Visited Shree Swaminarayan Kingsbury Temple with @SadiqKhan today to see a very slick operation vaccinating over 1300 people a day! It’s first Hindu temple in Europe to become a COVID19 vaccination centre.
Power of our communities and the NHS! 💪🏽🙏🏽 @SGadiLondon@NHSEnglandLDN

We couldn’t be in the same location for #Pride & @ukblackpride this year, but we support our LGBTQ+ family together online and always
I am deeply saddened by the murder of two sisters in Wembley this month. My thoughts are with their family & friends at this difficult time. I urge anyone with information to come forward & help bring those responsible for these horrific crimes to justice. https://t.co/WoU9yF23Ou
The Windrush Generation deserves justice. The Government must commit to scrap the hostile environment and ensure equal access to advice and support. 1/2
