BAME communities have been disproportionately affected by COVID-19. We need the findings of this review published and action taken now. Stop the excuses: publish the review. https://t.co/Zwd7PNNhDk — PolitiTweet.org

This is going to be a critical week for the country and a key test of the Government’s strategy. I would urge everyone to do their bit in the national interest by following the public health advice and helping to save lives. — PolitiTweet.org

Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer

And third, a redoubling of efforts to ensure we have a fully functioning and effective test, track and trace system in place as soon as possible. — PolitiTweet.org

Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer

First, a reiteration of the commitment to follow the science and take immediate action if scientists start raising the alarm. Second, ensure flexibility to allow restrictions to be rapidly reintroduced if we see an increase in the r-rate. — PolitiTweet.org

Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer

Ministers need to accept that mistakes have been made and do everything they now can to reduce the risks to public health. That should include three things. — PolitiTweet.org

Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer

First, ministers have not yet got a fully functioning test, track and trace system in place. Second, the Government’s public health message has been undermined because the Prime Minister was too weak to take firm action against Dominic Cummings for breaking lockdown. — PolitiTweet.org

Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer

Labour supported the lockdown and has always argued that restrictions need to be eased gradually and in a safe way. The Government’s actions over the past ten days have made difficult decisions more risky. — PolitiTweet.org

George Floyd must not become just another name. His shocking death should be the catalyst for change. To build a better society we must stand together against racism and injustice. — PolitiTweet.org

Today marks 50 years since the historic #EqualPayAct became law. It shows the impact Labour can make in power. But half a century later, progress is stalling. We must strength the Equal Pay Act and monitor how the coronavirus crisis is impacting women. https://t.co/OssOWws8rF — PolitiTweet.org

Labour has appointed Doreen Lawrence to hold an inquiry into why coronavirus is having such a disproportionate impact on BAME communities. Please share your experiences with us: https://t.co/xIGQweCgOU — PolitiTweet.org

Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer

Deeply concerning and sheds further light on the experiences of BAME workers on the frontline. Six in 10 health workers who have died have been from BAME communities. The government must act to ensure all staff are provided with the protection they need. https://t.co/MrMLefdHh3 — PolitiTweet.org

Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer

Boris Johnson should have drawn a line under the Dominic Cummings saga but was too weak to act. The public have sacrificed so much for the health of our nation - which he's now undermined. And sent a message that there's one rule for them and another for the British people. — PolitiTweet.org
