Staggering.

I’d be very happy to arrange for @michelledonelan to do some training in the connection between misogynistic hate speech and violence against women and girls.
Free speech is one thing. But free hate speech?
And she’s in charge of the online safety bill. 😬
RT @PinkNews: Culture secretary Michelle Donelan said that while Jeremy Clarkson’s rant agains Meghan Markle was “outrageous”, he should be free to “say what he wants”.

This crisis is frightening.

The government must get a grip and fast.

@JoshBabarinde @BarnesyJobarnes That's fantastic - well done your Mum! Never too late to go back to education and she'll probably get a lot more out of it now too. Inspiring

@SiOldridge @LibDems @emptyhomes @MikeBernersLee And the new builds are poorly built, overpriced and can also be bought as second homes! It’s madness.
Time for local authorities to be allowed to write their own planning laws to suit local need (need not demand)

@TOTNEZ @Conservatives It's a catch-all term. I'd say anyone who does a 'normal' job that is key to the survival of a community - teachers, social care workers, nurses etc. But also shopkeepers, bus & taxi drivers, electricians, plumbers, post office staff etc... All crucial to a functioning society

The haves... and the have nots. It's everywhere you look.

One rule for them, one for everyone else.
RT @MarinaPurkiss: How’s this for a cheeky little fact that just dropped on @SkyNews…

Boris Johnson earned more in 1 hour doing speeches in his 2nd job

(£64k)

Than the average UK worker earns in 2 years

This is the same guy who in June said:

‘There's “no point” in giving workers a pay rises’.

Our own MP said: "South Devon has one of the highest concentrations of second homes in the country."
Keyworkers literally can't afford to live here. Local families being evicted for AirBnB. Kids forced to move schools.
Yet they won't do anything to limit the number of 2nd homes.

Last night @LibDems proposed a yearly review into how second homes are affecting local communities.
Second homes & holiday lets are pricing local people out and communities are dying.

But Tory MPs voted it down, including our own. Why?

RT @timfarron: We desperately need to see more homes built in Cumbria that local people can actually afford.

Today in Parliament, I asked the Housing Minister to give local councils and national parks the power to enforce 100% affordability on planning applications.

RT @jennirsl: Please read; the most important piece I've written. Mass poisoning has suddenly killed off most sea life for 30 miles by the Tees. The govt claims it's natural; ind scientists warn it's manmade. The govt is desperate not to inquire too deeply as its freeport policy is at stake.

@rotciv_werdlem @GWRHelp That journey would be around £50 in Europe. Even £141 (which wasn't possible for the times I need to travel, though still off peak) is way too much to make train travel a competitive option for most people.
For the sake of the climate we HAVE to rethink our transport priorities

@petercatonbooks @RachelFeather10 @GWRHelp Yep - this was with railcard and advance tickets. I use trains all the time and know the tricks. But the bottom line is the service is poor and tickets are massively overpriced in order to pay eye watering salaries to company bosses and dividends to shareholders.
