@chrischirp Thank you for providing the information we all need. You are so right - 1,000 deaths per week is NOT ok. That’s 52,000 per year!! I just don’t get why there is not an outcry about this. The media are not questioning what the government is doing about these numbers. Why?

Spent today reading @OborneTweets brilliant, “The Assault on Truth.” A gripping, although disturbing read. Sets out how Johnson’s govt has turned the UK into a place where truth and integrity no longer matter. Echoes of Orwell’s 1984, but the sad thing is this is not fiction 😱😱

@shawemily @campbellclaret @BorisJohnson You have hit the nail on the head. No one is saying this is easy, far from it. But you need to be decisive and clear with the public about the decisions you take. The current test + trace scheme is NOT WORKING. This must be sorted out NOW otherwise we will be back here again.

Well said @Hardeep_Matharu 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿. Sunak failed as Prime Minister to use the office to call out racism within his party and by Frank Hester as he thought this would be helpful to him politically. It never is. Just a shame he, and others, had to find out the hard way.

Sunak rightly condemned being labelled a “P*ki”. That he didn’t use his time as PM to condemn other instances of racism, against other minorities, who don’t have his privileges, for politically expedient reasons, is one of his biggest failings in office.

@WomaninHavana I agree. But the PM now has no one to hide behind. She must answer questions about what she knew and when re her hostile environment policy and how this was adversely impacting the #WindrushGeneration . Politicians must be held to account their policies.

@shereen_daniels Could not agree more. Just having black and brown faces in Cabinet, cannot be a goal in and of itself. Those ‘faces’ must advocate policies which address both systemic and institutional racism if they are truly to be ‘representative’. This lot have not. They’ve done the opposite.

@lewis_goodall @TheNewsAgents Great interview. The extended political interview is a lost art form, but you executed this brilliantly. Challenging but giving the interviewee the space to say what he wanted to say. Also you showed compassion. Just shows what a mistake the @BBC made allowing you to go.

@AthleticsWeekly @TeamRojas45 @TeamRojas45 - 😪😪😪. This such sad news. You are once in a generation athlete, who has time after time delivered some quite remarkable performances. Get healthy and look forward to watching you in the future.

“I am Black, not because the state, media or society has made me that way but because I choose to identify with the heritage that connects me to Africa and the Diaspora,” says @kehinde_andrews in an article for @makeitplainorg

Just seen #BlackBoys @GarrickTheatre . A great play exploring through dance, music and drama what it is like to be a black boy growing up in the UK. Definitely worth seeing - so multi-layered.

@LordCFalconer May also worth referring the AG @SuellaBraverman to legal analysis from @Kirsty_Brimelow showing #DominicCummings did not act in accordance with the law

Just under 2 years ago the BBC radically restructured its diversity division placing Director of Diversity on its highest management board for the first time. With new stats published yesterday the question has to be is the new structure working? New blog
