Felt powerful hearing Mac's words in parliament - 'this is the battle that we're fighting... because they feel their children are safe' - doors away from the empty green benches that we see in the film. Massive thanks to @helenhayes_ and @SamTarry - two MPs that do care.

[Sam Tarry @SamTarry]

Was amazing to help host a powerful documentary in Parliament tonight with @helenhayes_on made by @THEAliceRussell ‘If the Streets Were on Fire’ a about 'Bike Stormz', a popular youth-led protest movement against youth violence.
