No social distancing at all at bottom of Portcullis House escalator as MPs get stuck in a log jam with the queue stretching back to the bottom of the still moving escalator with MPs still pouring down. An absolute disgrace! pic.twitter.com/ze24f7smfl

Your regular reminder. Sweden doing catastrophically badly in deaths per capita with its laissez faire policy towards COVID-19. But exceeded on the seven day rolling average by the UK, with its ‘world beating’ Coronavirus response pic.twitter.com/G7eITQj8Vt

MPs now have to turn up in person & crowd this room in a long snaking queue, despite a perfectly good remote Parliament.

Why?
Because Jacob Rees-Mogg cooked up a loony plan to re-stuff Commons benches with Tories to cheer Johnson, who was struggling against Starmer’s questions. pic.twitter.com/ZWXXzPpKvu

I have held off using the f word for three and a half years, but there is no longer any honest alternative. Trump is a fascist, and he is promoting fascism in America.

Morning @BorisJohnson. This is your daily reminder that you don’t get to ignore the rule of law, shut down journalists & put lives at risk to keep your adviser in a job & then just tell us to “move on”#NotMovingOn https://t.co/GQjYRHUhQe

Museum collections are often rooted in colonialism and racism. Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales is no different

If you're showing up for black people now, this is the easy part. The real impact is when it's not fashionable to be an ally. My column today on why real white solidarity is a lot harder when it means giving up more than just money and social media space. https://t.co/fBdkK7iD2R

It has shown no such thing. Your party imposed an absurd, unnecessary, discriminatory, undemocratic voting system that disenfranchises many MPs and their constituents - making Parliament a laughing stock in the process. https://t.co/nWUFMMwe4S

An EU #GreenRecovery will only happen if our Central Bank gets in line with climate objectives and stops funding big polluters. No billion-euro @ECB bailouts for the fossil fuel industry! #Peoplenotpolluters

PM really did just say “I’m proud of our record” on #Covid19

Would that be the record of having highest excess deaths in Europe?
Or being worst hit in Europe for percentage increase in deaths?
With test & trace still not fully up & running, this beggars belief #PMQs

Former Under Secretary of Defense James Miler submits his resignation to SecDef Esper, telling him "Law-abiding protesters just outside the White House were dispersed using tear gas and rubber bullets — not for the sake of safety, but to clear a path for a presidential photo op."

If any journos want to know what I think about this shower of a govt, I’ll be plodding through the voting lobby for a full 30 mins or more today for each vote. Feel free2report that 650* MPs queuing for 1 hr costs taxpayer c.£25k: the cost of a nurse 👩🏽⚕️ (*some MPs are shielding) pic.twitter.com/gy2sq8X5mc
