None of this is true. My job is not “too stressful”. I have been diagnosed with depression. 1 in 3 people have mental health issues at some point in their lives. I have not had 2 years off. I resigned from the Depute Leader role in June. — PolitiTweet.org

This is a mess. We need no part in this. Let’s recover from covid and bail out of this sinking union before we are presented with this massive bill. — PolitiTweet.org

Lastly, the total privilege enjoyed by so many MPs means that far too many of them have assumed that no current or future MP will ever have accessibility needs. Argh. — PolitiTweet.org

What is the point in teaching apprentices how to make encaustic tiles if there will never ever be any future jobs making encaustic tiles? 🙄 — PolitiTweet.org

It’s an opportunity for many MPs to talk about how much they love the Palace of Westminster and want to stay in it forever, despite the fire risks and asbestos and leaking sewage. And additional cost of refusing to decant while repair work is done. — PolitiTweet.org

Discussing this is such a waste of time. Making constant changes and demands to the plans is such a waste of money. Parliamentarians standing up patting themselves on the back for discussing this today. It’s a general debate and nothing said today changes anything. — PolitiTweet.org

The mother of parliaments can be used with a little more accuracy given the number of commonwealth parliaments that began or are currently run in a Westminster style. — PolitiTweet.org

@AndrewM60645243 @koalainscotland The same issue applies to younger MPs no matter where they live. It's not a Scotland specific issue. None of us have reached the top of the queue yet (unless we live in Moray or other pockets where they've widened eligibility). — PolitiTweet.org

@AndrewM60645243 @koalainscotland Why would the Scottish Parliament have vaccinated me? In common with the rest of the UK, priority is given to health workers, those with certain underlying health conditions, and on the basis of age. Why should I skip the queue ahead of teachers or retail workers? — PolitiTweet.org

@LiLeiLou Hardly surprising though, is it? Since when did this Tory government consider the needs of disabled people, let alone prioritise them. — PolitiTweet.org

If your MP, for personal health reasons, is unable to risk travelling to Parliament, they will be excluded from taking part in the democratic process on your behalf. — PolitiTweet.org
