@AliJaneMoore @LucyGoBag I remember my mum saying that when she worked when we were kids there was no private pension and you could also “opt out” of NI, which she did as we needed the cash. She has also talked of friends who divorced and ended up with “no pension”.

@workingmomblog @CountVolpe Thank you!

[Clare Moriarty @ClareMoriarty]

Good to speak to @BBCSimonJack this morning about the impact we @CitizensAdvice are seeing of sustained high energy prices, with more people than ever before needing help with energy debt. We urgently need energy bill support targeted at people in who need it most

Also, Dads, has anyone ever asked you this?

[Rebecca Dalton @ReccaBecka]

Just ferried the youngest to uni and everyone keeps asking me if I'm alright. What?! She's been dropped off down the M4 not sent to a Siberian gulag.

[Rebecca Dalton @ReccaBecka]

I remember from the other two, accounts of copious motherly weeping down various motorways, while I remained stonily dry eyed and uncomprehending.
Why would you be sad at such a lovely and exciting time for your children? They'll be home in a month with their washing.

It's time!

It's time to #floodthestreets. It's time to #floodthestreets with your rage, your anger, and your disappointment.

It's time to take control.

Join me, March for Clean Water, Sat 26th of October 2024, Parliament Square London. Turn your outrage into action.

I have also donated to @CitizensAdvice. A great organisation that deserves support, not this absurd and unwarranted attack.

[Zack Adesina @zackadesina]

If you are in London, please visit @fairshotcafe, Covent Garden. Its key function is reducing the 95% unemployment rate for those with learning disabilities, through their training/employment programme. Oh yes, the food is great too! Please give @fairshotcafe your support 🙏

@KMartUK It's brilliant! Huge congratulations.

@alexmorrison81 @RichardGodden1 Great title! Instant trigger!

“It’s heartbreaking to admit this as the leader of the nation’s biggest and best-known advice provider, but sometimes advice simply isn’t enough.” 💷

THE definitive "how to get to the tennis from Wimbledon Station" guide. DON'T get a bus, maybe get a taxi, or alternatively WALK (it's a beautiful stroll with great places to see).
I've included the bonus pub crawl for the way home. Make it a day you'll never forget/remember 😂

[Lara Stanley @laramstanley]

Striking that 58% of people don't think politicians are talking enough about what they'll do to tackle the #CostOfLiving. Since the election was announced 5 weeks ago, @CitizensAdvice has helped 30,000 people with crisis support e.g. food banks & charity grants. Action is needed

[Lara Stanley @laramstanley]

At the last 3 elections, our top advice issues @CitizensAdvice were all about accessing benefits. Today, 2 of the top 3 are about the cost of living — energy problems, and food banks/emergency charitable support. Find out more: https://t.co/R8c5m8UL2k #LivingStandardsElection
