I can’t wait for this event to hear from residents & share our fantastic @LibDems policies from reviving the NHS to ending homelessness to bringing down bills to free school meals! Shame Liz won’t be listening to residents too & explaining record child poverty here in Leicester

@ArcherMail @HuwpHuw @DominicRaab Temporary? The new two test aid lock from @RishiSunak means that over the past two decades we would have only contributed 0.7% once, in 2001.

I’ve signed it, will you too? Westcotes resident, Katherine, has created a petition to restore bus routes to Leicester city centre after they were changed to terminate early, isolating those less mobile and with disabilities from accessing the high street:

Lovely to be welcomed by @NHSProviders Deputy Chief Exec. @Saffron_Policy to discuss how staff wellbeing is vital to deliver high-quality care. Encouraging to hear ideas and plans from parliamentarians and other healthcare partners including @nmcnews , @MidwivesRCM and @RCollEM

PMQs @BorisJohnson : “We have done everything we possibly can”: If #PPE contracts were given to those who could deliver, If #furlough was extended sooner, If #Lockdown2 was bought in when recommended by scientists, We’d have saved money, saved jobs and saved lives! #COVID19

Trans people are already reluctant to seek healthcare due to existing discrimination. Segregating trans people is a step backwards in history. Besides, where does Labour think these extra wards will come from? Hospitals already beyond 100% capacity… #TransRightsAreHumanRights

🚨 BREAKING: Labour will ban trans women from female hospital wards, says Wes Streeting. Labour would ban all trans patients from "single-sex" wards, instead putting them in separate wards solely for trans people. Streeting says this is a "priority" for Labour. (Via Sky News)
