The bpas Finsbury Park clinic this morning. No problems with anti-abortion groups before and now there are 45 protesters outside. This is a direct result of @ukhomeoffice’s refusal to take action - giving the impression that harassing women outside clinics is acceptable. #BackOff

It needs to be said again and again and again - racism is so much more than conscious hatred. It’s a devastating political system of levers and pulleys - below are some killer facts about how far the UK still needs to go #RacistBritain

@ClaudiaRTCraig Do you need me to pop round to check? 😆

[Lisa Nandy MP @lisanandy]

I have just read the PM's Brexit plan, and it has changed…. For the worse. Here are the big changes.

[Fawcett Society @fawcettsociety]

Women of colour make up 17% of women MPs now - around parity with the proportion in the population as a whole. This is up from 12.5% - amounting to 11 more WoC MPs. That’s driven by 28% of Labour’s women MPs being WoC, with 7% of Conservative MPs WoC. #UKelection2019

Utterly shameful decision by Government to ditch their responsibility to let lone refugee children rejoin their families. Hits the most vulnerable and desperate children. No reason at all for Govt to do this. They chose to. Shows what kind of PM this really is.

@traffyaston @myrakhan Fuck. Old thick bastards. This is everything Graeme has predicted, and I have resisted (like years worth, many), for so long

[Tam O'Neil @tamoneil]

@traffyaston @UKChange What about hereditary peers (overwhelming men)?

[Tam O'Neil @tamoneil]

Boris Johnson: No more unelected peers: Scrap and replace the House of Lords now! - Sign the Petition! https://t.co/zWcvh8lToF via @UKChange

<2.5% of publicly funded research dedicated solely to reproductive health, yet 1/3 women affected by gynae problems. There is five times more research into erectile dysfunction (affects 19% of men) than into premenstrual syndrome (affects 90% of women) https://t.co/g1OX8NmfF3

We - @DLProg @CakraWikara - just published a paper asking 'What do people want from their leaders? Why are some leaders perceived as naturally more trustworthy than others?' This is about #Indonesia but reckon relevant to anywhere people care about leaders ... 🤷‍♂️🤔THREAD ... 1/7

Important piece by @HelenPankhurst: in 75 constituencies in yesterday's election, there wasn't a single woman on the ballot paper. https://t.co/JWyE1avZ0A

[The Secret Barrister 🦋 @BarristerSecret]

An Election Day thread to remind you that, contrary to his bluster and lies, @BorisJohnson is soft on crime, the governments in which he has served have brought the criminal justice system to its knees, and he is not proposing to do a single thing to fix it.

[NHS Million @NHSMillion]

Health secretary Matt Hancock received £32,000 in donations from the chair of a think tank that wants the NHS abolished.

That's the kind of person you are electing today if you vote Conservative.

The Tories have a record number of female candidates – in seats they can’t win https://t.co/K2GRWw7lpP
