Making noise on behalf of workers being exploited by their employers during the #Covid19 crisis in UK. Fighting against #ProfitsBeforePeople. #StayAtHome ๐
@MattHancock BF got selected for swab test - recieved last week. Followed instructions & booked courier before taking it. Took test 7am Sunday morning, it's still in fridge waiting for collection. Rebooked twice, still no show. Now he has symptoms. Your couriers are an utter joke!! ๐

There is progress, and light at end of tunnel. My concern about โpast the peakโ is that it could imply weโre past the point of danger. Weโre not - progress is fragile and if we ease up it will be reversed. So we need to encourage maximum compliance with current restrictions.
My employer has always considered what we do to be life or death, and pile the pressure on because of this. Now in lockdown, they seem to believe this to be true x1000. We're not essential and definitely not life or death. Really starting to question how I spend 40hrs a week ๐
Hey @BBCRadio2 can me and my colleagues get a shout out for the totally non-essential work we're being forced to continue with in the office, please? ๐
My uncle died over the weekend. His wife was with him, but daughters were unable to see him at the end due to a mix of self-isolation and visitor restrictions. Please please people, take this seriously and #StayHome Imagine not being able to say goodbye to your parent #COVID19
I'm a Nurse.
I was born in Spain but I came to UK 20 years ago. โ๏ธ
Since then I've been working in our beloved NHS. ๐ฅ
During this #COVID19Pandemic
I've gone back to the frontline to help. ๐ช

Please during #EasterWeekend stay at home! ๐
@10DowningStreet Someone tell that to my neighbours. One has her parents round to lay turf and a patio, as well as her ex partner visiting throughout the week to see the kids. Other one has her childrens' dad over every couple of days. They never stay. Either stay away or stay entirely!
WATCH: inside an intensive care unit as medics treat patients with covid-19 who are critically ill. Everyone should watch this report from @BBCFergusWalsh

@vicderbyshire@bbcnews#bbcyourquestions Divorced parents: should the fathers be travelling to and from the mothers' homes many timea during the week? I get that they may be helping with childcare, but aren't they just increasing the risk of unknowingly transmitting the virus?
@BorisJohnson Before you buy a product online please think about whether you really need it right now. There are thousands of us warehouse workers still going to work while our bosses stay safe at home. They have already chosen profits over our lives. We are scared
#warehouseworkersmatter
With the nicer weather this weekend you may be more tempted to spend some time in the park or near the beach.
Please don't.
There will plenty of sunny days to enjoy in the summer if we keep following the rules.
Are a few sunny days now worth an August in lockdown?
@JeremyVineOn5@theJeremyVine How can we bring greedy employers to account? Many are exploiting the "online retail is encouraged" loophole and putting their staff in danger by providing no PPE or ability to follow safe distancing guidelines. It's disgraceful! #PeopleOverProfits
Why are shopping channels still allowed to broadcast live shows? They are #notessential and are putting their production and warehouse staff at risk by forcing them into work #ProfitsOverPeople#AskRishi
Had another convo thru window with local driver I've mentioned before. He spoke with work about his concerns -was told despite being high risk, if he followed gov shielding advice he would receive zero pay. Boss hasn't looked or spoken to him since. Ridiculous #ProfitsOverPeople
@SimplySimoom @michaelgove Same! None of them respond to anything, and if they ever do it's always to the praise or the stupid questions like "What's your working from home set up?" ๐ So frustrating.
So @michaelgove has just invited everyone to get in touch with him should we feel employers are acting irresponsibly. I'll be doing just that and I urge everyone to do it too, flood his inbox! #covid19UK#ProfitsOverPeople#WealthBeforeHealth
