A pregnant woman and six children are amongst the twelve people who died when their boats capsized in the Channel, French officials say. I don’t know how much more horror needs to occur before politicians will find the nerve to provide safe routes for asylum. Few words are left.

We will never forget the 72 plus people who lost their lives in the Grenfell Tower fire. Justice delayed is justice denied.

The length of time it has taken to get this far after the horrific disaster and lives lost at Grenfell is patently unjust. There has been disgraceful buck-passing and Government must act now to short circuit this and make sure people can go to bed at night knowing they are safe.

This is deeply disappointing- not sure where else could be more important for MPs to be showing their solidarity, compassion and commitment to justice for those who have lost loved ones and struggled for so long for justice #JusticeForGrenfell

Hey Clive - how about Compassion in Politics bill to stop lying in politics - the Senedd has already agreed to implement it? It will disqualify from office those who deliberately misrepresent the truth and would have prevented Brexit bus lies and much else

We want to thank all the MPs who prioritised compassion over cutting the winter fuel allowance. We are calling on the UK govt to put the right to not be in poverty or destitution into domestic law. RT if you agree #compassioninpolitics #putpeoplefirst

This is heartbreaking and wrong and an obvious area where a compassionate frame rather than an adversarial approach would reverse it Compassion in Politics
