The government's measures would leave five million self-employed and gig economy workers with just £94.25 a week sick pay.
This is simply not enough.
Those without a fixed wage must not be left to suffer.
Two advantages that Corbyn would have over Johnson in the coronavirus crisis.
(a) Corbyn would give a shit.
(b) Corbyn would have a clue what ordinary people are going through.

Piers Morgan trying to blame the Crown Prosecution Service for prosecuting Caroline Flack. I personally blame the CPS for not prosecuting Morgan and his other cohort of bullies and hackers.
As BAME Officer for London Young Labour, I utterly condemn Jess Phillips' overt racism. Our movement is broad, but there's no space for transphobia, anti-blackness, or the frankly weird levels of ignorant white feminism and self-obsession she exhibits.
When I went to vote on Thurs I was harassed outside the polling station. “You’re a terrorist lover” “you should be ashamed”
I had to walk a different way home in case the men followed me.
This is the cancer the Tories &media have created in this country.

When are the media and Tories gonna get sued for lying then?
Probably never.
People will lose their health and house and life.
And then 15 years later a channel 4 dispatches will come out on how fucked up this whole thing was and it'll trend on twitter for a day.

Many arguments about protecting “culture”, including that certain migrants are a threat to English “culture”, have long been about race.
Whatever happens next, veering into Blue Labour territory would mean throwing minorities and migrants under the bus.
Blue Labour are a sentence away from endorsing the Great Replacement conspiracy theory. Nah I'll pass thanks.
I'd rather be open and inclusive, than offering "cultural security" which is code for: a white Britain with women in the kitchen.
“There is no such thing as Corbynism. There is socialism. There is social justice.”
Jeremy Corbyn says he doesn’t think the election result would have “been any different” if a more centrist candidate was in charge of Labour - saying the issue that dominated was Brexit.
@mrjamesob Ffs James O'Brien...why do you always have to ruin your platform by being a bellend.
You just stood on stage for the rEmAiN aLlIaNcE show of shit with TONY FUCKING BLAIR.
Your opinion on Labour leaders is irrelevant if you'll share a stage with him.
