An NHS doctor sent me this message last night after the press conference - the NHS is in *real* trouble.

The problem is that hospital staff can face the sack if they talk to media without going through formal press office.

Just cos they can't speak, don't think it's not bad!

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

Wow.

42,302 new Covid cases today - the highest number since 15th Jan.

Yet only 52% of the population is fully vaccinated.

Which makes the government’s stance staggeringly weak and irresponsible.

If a fan racially abuses a player in a stadium, they’re banned from attending games.

Those who racially abuse online shouldn’t be treated any differently.

Southgate showed us a new England. But the old one hasn’t gone away

We win together and we lose together. No ifs or buts. The whole country should stand firm behind every player in this heroic team 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Instead of showing me your diversity statement, show me your hiring data, your discrimination claim stats, your salary tables, your retention numbers, your diversity policies, and your leaders’ public actions against racism.

End performative allyship.

My father wasn’t assassinated because of his dream.

He was assassinated because of his voice and work, which was eradicating the “Triple Evils”: Racism, Militarism, Poverty.

Those who unrepentantly benefited from these evils railed against their eradication.

They still do.

It seems like yesterday. But it is thirty four years today since I and my colleagues in that first group of black Labour MPs were elected. Onwards and upwards✊🏾

A Black locksmith filmed his encounter with several armed police officers who confronted him as he was changing a lock in what he said was a predominantly white neighborhood. The video, first shared to TikTok on May 23, has been viewed over 1 million times

You are WORTHY 💛

George Floyd looked like me, he could have been me.

That’s why his death reverberated around the world.

People said: none of us can breathe when we still face the issues of structural racism in our lives every day.

If the chancellor, @RishiSunak, has nothing to hide he should publish all records of text messages, calls and other informal meetings connected to tax rules and Covid support schemes. This is vital to restore public trust.

[David Lammy @DavidLammy]

Whether Dominic Cummings is lying or Boris Johnson is lying, who cares?

What matters is the scandal of sleaze at the heart of Number 10 these texts have helped expose.

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

Racism is not a difference of opinion.

@VeleisaP Such an impact, I loved her story

[David Olusoga @DavidOlusoga]

The classic way to prove there is no racism in Britain. Tell black people if they don't like it go and live somewhere else.

[Viola Davis @violadavis]

Where's the lie? 🧐✊🏿👊🏿
