The Chancellor took a step in the right direction
But, bluntly, there's still a long way to go

Really pleased to confirm that we will be hosting a joint #BromfordandHodgeHill and #WardEnd ward forum tomorrow evening with a live Q&A for residents.

Just last week we had another RTA. If it had happened a few minutes before it would’ve resulted in serious injury or death.
We’ve had two people killed in the last few years, and must do more to help save lives on this road.#BromfordandHodgeHill

So it begins....There are 31 Muslims living in Atherstone according to the census 2011.

It seems that scapegoating Muslims is the norm for the catalogue of failures of the Tory government in controlling #COVID19.

From tomorrow morning at 9am I’m leaving @Twitter for 48 hours to protest against their inaction on anti-Jewish racism.
I’m horrified at the abuse Jewish people suffer on here and I want to do something about it.
Please consider doing the same.
#NoSafeSpaceForJewHate
Despite the lifting of restrictions #COVID19 the threat is still real!!
Our friend Ikram Qureshi of Ikram Jewellers, Alum Rock died of #COVID19 this morning having been admitted to hospital last week.
انا لله وانا اليه راجعون
Please follow the @PHE_uk guidance at all times.
At the final St Wilfrids Community Centre Hodge Hill “pop up” food bank.
We’ve delivered and/or distributed around 2500 food parcels to isolated and. vulnerable residents in #BromfordandHodgeHill.
Thank you @TAWSociety @pakfoods and others who have donated🙌🏽.

I’m sickened that another Private Hire driver has been subject to vile racism and assaulted as passengers refuse to pay £8 fare.
That’s why I’m calling for @BhamCityCouncil to consult on fares being paid upfront, and the mandatory installation of CCTV.
https://t.co/3H6Z9gM7zU
I welcome the guidance.
@transportgovuk view is that CCTV can provide deterrence and investigative value.
The experiences of authorities that have mandated CCTV has been positive for both passengers and drivers @BhamCityCouncil@BCCLicensing

Really pleased that @liambyrnemp Shadow Mayor for the West Midlands has added the brilliant @CllrMYHussain to a #COVID19 inquiry affecting our BAME communities
Cllr Yaseen has worked tirelessly supporting families and has witnessed first hand the disproportionate impact on BAME.
I’m pleased that @LabourMuslims have launched the largest consultation looking at the experiences of @UKLabour Muslim members
I have completed the survey, and it only takes a few minutes. All Muslim members to complete to that was can assess the data to tackle the issues raised.
