This is just the beginning

I wish someone had warned me that the NHS might be in a difficult state if the Tories got in.

Priti Patel said it was a “slur” when I told her she lacked compassion, and called for me withdraw it.

I didn't and I won't: I was already being too polite.

I could say extending right Right to Buy to Housing Associations is like pouring gasoline on the bonfire that is our housing system. But deregulation, funding cuts, grant cuts, welfare cuts & monetary policy (QE) already did that. Its like lobbing dynamite into a burning building

Massive thank you to @SholaMos1 for coming to a great conversation to launch the paperback of #TheNewAgeOfEmpire ✊🏿 Blessings to everyone at #BlackStudiesBCU for making it happen 🙏🏿

This is twice in as many months that stories like this are being released after the events surrounding Child Q. The fact that 2 girls both teenagers had to encounter this is beyond sickening

[Zarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana]

BP and Shell made £20,000,000,000 in profit last year. That's expected to double this year.

But Tory MPs just voted down plans to use a windfall tax on these companies to slash energy bills.

They're choosing to squeeze your living standards, not the profits of the super-rich.

Not sure what food items to donate? Our shopping list can help ⬇️

Donations can be left at our supermarket collection points or dropped down to our warehouse at The Halo Centre, CV3 2NT

Perhaps one of the most sickening stories I’ve came across

[Mr WeThnk @We_ThnkCEO]

So, you traumatise, criminalise & adultify an INNOCENT CHILD and all they get is an apology?

The safeguarding report states the incident was unjustified & racism was "likely" to have been a factor & all you offer is an apology? That’s not enough.

Disgusting #ChildQ

[ellā @ella_camo]

There’s a section of black people that socially mobilise themselves and decide to remove themselves from anything associated with ‘blackness’ because they’ve internalised ‘blackness’ as being synonymous with lack/failure.

It’s a trauma response.

🚨 This Morning I met with the Secretary of State for Housing - Michael Gove to discuss Housing and how lives are being put at risk.

After both agreeing things need to change, I will be going back to meet him and his team again to propose and work on how to fix this 🙏🏽

[Kehinde Andrews @kehinde_andrews]

Just to clarify I've only ever committed to being Black... Not British ✊🏿. Looking forward to the show coming on Wed 23rd and Thurs 24th Feb 9pm on @bbc 2 and showcasing a Black radical viewpoint

[Zarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana]

I'm focused on doing everything I can to improve the lives of people in Coventry, which is why this morning I volunteered at Coventry Foodbank, helping put together food parcels for people struggling in our city.

As always, thank you to the amazing people at @Cov_Foodbank 💖

I am so proud to represent Coventry South and its wonderful people. Today I was out and about as usual, briefly stopping by at the community test centre between constituency meetings. Huge thanks to the staff for all their hard work! 😊

The cost of living crisis isn't inevitable. It's not some natural disaster. It's Tory class war:
