Away from the politics and posturing, what does it feel like to wake up this morning knowing you may be sent to Rwanda? Here are the stories of some of those who came here seeking sanctuary, and have had Home Office letters saying they may be deported: channel4.com/news/meet-the-…

Unless blocked, Sunak is going to send c.100 terrified refugees 4,000 miles away in a symbolic gesture that will neither 'stop the boats' nor save him electorally. The main result will be to cause intense pain to a group of people who have already suffered plenty.
Madness. Not to mention prosecution of protesters within weeks, wild push for prison (many serving lengthy terms), while women victimised by male violence wait YEARS, are told paltry sentences are now reason not to imprison these men at all. Are prisons only full to violent men?

Every childhood matters. We need to ensure every child gets the best start in life and isn’t living in poverty. Happier more hopeful children are the best economic policy we can have for our future. Superb from @Terri_White

We NEED to be telling more disabled stories. In the press and on the tv. The stigma that allows Pip payments to be attacked AGAIN can only be solved by understanding and empathy. This cannot go on.
Excellent bit of fact-checking/clarifying here
The excellent @Terri_White on the transformational initiative of Sure Start as a “response to poverty and inequalities in health and education” and why Labour need a bold child poverty strategy. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
🙇Exclusions can have long-term impact on a child’s life, including negatively affecting their GCSE results. 🧑🤝🧑Excluded pupils are also far more likely to be economically inactive aged 25 and have far higher rates of involvement with the criminal justice system.
📊Today's data reveals that children on Free School Meals are four times more likely to be suspended than their more affluent peers, highlighting how suspensions disproportionately affect disadvantaged pupils.
📚Our recent "Suspending Reality" reports highlighted how the impact of the pandemic, rising living costs, and the steady increase in the level of SEND over the last decade are all creating huge challenges for children, families, and schools.
🚨SCHOOL SUSPENSIONS HIT RECORD LEVELS: New data released shows that school suspensions hit record levels, with over 260,000 suspensions in Spring term 2022/23.🧵 Read our full statement here: centreforsocialjustice.org.uk/newsroom/schoo…

What is sad is how cultural impact used to have a value of its own, and there was a balance. Channels wanted some critical darlings for cultural cache, and hits. Now Big Tech have fumbled the ball so badly chasing infinite growth, we can’t have everything anymore. Or anything.
I’d also argue what’s left is not that high end, and it’s not even that popular. The algorithm of the dying streamers is telling them they want more generic mass appeal gumpf. But no one’s really watching that either. They divided the audience and bored them and now they’ve gone.
