🚨 @keirstarmer I have an urgent agenda item for your discussion with Donald Trump tomorrow: stop genocide in #Sudan. 1 million refugees, mostly women & children are running out of food. And many could die unless global leaders do something about it. #Darfur via @Avaaz

As the great-great granddaughter of Joseph Bazalgette who rid the Thames of its Great Stink, i'm appalled at what water companies are doing and I just signed @RiverActionUK's petition calling on political leaders to rescue our rivers and freshwaters to health.

#MattHancock claims that there were never shortages of PPE. My daughter worked in a hospital in March without mask or scrubs. I shouldn't think she was the only one!
So Starmer thinks the Patel-Johnson thing wouldn’t happen in any other workplace? I can certainly remember one where exactly the same thing happened - ie the person who bullied me persuaded his manager to forget about it! I bet that happens in load of places.
I just signed a @STWUK petition supporting Ahmed Al-Babati, a British soldier who is taking a stand of conscience against the UK Government's role in the war on #Yemen, via its arms sales to Saudi Arabia. Sign here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/… #YemenCantWait #StopArmingSaudi
