@LlamaLout @bbcquestiontime @SuellaBraverman We also need something faster than that. How about supporting @Techfugees to do this for a lot less, and a lot quicker?

@bbcquestiontime I'd like a dating-style app to link offers of accommodation and refugees in need.
Hosts and guests could swipe left or right to match the group size and offered space together with other elements, like pets, garden, children and jobs in the area.
Who can write the software?

Please sign the Government website petition https://t.co/fhcyuFqVpw We should follow the #EU example.

Delta Farce: How Boris Johnson's incompetent handling of the new variant extended lockdown

[Brexit Bin 🇪🇺🇬🇧🇩🇪🕊🇺🇦 #BrexitHasFailed @BrexitBin]

Hmm ... 🤔
So the government that now wants to increase our number of nuclear warheads because "Russia is such a threat" ... is the same one that didn't feel it necessary to investigate any claims of Russian interference into the referendum & elections that put it into power.

Many people didn't meet up last Christmas, even tho #BorisJohnson said ok to, but some people in the UK did. The graph shows how UK #COVID19 deaths rose compared to EU nations.
The data was the same. Johnson made the wrong decision.
If we'd all met up it'd have been far worse!

The result of Boris Johnson's Conservatives relaxing Covid restrictions over Christmas: thousands of families had their last Christmas together

Hi!👋
I’m Julia, and I’m the Chief Exec of @EveryDoctorUK. We run a network of 40,000 NHS staff. Due to dodgy PPE which put staff+patients at risk, we’re taking the government to court along with @GoodLawProject 👩‍⚖️ 👨🏾‍⚕️

🌟We’re in court today🌟

Please RT+we’ll update everyone👍

A new Aldi store will go in the field. The pavement is too narrow. Widening it destroys the hedge.
Local people have petitioned for a new path to go on the inside of the hedge: quieter, safer, saves #biodiversity.
Aldi have said 'No'. So much for their environmental credentials!

@LaylaMoran What need to come up are:
What changes are needed to track & trace if the number of infectious but asymptomatic people is on the rise due to vaccination?
If vaccination has to be annual, should we find out if people's ability to resist @Covid19 can be increased in other ways?

@sbattrawden @DerbyLibDems Please get them to look into #VitaminD.
PHE and NICE advice is weak. Recommended doses low and deficiency endemic, particularly in at risk groups.
Many northern countries supplement food, but even spreads haven't needed it adding for the last few years.

@Cpass12David If you've not yet signed to say we want to Rejoin, please do.
You know it's the only sensible thing to do, and many people on both sides of the channel would rejoice: https://t.co/pWcYaBSGJr

Do you think it's wrong that the Tories are charging ahead with their "Brexit festival", costing £120m when we're being destroyed by a pandemic?

Do you think that money should instead go to carers, freelance artists or anyone who needs financial support?

Told today of someone who caught Covid from his grandchild on Christmas Day. He became very unwell and went into hospital, where he died. When his wife heard, she had a stroke, and is now in hospital recovering.
Why, oh why, did #BorisJohnson say people could mix at Xmas?

The first picture is the paid for delivery leaflets that arrived on my doorstep this morning.
This is both safe and essential according to the govt.
Second is the leaflet I’m not allowed to deliver because it’s a “covid” risk. More like a “Tories lose election risk”

The Conservatives are banning political parties from delivering leaflets on Monday but will still allow any other organisation to deliver leaflets. What are they worried about?

@globalhlthtwit @Derby4Europe And does Priti Patel still support a Prime Minister who is visiting different parts of the country nearly every day for photo-ops while the rest of us stay at home?
