This bold action from the Scottish Govt will support thousands of households during this national crisis.

I'll continue to call on the UK Govt to grant me the power to freeze rents in our capital. Londoners face record rents at the worst possible time. https://t.co/kFBRR1mbWP

In Pakistan, climate change is not a threat- it's a lived reality. 33 million affected by the devastating floods. Over 1000 people killed and 200k+ homes destroyed. Pakistan produces less than 1% of global carbon emissions but it's disproportionately affected by global warming.

We're taking a summer pause so if we're a little quiet in August, tiptoe gently passed that hammock, as we may be snoozing in the shade.

Our best wishes to you all for a restful holiday season.

I need to find out what would genuinely happen if the student debt of everyone post 2012 was decreased back from the £9k to £3k. Like would the country go up in flames? Would livelihoods be ruined? Because I’m this 👌🏼 close to starting a petition
