Many #ExcludedUK community worked in the creative or hospitality industries. Abandoned by Tory & @UKLabour government.
@Keir_Starmer will you now recognise and meet with the @ExcludedUK@ExcludedFighter?
Hard working people want to be heard.
37 completed suicides. #PMQs
@wendychambLD Hi Wendy.
After all of your tenacious support for the #ExcludedUK in the Covid years, and with many @LibDems backing this shameful injustice inc @timfarron & @MP4Stratford, can you pressure Labour to now commit to giving these Victims financial redress.
https://t.co/vhHoYTddvE
@RLong_Bailey Many of the #ExcludedUK have also had their retirements ruined due to depleted life savings after being hung out to dry with £0 incomes and support, and many our also #WaspiWomen, so please urge a @UKLabour Minister to start negotiations with @ExcludedUK.
https://t.co/6FJAbRhsqs
Hi @KevinStewartSNP.
After all of the support shown by hundreds of cross-party MP'S in the Pandemic, the #ExcludedUK on-going plight is now ignored, so please be our voices again by calling on Labour to commit to financial redress
@ExcludedUK@theSNP
https://t.co/mvZ9htt310
Just in case you do not get to read the emails and forms we have completed to try and contact you @Keir_Starmer@RachelReevesMP ... please note that Head of ExcludedUK, Jennifer Griffiths, has sent you several communications...
We would politely request that you provide some reassurance to our members that you will be mindful of those still struggling when making decisions going forward.
#ExcludedUK are fully aware that you have tough decisions to make, and felt encouraged to hear you will “do politics differently” and that the “government has a mindset of serving” as we are all ready for honest and fair treatment, but today's PM press call left members very nervous and have expressed deep concerns.
Please make amends for the previous governments disgusting treatment of +3 million UK Taxpayers and ensure we do not fall down a deeper hole.
DID YOU GET LITTLE OR NO FINANCIAL SUPPORT DURING COVID?
Were you excluded from fair and equal Covid-19 financial support?
If so, join some of the other 3.8 million UK taxpayers who were, as we campaign for this scandal to be put right.. https://t.co/1GoANVaqj9

YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO SHAME SUNAK!! HERE ARE JUST 4 OF THE PROMISES YOU MADE AND BROKE @RishiSunak LEAVING 3.8 MILLION UK TAXPAYERS WITH LITTLE OR NO COVID-19 FINANCIAL SUPPORT!
How were these people supposed to live on zero income when you had forbidden them from working or opening their businesses?!?
How were their children meant to cope when their parents cried in despair, not knowing which way to turn?!?
At least 37 suicides as a result.... did one have to be one of your family or friends before people came before politics?!?
Before you preach to @RachelReevesMP@Keir_Starmer or any others, just check your own record, look in the mirror and see if you can honestly say that you did your job properly during the pandemic! Your cronies and family think you did a great job, as they are now busy counting all the profits they made.. but you failed the people who voted you in... all because "they probably didn't vote conservative anyway"!

FRAUD IS ILLEGAL... SO THE NEW COVID FRAUD COMMISSIONER MUST SHARE THEIR FINDINGS WITH THE CPS SO THE REAL FRAUDSTERS ARE MADE TO PAY!
Thank you to @Philmoorhouse76 for, yet again, highlighting the plight of the 3.8 million UK taxpayers who were excluded from fair and equal Covid-19 financial support. @RishiSunak even had the cheek to call us fraudsters, whilst watching his own party make millions of pounds that could have supported families struggling to survive as they were told they were not allowed to work/open their businesses.

Following the announcement about the Covid Corruption commissioner, and 3.8 million #ExcludedUK left out to dry after being cut adrift by the Tories, we look forward to meeting you imminently @RachelReevesMP to discuss now backdated support.
@ExcludedUK
https://t.co/qZg6EuDrP2
After 4 years of the #ExcludedUK being left to rot due to being called fraudsters, we look forward to working with yourself @lukejcr and @RachelReevesMP@UKLabour to give them the support that they were promised by Rishi Sunak in March 2020.
@ExcludedUK
https://t.co/4Gx2xLqu0c
From the studio to the stage, playing field to the podium - this Government will put opportunities in our creative industries back into every village, town and city across the country
Today I am beginning the process to appoint a Covid Corruption Commissioner to get back what is owed to the British people.
The work of change has begun. https://t.co/JicjTRgucM
Proud to join the record-breaking cohort of Labour women MPs yesterday, as part of a Labour Government with equal representation in Cabinet.
That’s real change for women - and we’re getting on with delivering more of it every single day.
Is conspiring to stop the traffic, in the cause of raising alarm about climate change, deserving of custodial sentences of five and four years - when so many crimes of violence and thefts go unprosecuted and our prisons have run out of capacity? Does anyone think these sentences do credit to our judicial system? I am bemused
"THIS CANNOT BE ALLOWED TO HAPPEN AGAIN"
(Baroness Heather Hallett, Chair of the UK Covid-19 Inquiry, 18/07/2024)
#ExcludedUK listened to the the Chair of the UK Covid-19 Inquiry, Baroness Heather Hallett, present the findings of the first module, the investigation into the nation’s resilience and preparedness for the pandemic.
Baroness Hallett highlighted that the @Conservatives "government's sole pandemic strategy from 2011 was outdated and lacked adaptability. It was never, in fact, properly tested. The UK government neither applied it, nor adapted it, and the doctrine that underpinned it was ultimately abandoned, as was the 2011 strategy itself"
Baroness Hallett went on to say "I have no hesitation in concluding that the processes, planning and policy of the Civil contingency structures across the United Kingdom, failed the citizens of all four nations".... "This cannot be allowed to happen again"
Expert evidence suggests that another pandemic is likely in the near to medium future and it is therefore crucial that @Keir_Starmer@RachelReevesMP@UKLabour and the entire government, come together to ensure that every single person in the UK is supported. We just cannot have a repeat of the last pandemic where 3.8 million UK taxpayers are excluded from parity of pandemic support.

A MASSIVE GAMBLE.... OUR OWN TV DRAMA PILOT!!!
#ExcludedUK have tried everything to get our story out to the world in anyway, shape or form and, so far, nobody has been willing to feature us in a major way...well, not enough for the general public to sit up and take us seriously..
We had a glimmer of hope with some media interest following ITV's Mr Bates vs The Post Office drama, but all the interviews came to nothing, meaning our story still didn't make the main news, let alone the TV.
One reason that broadcasters might be a bit shy is that, despite it being the UK's most-watched TV show of the year so far, Mr Bates vs The Post Office made ITV a loss of about £1m! So we thought this would put everyone off doing another drama, particularly on such a sensitive topic where people have taken their own lives...
Then we were approached by a TV production company.....
......we had several meetings.....
.......then we were sent the attached trailer ....
..........when we stopped crying...
.......we decided that we would back the production company....
........please watch the trailer and give us your reactions..
This is where Eastenders would put the Duff-Duffs....
So, now you have composed yourselves...
ExcludedUK will promote the crowd funder for this TV pilot to see if we can raise enough money to make the pilot episode (we are hoping to make at least two more episodes once the pilot episode is sold).
All the jobs required to create the pilot episode will be offered to ExcludedUK members first (details to follow soon).
PLEASE NOTE: We have a duty of care to make it clear to members that, like our own fund, you must not donate anything you cannot afford, we just ask you forward the details of the crowd funder to all your contacts and share on social media.
We also want to make it explicitly clear that this is a gamble as nothing can be guaranteed. If you cannot afford to donate and risk not getting a return, please do not donate.
The production company have signed a contract to say that if there are excess donations after the pilot is filmed, these donations will be transferred into the ExcludedUK fund. Also, if the fundraiser fails to attract enough donations, after costs, whatever is raised will be transferred into the ExcludedUK fund.
So... here is the link you need to share....
https://t.co/R9508j3MAs…
Let's hope someone thinks this is a good idea....
Lots of love
Jennifer and the ExcludedUK Team x

Watching all the politicians, from different parties, now the polls have closed, being honest, transparent, and considered. Why oh why do they feel they can't be like that the rest of the time.
