I'm calling for urgent funding for childcare in the #SpendingReview with @WEP_UK. The govt has found billions for defence. But half of childcare providers risk closure in 6 months without support. @RishiSunak women can't afford to lose their jobs because they can't get childcare

I support @WEP_UK in calling for emergency funding for the #childcare sector. If we don’t act now a quarter of providers risk closure next year, making it impossible for parents to work and forcing many families into poverty. Do you care about care @RishiSunak? #ChildcareCrisis
