I get what you mean, except until the word ‘Muslim’ isn’t removed from almost every negative tweet, the positive ones will continue to be advertised.
@MarinaPurkiss
@JeremyVineOn5
Marina, you owned this as always. Thank you for being a clever, reasoned and informed voice in these debates.
@thecarolemalone
on the other hand couldn’t debate sense and hence refused. Marina, you star.
@andreajenkyns
‘So called hate crimes’. They are hate crimes. Instead of having a cheap political shot at Tracy, have a word with your Home Secretary who is in charge of policing overall.
@sophielouisecc
You’re defending Katie Hopkins who suggested a ‘final solution’ for Muslims, recommended a Jewish leaders wife’s head to be put into the oven and lost a libel case. Plenty of people supported her and still do, be better than this.

Rishi looks older than his age and Keir Starmer doesn’t look his age, he looks younger. Besides, what a ridiculous strategy, nothing solid to fight the election on but petty things like age.

@SuellaBraverman
Not looking too happy about it Rachel. Is it because inside you know it’s heartless but you’re having to do this? Oh those were the days when Redditch had

as the MP.
Brilliant to find out mum made it off the ventilator and back into the ward on oxygen only. Dad also still on a ward on oxygen too. Long way to go but green shoots. Grateful to God and to the team of angels dressed as healthcare professionals that make these great stories.
@LeeAndersonMP_
Most of us realise why you have more sympathy for some refugees over others but the main point is that you and your party have allowed the issue to fester. You are deliberately taking peoples minds off your own failings and distracting. The majority realise it.

@SadiqKhan
The West Midlands has the highest knife crime rates in the UK, Sadiq Khan isn’t responsible for that. ULEZ isn’t his policy, it is a Boris Johnson policy, maybe you would like to take a seat.
@Debbie_abrahams
@mhdksafa
It’s heartbreaking to see Debbie whatever the reason. The fact that she is so excited for everyone else is even more upsetting. Why wasn’t she noticed?
@sophielouisecc
This is probably one of the most silliest things you have ever tweeted and that is some standard. Have you ever considered the make up of the British population and that of India and Pakistan?
@AshleaSimonBF
‘Keep England English’, we are English. I think you meant to write ‘keep England white’, but you wouldn’t write that as you are not racist are you.

@Keir_Starmer
Keir Starmer is right, those that live and work here and pay taxes to help run this country have a right to have a say in our democracy.
@IsabelOakeshott
You supported them fully even when the rest of us knew this wasn’t a reality. Some of us that work with the health service knew there were no plans for this.

@ShaykhAzhar
Britain isn't a Christian country for starters, its secular. Secondly, do you not think they are escaping the problems created there by the West? Stop meddling in their countries and we could be on a winner my love.
@NickBuckleyMBE
Good grief, what a calibre of candidate. Tackling PC is not what you should be focussing on. Elected mayors like
@AndyBurnhamGM
and
@MayorOfWY
work to bring investment into their areas, to get changes to transport amongst other tangible projects. Andy Burnham is brilliant.
@KEdge23
For those who wanting to leave the ECHR, here’s a little about what it means FYI Since the UK signed the Convention in 1951, it has protected us from things like torture, killing, and slavery and assures our freedom of speech, assembly, religion, privacy and much more.
@sophielouisecc
Lost two seats and kept the other one with a mere 400 odd votes but you seem to think that is something to be cheerful about. Oh roll on the general election.
I initially started off supporting Keir Starmer to be leader of our party but have increasingly been impressed with Lisa Nandy. Given everything I have seen and heard from her, I will be backing
@lisanandy
for leader of the Labour Party

Another inappropriate post from you. We have a candidate who is an Enoch Powell and Trump supporter, who tries to use different communities for her own gains by lying running for the most diverse city in our country.
Every Ramadan, people of all faiths and none stand with us to make it easier. They don’t have to but they do. We need more of this definitely to counter the hate politicians in some quarters perpetuate. Thank you to all of you that stand together.

Horrendous that people are being attacked but, the chance of picking up HIV from needle stick is very low. It’s a fragile virus that can’t live long outside the body and if anyone suffers needle stick injury, there is post exposure treatment which is very successful. Let’s wait…
@AshleaSimonBF
I would rather allow these human beings to be registered here, work and be part of decent society. As a hard working tax payer I’d rather them than racists who look for blame in the wrong direction

@NHSuk
Amazed again at how such a lovely gesture is mocked by those taking the piss out of it. For those having a go, what have you done to help fellow humanity at this time of need? Absolute FA, thank you Amir.
The prophet Jesus is revered. We believe in his teachings, his miracles, the fact that he will return and to top it off, the Quran has a whole chapter dedicated to the Virgin Mary and the miraculous birth. Banning Muslims from nativities is wrong.
My heart ❤
This young woman texted her dad's number everyday for the past 4 years after he died to update him about her life. She got a text back from that number and it was from a man who lost his daughter in a car accident. He says her texts kept him alive. 😭
@darrengrimes_
Utterly disgusting that you dismiss the words of someone that experienced the horrors of what happened then for the words of a Home Secretary who is desperate for extreme support.
Mum and dad both beat

ー19 and are now home after a horrendous three weeks including a stint on a ventilator. So grateful to God and to staff
@MidYorkshireNHS
for all they have done for my parents. Appreciate your loved ones, you may not get another chance.
@thedsggroup
As a Muslim who gets lumped together with the people that cause havoc, death and destruction, I have no problem with it being called out. Doesn’t offend me as I have no association with them.
Thank you
@Keir_Starmer
for speaking about the need for a Palestinian state and asking the PM to push harder on this. Only when there is a viable Palestinian state next to a safe Israel will there be peace for both sides

gave a perfectly good response, we can talk all we want about the figures but if people don’t see prosperity or have enough to survive on then what do the figures mean.

@HeckLabour
This has enraged me. Why do that anyway but especially when it’s cold and you think it’s acceptable to throw iced water on someone sleeping rough? That poor woman.
This world is so fucked up 😭
People wouldn’t dare to do this to a dog in America but this is how we are treating human beings
My heart can’t 😭
And the guy who just filmed this, ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!
IM LIVID!
