The girls at the heart of this scandal were failed by every professional meant to protect them. Their voices were ignored and their experiences sidelined. Institutions must be held accountable for turning a blind eye to violence against young girls by predatory men. Statement 👇

When I said full term 'abortion' wasn't what the public thought of as 'reproductive rights', Stella Creasy asked me to go into my concerns about NC20 (signed by over 150 MPs). I did so in reply (below). I also have significant concerns about NC1 (signed by a similar number) and

40% of families who access social care support had to fight for it at tribunal so their child could get the support they need. Tribunals for Education & Social Care. SEND arises from accidents, illnesses - this will be your life then - fighting trauma. sense.org.uk/about-us/resea…

6 months ago I lost my job because of #LongCovid. I fought to keep my job, but I'm simply too ill to work and I'm not getting any better. How will cutting my #PIP and #ESA get me back to work when I was dismissed on ill health grounds ? #WelfareBill #DisabilityBenefits

Me n the boy had a mental health day. Bad day at AP yesterday n it's been a tough few weeks dysregulated, so thought I'd try a new strategy - a low-demand MH day. He responded well n showed me how much he's growing-up. He's happily chatting about how much he's missed drawing ✏️

All Birmingham MPs who vote for these disability cuts will lose their seats in Brum next GE. Better to take the whip now - those worth keeping. I can only think of one in Brum and they know who they are...

If they whip n all those who stand lose their standing, The Party is weakened. If they don't whip n allow a free vote more MP'S may vote with conscience - the cuts may or may not go through. If they lose the vote, The Party's weakened. It's a risk. To Whip or Not to Whip?
