@WestJet @jofyyc @sueqhayduk @WestJet I have been trying to book a ticket as well. I keep getting the payment error as well

@ChrisEisenstadt @EFCCG @niexecutive @duponline @uuponline @allianceparty @GreenPartyNI @pb4p @SDLPlive @sinnfeinireland Deep flawed is putting it mildly... As a registered childminder I have many concerns about this scheme. I truly hope we are asked our opinion on this before it is rolled out. We need to fix the mistakes now

[Theresa McCaughey @tinytearaway]

@shaunagh_92 @cllr_petermcrey @allianceparty As a registered childminder this is a very good question but with our ratios so tight and no flexibility afforded to us there will be a shortage of spaces

Key ask highlights critical role of #childcare this #AE2022 - "Address the unequal distribution & undervaluing of caring responsibilities & implement the Childcare Strategy/Government Funded Childcare Provision"

Workers of Regina Coeli you all should be so proud of what you have achieved here. Absolutely amazing news✊❤😊👏🥰🥰🥰👏👏

@MartinSLewis How can any company think a 50% increase in prices is OK? Especially as they had already been put up not too long ago.

[Employers4Childcare @EFCCG]

Our no 1 ask ahead of #AE22 is that the new @niexecutive delivers an ambitious, inclusive & fully funded #ChildcareStrategy that supports parents to afford the childcare they need & providers to deliver it sustainably. Childcare is essential to our economy & must be a priority

[Employers4Childcare @EFCCG]

"High quality childcare is key social infrastructure" - we couldn't agree more!
These findings echo what's happening in Northern Ireland where we are seeing childcare fees rising as providers face increased costs. Yet our new #ChildcareStrategy further delayed.

[Employers4Childcare @EFCCG]

This is key support for children & families, particularly during the worsening #costoflivingcrisis - we support the call from @ChildreninNI for all political parties to commit to continuing School Holiday Food Grants

[Employers4Childcare @EFCCG]

This is key support for children & families, particularly during worsening #costoflivingcrisis - all parties need to come together after the election to form an Executive, appoint Ministers and make progress on the issues that matter to families

[Employers4Childcare @EFCCG]

Looking forward to hearing the parties' priorities for #childcare at this morning's #NICVAHustings especially after learning that work on new #ChildcareStrategy has been further delayed @NICVAPolicy #AE22

[Employers4Childcare @EFCCG]

Positive to see parties' commitment to delivery of a new #ChildcareStrategy to support parents & the childcare sector, who can't afford to wait any longer for the support & investment which is already many years' overdue. Looking forward to this being a day 1 priority after #AE22

Report of last meeting of the APG on Early Education & Childcare before #AE2022 ⬇️
It's been a privilege to provide secretariat & work alongside the members & stakeholders in such a collaborative & positive way. Key now = ensuring childcare is a day 1 priority for new Executive

[Sharon Collins @shazcollins1]

Chris, you Zoom wrapped your arms around our sector during a global pandemic, huge respect, always 👏 👏👏 Thank you 😊

Tomorrow @GlasgowCC will force 1000 less taxis off Glasgow’s streets by June 2023. This means mayhem for late night workers, members of the public & drivers alike.

No-one benefits. Stop the #BlackCabBlackout
