.@Keir_Starmer right to raise the issue of the Cummings trip to Barnard Castle. The PM & Cabinet - humiliatingly - defended it, and Cummings had a pay rise, whilst our magnificent key workers are rewarded with a pay freeze. One rule for them, another rule for everyone else #PMQs — PolitiTweet.org

This is disappointing news for the family & friends of PC Andrew Harper, especially for his wife Lissie. Whilst, of course, the court's judgement must be respected, it shows why Lissie's campaign is so important & why we’re committed to working with Lissie & the @PFEW_HQ on this. — PolitiTweet.org

There’s no excuse for this.  A service that people are relying on for their jobs is descending into chaos, despite the Tory Government having months to prepare.  People deserve so much better.  https://t.co/2GBE3XDqSa — PolitiTweet.org

Carols Under The Arch is such an enjoyable #Abersychan Christmas community event. This year be different, but having the opportunity to come together is so important. Thanks to @NoddfaJohn & all involved-hope many people will be able to join online: https://t.co/qgpjAAyfp6 — PolitiTweet.org

The task of archivists preserving and cataloguing records is so important - it is their painstaking work that allows history to be written. Proud to have chaired the All-Party Parliamentary Group for the past 5 years, and wish new Chair, accomplished author @Chris_EvansMP, well. — PolitiTweet.org

The Home Secretary broke the Ministerial Code by bullying. There’s no defence for this appalling behaviour and it wouldn’t be acceptable in any other workplace. As ever it’s one rule for the Tory Government, another for everyone else. https://t.co/t9YPfvHGnl — PolitiTweet.org

Nick Thomas-Symonds MP @NickTorfaen

Windrush Compensation Scheme improvements are long overdue-the scheme has been too slow & many offers insultingly low.  @UKLabour has been calling for urgent change. We will study the details along with victims & continue to campaign for far wider reform. https://t.co/fvpPL9RKsH — PolitiTweet.org

Very well done @gilesdaviestcbc - the “Tin On a Wall” scheme is a fine community project that is helping so many people during these tough times. Thank you to all those volunteering @garnsychanHQ @NoddfaJohn — PolitiTweet.org

Great to join my friend and @UKLabour colleague @Bill_Esterson in #SeftonCentral this evening.
