Out campaigning in Batley and Spen this afternoon for @kimleadbeater who is an outstanding candidate. In a world of division, she is all about bringing people together.

2. Also #dyslexia isn’t just about reading, especially for adults. No mention of how many parents scrape to pay for specialist tutoring beyond school because schools are not meeting their children’s needs #BDA

[margaret malpas @MargaretBDA]

Sad to see unbalanced article in The Guardian today, focussing on wasted opportunities via parents of #dyslexic children winning at tribunals. Surely, the issue is that all children deserve an education that ensures they can read. https://t.co/D4LyJgdozW

Another great #wordsfailme podcast with @ChrisRobshaw and @judemonkmcgowan love the chat, honest and open conversations about thriving with dyslexia. #podcast #dyslexia #disability

It is heartening but not the attitude they applied to the #Windrush generation. I fear this is another example of discrimination between rich and poor. We should have the same standards for all

Rules may be open to interpretation. But here are three words which must retain their precise meaning, for our society to function at all, for us to trust each other:
Integrity, honesty, responsibility.

[Jess Phillips @jessphillips]

In whatever form our parliament returns we must urgently as a global actor stand shoulder to shoulder with those in US who stand against hate & fear. We must move every muscle to ensure deaths, inequalities & brutality suffered by our black community is not ignored #icantbreathe

[Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer]

This is going to be a critical week for the country and a key test of the Government’s strategy.

I would urge everyone to do their bit in the national interest by following the public health advice and helping to save lives.

[Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer]

And third, a redoubling of efforts to ensure we have a fully functioning and effective test, track and trace system in place as soon as possible.

George Floyd must not become just another name. His shocking death should be the catalyst for change.

To build a better society we must stand together against racism and injustice.

Doctors take the knee outside @10DowningStreet to demand a better response from Government. Haven't seen this on the news!

Downing Street Daily Briefing

Government was unable to reduce Coronavirus threat level below 4. Boris Johnson signalled on Wednesday it was likely to be reduced to 3, but the Joint Biosecurity Unit did not agree to this yesterday.

Lockdown lifting goes ahead nevertheless

[Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer]

Thank you to every single person that has kept our country going through this crisis.

Your work and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

@Keir_Starmer No 10 saying they will not answer further questions about Mr Cummings trip to Durham. I didn’t think we lived in a totalitarian state. Please exert maximum scrutiny on this. He could have asked for police support if family at risk. Eye test story is ludicrous.

[margaret malpas @MargaretBDA]

2. #DominicCummings He could easily have asked for police support if he felt family were at risk. Test drive to Barnard Castle is nonsense. @bbclaurak @matthewweaver44 @BethRigby @huwbbc

[margaret malpas @MargaretBDA]

#DominicCummings @KayBurley @matthewweaver44 @bbclaurak @huwbbc 1. No 10 saying they won’t answer further questions about Cummings Durham trip. We do not live in a totalitarian state. Please ask questions at Presentation today.
