Travelling is the best thing. Seen so many fantastic places across the world with family and alone. Roll on my next adventure.

We fight for our rights to support during a pandemic! @BorisJohnson @AlokSharma_RDG @scullyp need to make an URGENT U-TURN on #maternitypetition recommendations by @HoCpetitions so we are not longer #ExcludedUK or discriminated against for having a baby!! #wearenotgoingaway

[Bethany Power @BethanyPower__]

Can’t believe @BorisJohnson naivety to #maternitypetition like he doesn’t know 🙄🤷🏼‍♀️! Thank you @CatMcKinnell for questioning him again at today’s PMQ & standing behind us always! 3rd time lucky?🤞🏼#ButNotMaternity #lockdownbabies #ExcludedUK #GapsInSupport

[Petitions Committee @HoCpetitions]

Our report on the Impact of Covid-19 on maternity and parental leave, prompted by the #maternitypetition, backs petitioners' call for an extension of maternity leave & pay.

Watch two petitioners tell @BBCPolitics how the pandemic has affected their families 👇

[Rachel @Rachelf91]

If Ireland have implemented this they obviously recognise the impact it’s had - why is it different in England? #maternitypetition #ButNotMaternity @BorisJohnson @RishiSunak @scullyp

[Desiree Worth @dez_zie]

What an absolute disgrace, failing mothers once again! Are we still in the dark ages or has our government just chosen not to 'follow the science' on this occasion? @BorisJohnson

[Sophie roberts @Sophier50181764]

The government who have claimed to ‘follow the science’ have ignored the science and experts who understand the effects of COVID on new mums. Mums losing their jobs, suffering with their mental health and they won’t help. #maternitypetition @BorisJohnson

[Laura ❤️🌈 @rain8ows]

I'm still appalled by this choice of wording from @scullyp. The vast evidence presented to you on the perinatal #mentalhealth crisis #Covid19UK is causing wasn't enough to 'persuade you'? Overriding message - this government doesn't care about mental health. #maternitypetition

[Rachel @Rachelf91]

Months of waiting for a decision that reads as though the evidence wasn’t taken into consideration! The evidence is there, see it from our point! Why should our babies miss out? Why should we miss out on exemptions/healthcare? @RishiSunak @BorisJohnson @scullyp #maternitypetition

[Natalie Swain @NatalieSwain17]

Why are our babies missing out on important health care and checks .. being treated unfairly!?! The future generation deserve better @BorisJohnson @RishiSunak @scullyp #maternitypetition

[Support Maternity Petition @NicolaMunro20]

#maternitypetition my heart is broken for every single one of these babies, they have been shown in one day just how little they mean to the UK government. Don’t worry little ones you have the most amazing parents who will always fight to give you the best life

[Jodie Fisher @jozzaj]

You had the choice to support new mums, now you will have NO choice but to support as we have to leave our jobs to care for them. Everyone of is us will have to claim UC... @BorisJohnson @scullyp you failed but why are we surprised! #maketheuturn #maternitypetition

[Rachel @Rachelf91]

@BorisJohnson @scullyp @RishiSunak you have failed the future generation and so many parents with your terrible decision in relation to the #maternitypetition - if you were us what would you do? No HV, no dental, no GPs and no mental health support!

[Rachel @Rachelf91]

I’m beyond disappointed at the decision on the #maternitypetition how can you say you aren’t persuaded? We haven’t had access to HV, dental care, GPs or needed specialist appointments. We didn’t plan for a pandemic why should we miss out on our exemptions? @BorisJohnson @scullyp

[Catherine McKinnell MP @CMcKinnellMP]

Pleased to see @DailyMirror highlight impact of #covid19 on new parents & our @HoCpetitions report on extending maternity leave. Disappointed the Govt have not recognised the urgency of this especially since @BorisJohnson agreed to personally look at it https://t.co/2IPFl8CAtW

[Bethany Power @BethanyPower__]

Yep @scullyp & our @GOVUK; @BorisJohnson @RishiSunak @AlokSharma_RDG @SteveBarclay @vickyford @GavinWilliamson @mimsdavies has missed the 60 day deadline to #maternitypetition! An absolute disgrace!! #ButNotMaternity #lockdownbabies #ExcludedUK #GapsInSupport

[Rachel @Rachelf91]

Is today the day we will finally get a response? @scullyp @BorisJohnson @RishiSunak @AlokSharma_RDG Confirm your decision on the #maternitypetition we have been #excludeduk long enough!! Stop ignoring us & answer the petition!

[Tildi @ilditoth]

@HoCpetitions @HoCpetitions @CatMcKinnell Hi. It's the 7th September today which is after the 60 days headline, do you know when we will receive the response please? Lots of us are missing out every single day gone past!

We very much look forward to hearing from you today @BorisJohnson @scullyp and @RishiSunak - here’s to supporting your people & the next generation, here’s to protecting the nhs, protecting jobs, here’s to following the science!👏🏻

[Sam @SamEllison86]

@BorisJohnson
We're still waiting for an answer.

@piersmorgan
Any chance of making some noise about the maternity petition for us? New parents & babies have been left with no support through lockdown.
