Husband to one, Dad to two and dairy free. Love running where I can see things that are green. All views my own.

One of the best things about spending time with kids is normally their sense of boundless possibility, as if it’s only a matter of time before they become an astronaut or inventor or explorer. That these kids already know the odds are against them shames us all. 💔#Dispatches

I believe the world would be a better place if we just listened to Courtney more. #dispatches #CourtneyforPM

[Brian Harris @harrisimo]

I'm one of the comfortably off in Cambridge. I would happily pay more in taxes specifically to properly fund our welfare system. Not because I'm particularly charitable. But because I want to live in a fair, equitable, compassionate and decent society. #dispatches

[MrAdamDixon @Mr_Adam_D]

A woman dedicates her life to caring for her terminally ill daughter and is left impoverished and reliant on foodbanks by the cost of her funeral. As a rich nation, is this how we care for the vulnerable in our society? #Dispatches

[Channel 4 Dispatches @C4Dispatches]

8 year old Courtney and her family live off £5 a day - they rely on a food bank to eat and wear coats to bed when there's no money for heating.

This is Britain today, where more than 4 million children are growing up in poverty.

If you’re not watching Dispatches, “Growing Up Poor: Britain’s Breadline Kids” on Channel 4 now, switch it on now. Heartbreaking but so, so important. @C4Dispatches

[MrAdamDixon @Mr_Adam_D]

Watching 'Growing Up Poor: Britain's Breadline kids' on C4; listening to the positivity and wisdom of the children is inspiring but heart breaking. How are we allowing this to happen?

Cars are killing us. Within 10 years, we must phase them out
