Really enjoyed being part of this flashmob this morning in Exeter, raising awareness of the campaign to end violence against women and girls worldwide.
Misogyny is rife. It’s time to stamp it out.
Women deserve to be safe - at work, play, study or rest.

Thirty years of service to SW Devon - no mean feat. You ended up in the wrong party Gary, but it was a pleasure to get to know you.
Enjoy your retirement.
RT @garystreeterSWD: Today I’ve announced that I will not be seeking re-election at the next general election. It has been an honour and privilege to serve the people of South West Devon and I will continue to do so until the next election.

Read this and weep. A staggering tale of our times about unfit housing and landlords who couldn't care less.
Truly shocking.

@CafeMenuSystems @CooperativeBank Second month in a row it has crashed around pay day... Not good.
Sadly there are no other choices open for ethical banking in the UK at the moment for charities - have checked them all out today. Seriously concerned about @CooperativeBank service.

Water companies should not be in private hands.
No one should make a profit from water.

With my son becoming ill after swimming in a local river, this is personal for me.
Today I raised the report in Parliament and called for a debate on how we stop this behaviour.

Home Secretary woefully failing to defend the indefensible.

Buyers regret. And we hear more and more of it…
At 3.15 “We are crying out for a political party to square up to the hard Brexiteers”.
@LibDems need to be much braver on this. People see what a dreadful mistake Brexit was. We need to show leadership on a route to rejoin.
RT @LBC: 'Brexit has been a disaster.'
This Brexiteer says the only way the UK can gain economic growth is by 'rejoining the EU'.

RT @SiOldridge: There's much wrong with the Autumn statement but I genuinely can't see how the Govt can defend this - it looks to me like they're acting openly for big oil, and don't care whether we see it. Have I missed something?
The need for the legally-binding #CEBill could not be greater.

“What this Autumn Statement has set up is the biggest potential economic disaster since way before living memory where household debt default will be commonplace and those owed the money - from banks, to landlords, to energy cos will not be able to handle that”
