@nickykc @keano81 @bloomuk @womensaid Can’t wait 😍

[Sophia Durrani @JumblyGirlie]

Women in work will grow the economy enormously. But we can’t if we are shackled by childcare costs. We can’t if we continue to treat paternity leave as less valuable than maternity leave. Time to speak up @PregnantScrewed @bloomuk

[Sophia Durrani @JumblyGirlie]

And our paternity leave is the second worst in Europe. Pretty abysmal for a government that boasts about how world-beating we are in various aspects of governance. I’m so tired of this.

[Sophia Durrani @JumblyGirlie]

It’s not right that we have the second highest childcare costs in the western world. It costs the equivalent of >3,100 portions of avocado on toasts to put kids in childcare each year. In France, it’s just c.100. Yet those in power tell us it’s our choices that are the problem.

[Sophia Durrani @JumblyGirlie]

Today, I took my daughters to the #MarchOfTheMummies because we tell our kids they can be anything they want, but the reality is that this government is forcing women to choose between becoming mothers and their careers. Working 9-5 doesn’t cover the cost of childcare for many.

[Victoria Brooks @vbrooksy]

@nickykc Absolutely no rush at all, you had a few things to juggle! Hang in there xx
