Today, @officestudents confirmed that arts courses in English universities will have their subsidies slashed by 50%

This is an unconscionable attack which will force courses to close, restrict access and undermine the huge contribution creative arts make to society

Let’s not pretend this is a good day for women. I hope my neighbour Nazanin, in court alone without British Embassy support, will be treated more gently and respectfully by the Iranian authorities than the mourners at Clapham Common were treated by ours.
Happy mothers’ day. 💐

My wife has been teaching online since 8:30am this morning and is now doing Parents Evening until 7:30pm, after this she’ll spend an hour or two lesson planning etc and some would like you to believe that Teachers are sitting at home twiddling their thumbs 🙄

As well as clapping our amazing carers & keyworkers tonight, I’ll also be clapping my Mum - I’ve not seen her since my Dad’s funeral 9 weeks ago, & she’s not seen her kids, grandchildren or her new great grandchild.
Everyone is making amazing sacrifices

[Sue Cowley @Sue_Cowley]

We've both emailed our MP about Cummings. Really interested to know how widespread this is. Please RT if you have contacted your MP too.

[Tim Burgess @Tim_Burgess]

So. @BorisJohnson just said that ‘most people would accept and agree’ with what Dominic Cummings did.
Please answer and retweet.
Do you accept and agree with what Dominic Cummings did?

Dear @Tate - can you take over the soon to be vacated @IKEAUK #Coventry store and make a #tatemidlands please? It’s got a turbine hall size space for large installations as well as everything else a gallery would need! @Coventry2021 @coventrycc make this happen please!

Conservative vote increased by 1% which led to this ‘landslide’

Lib Dem vote increased by 4% and they came out one seat down

This is the absurdity of the horse-race 🐎 voting system we are supposed to accept as democracy
