THANK YOU! Love, Councillor Hart :)

Dear Mark Rowley, institutional racism is when it’s protocol for your organisation to “tool up” when on duty at Black led events but not for right-wing marches.

Black people have been over-policed and under-protected for too long.

The @metpoliceuk is so far from fit for purpose it’s terrifying.

The heavy-handed and totally disproportionate treatment this woman received (in front of her distressed and bewildered young son) was for suspected bus fare evasion, to the tune of £1.75

@SarabajayaKumar thank you for drawing everyone’s attention to the barriers that are preventing women of colour with disabilities from participating in politics - not enough is being done across political parties to address this issue

Education is vital in the understanding of those that suffered but retained dignity. #LGBTQIA+ people have a history, know your past. See below⬇️🏳️‍🌈⬇️

Thanks for meeting us this morning @Douglas4Moray and @AJABurnett. Great to discuss our call for more accountability via a Commissioner for autistic people, and the need to reduce diagnosis waiting times so folk can get the support they need. @AutismScotland @RobHoll

You know why we need #PrideMonth ? It's because people still feel it's OK to be disgusted and angry when you mention #Pride . That in turn makes people feel ashamed / scared / guilty to talk about #LGBTQ rights, which makes it a societal norm to feel shame about being #Queer ...

Whether it’s at home, at work or on the street, every LGBTQ+ person deserves to be safe and to feel safe. 💜 #TakePride

This #PrideMonth, join us if you think everyone should be safe from harassment and abuse, whoever and wherever they are ➡️ https://t.co/lpbtSRRkuq

Tory ideology has us trapped in an economic death spiral. Today @RishiSunak is talking about tax cuts.

Now? When the childcare system is on the brink of collapse.

Now? When essential public services (like social care) need investment more than ever?

[Former WEP LGBTQI+ Caucus @WEPLGBTQI]

@JayneOzanne We think many are worried about being seen as becoming political. Church leaders across the world from many religions are seen as a moral barometer, that's the power they have. WE are pleased to hear about the compassionate support and would like to see more 'calling this out'.
