Vitally important journalism but almost impossible to watch. @AlexCrawfordSky finds families in Afghanistan selling their kidneys to survive. Some parents are resorting to selling their own children. Incomprehensibly horrific
Best article I’ve read on this - we need “a joined-up strategy to tackle gender-based violence, which starts in primary schools and permeates every aspect of society from online platforms to the criminal justice system.” #AshlingMurphyRIP

While @BorisJohnson planned which 100 people he was going to invite to his boozy garden party, I was left painfully ‘deciding’ which 10 of my closest family members were able to attend my 16 year old daughter’s ‘graveside’ funeral! No words 😔💔 #Disgraceful#DowningStreetParties
So chuffed to be Charity partner for @MaskedSingerUK and that they’re supporting our #BehindTheMask campaign to encourage parents to tell it how it is & ask for help if they need it. @homestartuk Parenting is as difficult as it is rewarding 🥰
What thoroughly weasel words these are.
We don't "feel" overwhelmed. Our feelings are irrelevant. The facts are clear that we *are* being overwhelmed. We don't have the doctors, nurses, beds, or resources to cope.
As the PM knew we wouldn't. Because we warned him, over & over.
Covid dealt a strong hand to those who exploit children. Children dropping off the radar of schools and social services provides a golden opportunity for gangs and criminals. Govt must give schools the support they need so we don’t repeat previous mistakes https://t.co/AptyXHYTxN
@DrRaymondCoffer@AddisonLeeCabs That’s adorable. I’m safe at my friends house. The point is if I’ve planned to be safe (which no-one should have to do )they should honour it x
Booked and pre-paid for my @AddisonLeeCabs cab to pick me up safely tonight but an hour later they aren’t here and no way to contact them. Are they not learning about how women feel getting home - especially on a night like tonight?
Congratulations @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris on your well-deserved win.
London looks forward to working with you — it's time to get back to building bridges, not walls. 🇺🇸 🇬🇧
@Stayathomemum6 What the f-*k were they thinking. Gave the tories a day or two out of the news for doing a catastrophic job in general and divides The Labour Party 😩
