So it looks like @RachelReeves isn't coming on @itvMLshow live budget special tonight 8pm. We put in a bid weeks ago (for live or pre-recorded). Was told it was being considered, but have not heard anything.

Shame as we're most watched current affairs show on TV by miles, no idea why her press team would put her on far less viewed political shows but not mainstream consumer tv?

Don’t worry though, it means more time for me to go through the detail of what it means for you (and the chancellor misses the chance to give her interpretation)

Dropped into Menopause Cafe in @ProteusCreation to talk about Women’s Health. @HIOW_ICS agreed to develop a Women’s Health Strategy at my “Community Chat” in Hatch Warren. The govt Womens health strategy can be found here. https://t.co/anXZ5FV8n3

We're concerned about how the rising #fuel costs will affect #volunteering.

We're supporting @CTAUK1 in calling for the govt to change the rules on allowances for volunteers, ensuring they are't out of pocket for giving their time.

Pleased to be a supporter of @hbaldwin Bill to end sex discrimination in hereditary peerages -the current law is out of step with equality legislation and significantly reduces the number of women eligible to be members of @UKParliament @UKHouseofLords

A powerful report by @childrensociety. It's vital children have access to mental health support - such as school counselling - when they need it.

A reminder that clocks in the UK go forward an hour tonight. No, we can’t put them forward three months.

A message from The Duchess of Cornwall:

"This is a hard time for everyone, as we are all asked to stay at home to stay safe. But for some of you it is even harder, because home is not a safe place."

I'm hearing from many panicked self employed. I believe the govt knows it must sort this. Its been tackling the lower hanging fruit (ie easiest issues) first. Funding self-employed's tough logistically. Yet I'd be surprised if more help wasn't enacted next week. Try to hold on :(
