All the praise heaped upon the hardworking ⁦⁦@fatmacys⁩ team for their stunning new mission-driven restaurant Sohaila couldn’t be more deserved, so proud of you Doug Rolle ❤️ and your food ROCKS! https://t.co/o56YWuj2Uq

Pleased family visits have resumed to @Alaa but still consular access for UK officials hasn’t been granted. Good to get an update from @Monasosh and @sana2 as we continue to work constructively with Egyptian authorities to secure @Alaa ‘s release to unite him with his family.

It’s day 53 of Alaa Abd El-Fattah’s hunger strike, a pro-democracy activist and British citizen who’s spent 8 out of the last 10 years in prison and sentenced to 5 more for sharing a Facebook post. UK MPs describe his Egyptian prison conditions as “inhumane” @trussliz

[Tom Rayner @Tom_Rayner]

NEW: MPs and Peers urge @trussliz to do more to secure the release of Alaa Abd El-Fattah - a British-Egyptian political prisoner currently on hunger strike in Egypt
