So proud of the brilliant @BellaSankey calmy explaining the actual rules about claiming asylum and busting much repeated myths. She doesn’t get angry but she explains clearly why what she’s being told is wrong. She’s a fantastic woman

Oh Jack Dromey. I’m so sad. He was such a wonderful man. A feminist, trade unionist & passionate advocate for social justice. And always just so lovely to deal with. Rest in peace Jack and massive love to Harriet. Heart breaking ❤️

Jo and Kim’s mum and dad must be so proud. Also: what an amazing set of parents to fill their daughters with such love, ambition and belief in public service. Imagine if every child had such amazing parents to support them ❤️

Got the results of my COVID antibody test. Strangely relieved to find out I have the antibodies, even though I knew I would. Please please let this mean I’m immune, I definitely couldn’t go through this again & after 11 weeks I’m still coughing & have reduced lung capacity 😩

. @SayeedaWarsi is an absolute hero, fighting a battle in her party which looks pretty lonely at the moment. This is why we all owe it to her to show solidarity and support her tireless fight to eliminate Islamophobia.

Haven’t seen my brothers & sisters since January 2020. Today they came to London & met my husband for the first time and we celebrated with 20 Pastéis de Nata

I had COVID. I ended up in hospital several times. I am still struggling with post COVID illnesses, some of which are life changing. Please just wear a mask. It protects you but it also protects others. I would do anything to have never had COVID.

This picture is amazing. If you’ve worked in politics tag yourself. I’m the woman squeezed uncomfortably behind the armchair. Cc @jillycubby @rachkinnock @ayeshahazarika

Without being a massive killjoy, here’s a short thread on why I really hope people are sensible tomorrow when the lockdown restrictions ease. From someone who nearly 17 weeks on is still pretty ill (& very miserable because of it)
