✏️The Government should be working immediately to end bubbles and self isolation for children as an absolute priority.

385,000 children sent home from school & 93,500 children have not even returned to education since schools were fully re-opened.

We are in danger of creating a generation of ghost children - destroying their chances to climb the ladder of opportunity.

⚠️"The government cannot say how many Covid cases in England are being prevented by sending pupils home from school to self-isolate."

@PaulMCleal @SuzanneCleal So very well deserved @PaulMCleal!

[Helena Morrissey DBE @MorrisseyHelena]

THREE whole year groups in one of our daughters’ schools now have to self isolate due to a single positive lateral flow test in each year. This is unsustainable & so destructive for children who are typically not vulnerable to Covid. We need a serious policy change @sajidjavid!

[Bruce Melizan @TriniZant]

Well said @JohnAmaechi

While you’re here...
White privilege doesn’t mean that you’ve never faced hardship or challenges. It just means that the hardship or challenges you faced were not related to your skin colour.
@JohnAmaechi says it better than I ever could.

This is really great work by @EdConwaySky to clearly communicate what’s going on, trusting in the intelligence and interest of the audience.

The #COVIDVaccination programme in the UK has been a triumph. It is time to swap fear for optimism. Time to start rebuilding our lives and our economy. #COVID @DailyMailUK👇https://t.co/K8HXjQWida

Starmer voted for extending the restrictions. I'll leave others to judge.

[Mark Harper @Mark_J_Harper]

I’m happy for @Keir_Starmer that he had a nice time at the footie last night.

It’s just a bit galling to see this 48 hours after he voted for this kind of stuff to continue to be illegal at weddings.

Labour hypocrisy.

[Deborah Webster @debwebster77]

@DrHoenderkamp Totally agree. My 8 year old has to isolate again, but is not ill.. He has been unconsolable telling me im keeping him in jail and that he wishes he wasn't born.. Heart breaking coming from your own child.. What are we doing to our kids ?? 😒

[GB News @GBNEWS]

Andrew Neil starts the show with "some good news about Covid..."

[Bruce Melizan @TriniZant]

Well done @Sacha_Lord and @LukeJohnsonRCP. Time to push back.

[Sacha Lord @Sacha_Lord]

Since announcing that today, Hospitality, Events, Weddings, Travel, Tourism and Exhibitions have put the PM on notice, the response has been overwhelming.

Many more Trade Associations, Sector Leaders, Large Businesses and Independents have joined

Strength in numbers

Let’s open

[Bruce Melizan @TriniZant]

@BorisJohnson @SteveBakerHW So why are we still locked up @BorisJohnson ?

.@Hub4Climate is accepting submissions through June 30th for its Climate Crisis Film Festival happening alongside #COP26. Projects can be based anywhere with priority to minority or BIPOC directors and stories reflecting non-Western perspectives https://t.co/2aq63iXYOw

[Rt Hon Steve Baker FRSA 🗽 @SteveBakerFRSA]

@ONS 🚫Lockdowns cannot be perpetually on the table. Never again can these fear tactics be used.

😶We have transformed our society for the worse. It will take years to rebuild it.

[Rt Hon Steve Baker FRSA 🗽 @SteveBakerFRSA]

😱"it has now emerged the models were based on out-of-date estimates of vaccine effectiveness, which assumed far fewer people protected by the jabs."

🖥We need a radical improvement in modelling which guides policy.

@guardian I will definitely sign up when you start being balanced in your assessment of the benefits AND risks of lockdown and other restrictions and you start holding the government and their advisers to account. Until then, you won’t have my business.

[Bruce Melizan @TriniZant]

@BernieSpofforth @LukeJohnsonRCP Here here

[Bruce Melizan @TriniZant]

Well, @PeterBoneUK, you gave up that right when you gave the Goverment emergency powers to do what they want. You can hardly express surprise that Parliament is now being ignored.

[BBC Politics @BBCPolitics]

"The last people to know about the changes to Covid regulations will be members of Parliament"

Conservative MP Peter Bone says it is "disrespectful" that such a major change of policy is being announced first to the media, not MPs
