Our social care system for children is in crisis. Today I asked the Prime Minister about his government’s plans to tackle this national scandal, whereby private operators are making fortunes on the backs of vulnerable children and desperate local authorities. 👇

In 2019, I was one of the homeless young care leavers. Now, there are 4,300 young care leavers facing homelessness. Questions like the one raised by Jake Richards MP are needed, now more than ever. The government has to deliver on their promise to support young care leavers.

Matriculated at Oxford University today. I remembered our first nights as refugees in Canada, waiting in line for beds at a shelter. My mom gripped my hand. “This is only a nightmare. When you start school, you'll dream happy things.” Thank you for letting me dream big, mom.

Voting for Oxford’s chancellor has begun and I’m voting for @Jan4Chancellor! When I was student body president at Oxford, Jan always listened to our concerns and knows Oxford’s labyrinth system very well. Also…enjoy this picture of me with outgoing Chancellor Lord Patten! :)

When I applied to university, I was told the odds were against me—only 14% of care leavers make it to university. Now I'm in my 2nd year at Oxford, despite the odds. If you're a care experienced student applying to university, you CAN do this ♥️ #NationalCareLeaversWeek

I can’t vote in the chancellor election but @Jan4Chancellor would be a huge step for underrepresented students at Oxford, especially given her support for young carers and care experienced students at Somerville! If you can vote, make sure to do so by tomorrow! ‼️

i just received an email saying it's going to take 18 YEARS to clear Oxfordshire's autism diagnosis waiting list my estimated assessment date is May 2041 – November 2043...... this is INSANE 😭

Incredibly grateful that Psychiatry UK reached out to offer me an assessment after seeing this article! SEND support needs to be a bigger priority because, unfortunately, not everyone has this opportunity. Thank you Sophia Alexandra Hall for writing this 👇

Last year, I resigned from Oxford Union's committee after being called "council estate Chloe" I regret not fighting the classism I experienced so I ran for committee and yesterday, I was elected once again I'll always be proud of where I'm from and to be "council estate Chloe"

Growing up needing a “system” to care for you feels ironic. But attending the APPG for care experience this week, meeting MPs & others with care experience, showed me we’re not alone and people are fighting for us. Thank you Jess Asato MP Become Josh MacAlister MP

At 16, I was homeless, on Universal Credit, and sitting my GCSEs. I lived in supported accommodation with other young people going through the same and angry at their struggles. These are experiences that very few, if any, MPs understand. Giving us a vote gives us a voice...

This isn't about Charlie Kirk or his comments, it's the fact that a Black working-class lad with a durag was president-elect of Oxford Union. The fact this is national news is sooo disgusting. They smeared him. And the racial abuse and death threats he received barely covered.
