at stake in November.
We will stop him.

truly fantastic (and depressing) map from @the_londonspy of London rents for one bed flats. not being able to afford living alone just means so many of us end up living in nightmarish sharing scenarios. access the interactive link here: tuberents.thelondonspy.co.uk…

The whole Newsnight interview with @faizashaheen is worth watching. Just shockingly unfair, vindictive treatment for a woman who would have been an exceptional MP and has worked so hard for so long. xitter.cf/BBCNewsnight/status/17…
“Honestly I’m so shocked right now, to be treated this badly”
Faiza Shaheen, who was set to stand for Labour, describes hearing that her candidacy had been pulled over liking a series of Tweets which she claims Labour said would frustrate its campaign

Research shows the gender gap in TV is growing. But why?
In today's @guardiang2: One female director hides that she has a child; younger women face a 39% gender pay gap; and harassment is widespread. Insiders say it’s a wonder the television industry has any women left at all

FOSTER CARE IN CRISIS: Government allowances are not keeping up with the skyrocketing costs of fostering.

NEW: we don’t reflect enough on how severe the housing crisis is, and how it has completely broken the promise society made to young adults.
The situation is especially severe in the UK, where the last time house prices were this unaffordable was in ... 1876.

Worth noting that now the only high speed rail in Britain will only go as far north as Birmingham. Kent to Birmingham. Decades after countries like France and Japan completed high speed lines which cover their territories.
