I feel sad today. Benjamin Zephaniah’s work was accessible yet eloquent, powerful and often really funny. The city of Birmingham adored him. What a loss.

Finally got to read this wonderful book after spotting a copy in the second hand bookshop on my road. Loved it 💕💕💕

No offence to money, but learning at 21 to never trust a fuckboy with that much hair gel is worth WAY more than £95k. #Traitors #Mollie

Dear J.K. Rowling You are not a gay person. You do not represent gay people. You do not speak for gay people. You certainly do NOT get to hide behind gay people to justify your transphobia. Please kindly back off and stop trying to weaponise us against trans people. Regards Sam

When even a weekend away in Margate with friends turns into a canvassing session... Happy to report lots of support for @PollyBLabour in East Thanet!

Help am I watching Oliver Twist or #DragonsDen coz there’s a man on the telly talking about rationing tenant’s heating so that he can make more money and assume the form of a leach

I love our city. Our vibrancy, our diversity, our strength of spirit. If I'm re-elected on Thursday we can carry on building a fairer, safer, greener London for everyone. In contrast - here's what the Tory candidate Susan Hall thinks of Londoners:

I simply could not resist jumping in with both feet and going on a Lewisham field trip to Kent. I’m disabled and have had enough of being shat on by the Tories. Let’s do this! 💪🏼🌹 #ToriesOut

36 days to go. Remember which political party gave Baroness Michelle Mone £203m of taxpayers' cash for largely useless PPE. Full story here 👇

It’s a not a hill to die on but I hate “Starmer will be another PM who’s gone to Oxford” takes. Doing your MA at Oxford - and your degree at Leeds - as first gen student from a working class family is not the same as a posh kid waltzing in to do PPE. Wild to pretend otherwise.

Watching the far right set fire to the newly reopened Spellow Hub library in Liverpool should be lesson enough on how much these thugs really care about “communities” and “young children.” Let none of these thugs pretend they are motivated by anything other than racism and hate.

Nobody used Lucy Letby’s race or religion when she murdered babies and got jailed -ask yourself why no Greggs bakers were robbed when she was sentenced to prison? Why were no hotels burned down? Why were no riots screaming and looting through John Lewis to protect our kids? 🇬🇧

Nothing shows your Labour Party values more than *checks notes* resigning exclusively in The Times three months after using a Labour ticket to get elected.

Absolutely. I don’t always agree with Nadia Whittome MP but thank you for continuing to call out transphobia in our party

Please RT or send this photo. We need this trending today. Fly high Janey. #Trumpisacunt Janey Godley

My statement on today's ruling. First and foremost, to all other trans people: look after yourselves.

In years to come we'll look at this era and wonder why in light of a global pandemic, economic inflation, growing inequality and technological upheaval we decided to make the private lives of a minority considerably worse.
