This is your Health Secretary claiming he’s changing the law to allow nurses and pharmacists to administer flu jabs

But the truth is both roles have been doing exactly that for years and years

Please RT if you think he should’ve known that already

@spikedonline @marilynstowe Excellent example of defensive white privilege.

Seems to me that the “All Lives Matter” line is being trotted out as a not so subtle STFU message to #BlackLivesMatter protestors.

Are there any vile depths this man will not plumb...

"Hopefully George [Floyd] is looking down right now and saying this is a great thing that's happening for our country. This is a great day for him. It's a great day for everybody." — U.S. President Donald Trump. https://t.co/RahLx4yMpd

Given that there is now evidence of repeated breaches, which Cummings contests, there is a possibility of a criminal prosecution.

The Attorney General, as head of the CPS, should delete this tweet and apologise for politicising and prejudging prospective legal proceedings.

[Alan Larkin @DivorceFT]

@topfamilylawyer @marilynstowe @pjm1kbw The optics are really unfortunate. We can all see the muppets increasingly ignoring the guidance - they will look at Cummings and think “If it’s good enough for him...”

[Alan Larkin @DivorceFT]

@marilynstowe @topfamilylawyer @pjm1kbw I would respectfully suggest the issue is whether questions can be asked of those ‘in power’ by the media. The very liberty not enjoyed in China.

We’re all getting used to living and working in lockdown.

What technology have you found most helpful during this time and why?

WTF? Who had the brass neck to include “... global, outward-looking, free-trading Britain” in this press release? Anyway, if legal services are so great why won’t you fund #legalaid at home? Are you waiting for a Brexit dividend?

Much of the criticism in this piece of lack of diversity, relevant legal education and hackathons holds good for UK but technology is no magic wand. It shd supplement boots on the ground and any progress will come from plural sources. https://t.co/z6SC4bHeMm

Answering research questions for Legal Services Board (LSB). They missed one so let me help out:

“Does the LSB’s unwillingness to address policy failure in the form of legal aid cuts and the growth of litigants in person undermine its role as champion of the legal consumer?”

Heard this fee paying school head on #r4today attacking ‘entitlement’. My cat, though half asleep, purred at such a delicious example of #dramaticIrony. Guessing this chap not head of English. https://t.co/xjUch2rDBZ

The fight for women's equality has always been about breaking rules. So I'm celebrating 100 years of suffrage by ignoring No Photographs sign in my favourite place in Parliament where Emily Wilding Davison hid for 1911 census

Let's never stop the rule breaking 💪
