If we make enough noise, they’ll make a u-turn. That’s what this government does. If you want NHS staff to be properly protected with FFP3 masks, RT 🚨💙

Wow!! They weren’t “the heart” of the economy in your eyes the last 19 months you left so many #ExcludedUK members with such disparity of support @RishiSunak !! Unbelievable!! Lives and livelihoods lost and you are now gaslighting the public that you care!! Shameful and deluded!
Family businesses are the heart of our economy, and our communities. That’s why I’m celebrating the UK's first @FamilyBizWeek led by @IFB_uk & @Natwestbusiness. #FamilyBizFriday is all about recognising the enormous contribution the family business sector makes to our economy.

I defy anyone to look at @marcdavenant's extraordinary photo of Richard Ratcliffe outside the Foreign Office today - day 18 of his hunger strike - and not be filled with rage & sadness. Where are you, @borisjohnson? How dare you fail to stop this? @FreeNazanin #FreeNazanin

For clarity, this is *not* a plea to “protect the NHS”. That govt slogan always was unhelpful & misleading. This is about the NHS not becoming so overwhelmed with Covid that we can’t care for cancer, heart disease, surgical & all the other patients. PLEASE help us help you 🙏
On behalf of our members in England, we’re calling on @BorisJohnson to enact ‘Plan B’ of the Government’s winter strategy without delay to help keep people well and avoid the NHS becoming overwhelmed this winter. nhsconfed.org/news/enact-pla… 1/8

I want to see simple, low key measures like mandatory masks, home working and social distancing brought back ASAP to (a) protect society’s vulnerable members from Covid & (b) help the NHS carry on caring for all our non-Covid patients. Please RT if you do too.

Just spoke to my constituent Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe’s husband Richard. Nazanin has lost her latest appeal and her sentence of 1 year plus 1 year travel ban is upheld with no court hearing. She could now be returned to prison at any time. The PM must act now to #FreeNazanin

Are you serious?!?!!! You completely exclude over 3 million taxpayers including the self-employed and Ltd company directors for over 18 months and come out with this?!? Try putting things right for #ExcludedUK members and then come back and talk to us! Unbelievable!!!
"I want this country to be a nation of entrepreneurs. In a hyper-competitive world, how do we create the conditions for the UK to be the best economy to start, grow and invest in high-growth companies?" Great to get started at #TreasuryConnect. gov.uk/government/news/uk-te…

We at WFTV will continue to stand with more than 3 million freelancers have not been eligible for the government financial schemes and are facing financial hardship as a result @RishiSunak #GapsInSupport

Cutting Universal Credit will hurt the poorest in our society, simply a heartless and callous policy. More cruelty from a man who excluded millions of self-employed people from any help whatsoever
Increasing job opportunities, not universal credit is the "right way" to help people, says Chancellor Rishi Sunak, adding that those on the "lowest incomes have received the most support from this government" over the last eighteen months. trib.al/4jbocrp

2/2 I hope we can retrain people quickly to match the required skills. With Furlough ending in 2 weeks 150,000 more people are expected to be made redundant but it takes time to become a plasterer if you’ve been running a restaurant.
Turns out that despite “extensive discussions” by @DCMS precisely nothing has changed to help UK musicians needing permit/visa-free EU touring. Shameful of @OliverDowden to seek to mislead beleaguered UK musicians. Task for his dept is to sort the problem which remains unchanged.
This is very encouraging! I look forward to examining the details. All credit to @WeAreTheMU @ISM_music @SirSimonRattle @ukmusic @eltonofficial & everyone who’s campaigning for musicians visa free EU touring

Gov's reasons for denying 3M taxpayers any support for 16 mths when they can't work. 1) "Need to target support where it needed most" 2) "Need to support ppl on lowest incomes" And that's it. Would anyone like to comment on this? #ExcludedUK #ExcludedUnity

At the start of the pandemic, the Prime Minister and Chancellor promised that no one would be left behind. But they've let nearly four million taxpayers go without a penny in financial support. Tomorrow, join the #ExcludedUnity rally in Liverpool.

The graphic says it all. 👉 500 days without support for #ForgottenLtd 👉 500 days without parity for small business owners 👉 500 days without solutions from @hmtreasury 👉 500 days of @RishiSunak stubbornness 500 missed chances for @Conservatives to help. #GapsInsupport
