@andyburnham Pls investigate why @Merton_Council won’t allow parents escaping DA to go on the housing register without a letter from the parent they are escaping from giving permission for the child to live with them. I tried to register 6yrs ago but couldn’t because of this dangerous rule 🤬
@andyburnham Oh please. My daughter & I are facing homelessness by Christmas because rental prices are out of control, the local housing allowances are out of touch with reality, & there is nowhere near enough social housing.
@KatieJWhite@jessphillips@metpoliceuk The one bit of action the Met did take? Reporting me to social services because I had boxes stacked in my kitchen ready to move - something they advised me to do because they couldn't/wouldn't protect my daughter & I. Until we die at the hands of an abuser, they're not interested
@KatieJWhite@jessphillips I was attacked by my former neighbours outside my house, after months of reporting their misogynistic/racist abuse to @metpoliceuk Instead of treating me as a victim, the useless Met classed it as a "fight" & arrested me, too 😞 The police have messed up my life & I hate them.
Did you know that the terminally f*cking useless @metpoliceuk can arrest you if you are the victim of an assault & your assailant makes a counter allegation? Not only did the Met not protect me, they assisted my assailant in f*cking up my life long term. @Keir_Starmer@itvnews
Nothing like Budget Day to remind us that Westminster is just a school playground full of overprivileged, overpaid, overgrown bickering children! If only they spent more time working together to improve the country & less time filling theirs & their friends' pockets... #Budget
@RishiSunak Please DO NOT try to make out that you would be any better! MPs are a bunch of self serving a-holes hellbent on filling your own pockets whilst watching children & pensioners starve as a result of your crappy decisions, so don't try to take the moral high ground. You're all sh1t.
@RachelReevesMP Just saw your GMB interview. It's disgraceful that MPs are taking TS tickets & hospitality boxes. I am a self employed single mum & get UC top ups. I am not allowed to claim a cup of coffee as a business expense whilst working in a Café! One rule for the rich...🤬
@SouthernRailUK My 16yo daughter has just had another issue with a train zooming through Ewell East, despite being scheduled to stop there as per board on platform. Last Tues she was stranded at Ewell East for 2 hrs because trains weren't stopping. Please explain why Ewell East isn't served?!
@metpoliceuk Just to clarify, if a member of the press was to grab something out of Mark Rowley's hands (or any other Met police officer) & throw it in the floor, exactly how quickly would they be arrested? #MarkRowley
@grantshapps So, under a Tory government we are in a situation where it's near impossible to get police to investigate burglaries, assaults, rapes, etc, but they will happily investigate & arrest people for destroying a poster?! Give me strength...
@ToryVote_ I'm a single mum, self-employed (to enable me to work AND parent full time), UC top ups, private renting...Tories DO NOT work for me. I will take my chances with Labour, thanks. Hearing our overprivileged PM say not having Sky was his experience of deprivation sickened me.
@RishiSunak As a single mum, self-employed, private renting, & needing benefit top ups to just about scrape by, if you get in again, I might as well be dead. I will take my chances with Labour this time, ta.
P.s. Thoughts & prayers with you over your deprived childhood without Sky TV 🙄
@SurreyPolice There was absolutely no other option but to repeatedly ram a calf with a car at speed? Bullsh*t. It was a barbaric way of dealing with this incident, & whoever was behind the wheel should be ashamed of themselves. It's no wonder my trust in the police depletes by the day.
@RishiSunak I would rather take my chances than risk another 5 yrs being helmed by a man who thinks children being homeless & hungry in 2024 Britain is on a par with a childhood without Sky! 🤯 If only your parents had got Sky & not wasted their £ on an education so lacking in common sense!

Why can't we have an option for "none of them!"?!
@RishiSunak@Keir_Starmer - Whoever gets in, it will be because you're the least worst option. Let that sink in. We want change, yes - a change from self-serving MPs who don't have a clue what normal lives are like!
because UC don't take self employed seasonal fluctuations into account, some months I don't earn enough so they punish me by taking away benefits...but when I have good months they STILL take away £! If I become too unwell to work due to the stress, it will be due to the system.
@MartinSLewis Thank you for your comments on @thismorning about @RishiSunak 's plans to force people to work when they are struggling. The biggest threat to my mental health at the moment is the UC system & the pressure it puts on me to do more than I can. I work, but
