Ofsted's annual report is out today. Media coverage will focus on education but the report is also candid about the failure of the 'market' in children's homes and foster care and the corrosive effect of privatisation. 🧵

Trying to get a parent an NHS dentist appointment, rung round lots of places & it's either a waiting list til Nov or not even accepting people until the end of the yr! Dental hygiene is crucial for physical & mental health but how are ppl supposed to get help without paying £60+

Through #participatorygrantmaking there is an opportunity to devolve power to local people and champion local leadership and agency, which ends up being just as valuable and impactful as funding some fantastic project ideas! #shiftingpower

"This is a really bleak day for many families up and down the country"

Conservative peer Baroness Philippa Stroud - who helped design universal credit - tells @JustinOnWeb that the end of the £20 uplift to the benefit will put 840,000 people into poverty

This morning, around 5.5 million families across the United Kingdom are waking up £1,040-a-year worse off due to the Prime Minister imposing the biggest ever overnight cut to social security. 🧵

[EmmaAnderson11 @EmmaAnderson11]

The #UniversalCredit cut will see 5.5 million families on low incomes lose out on £1,040 per year. It doesn't have to be this way. The Government has a choice, #KeepTheLifeline !!

- We must protect families
- We must strengthen social security
- We must #KeepTheLifeline

[Joseph Rowntree Foundation @jrf_uk]

"The uplift has been the difference in somebody's life between heating and eating."

The first ministers of Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales have called on @BorisJohnson to reverse the planned cut to #UniversalCredit.

We must #KeepTheLifeline
