Online Safety Bill: Never before in history has humankind been so deluged by pornography but now there's a comprehensive & unequivocal body of research data about its effect on men, women and children. Any more delay in protecting children not justifiable. https://t.co/awUgst9SvQ https://t.co/WhrAa4kJXc
Arguing for a better remedy than 'emergency legislation' going through the HL which would impose 'safe access zones' the size of 10 football pitches around all abortion clinics despite not knowing if this curb on civil liberties is justified by evidence. https://t.co/33jXvGfNsc https://t.co/VCoIzXLmO1
Schools urgently need transgender guidance given much confusion, many children suffering and teachers/school leaders struggling. Govt must ensure guidance will protect schools legally from 'class actions' brought by ex-pupils unable to fully de-transition. https://t.co/JFtFyv6ekI https://t.co/cSJJgsshoW
Future pandemic preparedness must include readiness of senior leaders in society and government to debate legitimate concerns about public health measures.

Feeding families on a low income is far harder without these skills but family hubs are great places to learn how to cook from scratch https://t.co/wo5NVvkOzG https://t.co/x5C0vC6ZLe
Independent Review of Children's Social Care highlights Family Hubs, which are unfinished business from founding of the welfare state. They build on Sure Start but their work with whole families with older children helps prevent many from coming into care https://t.co/hmOMWqvEjo https://t.co/gIcTFF89Ua
Prisoners who get family visits are 39% less likely to reoffend. There's a strong push to keep women out of prison not least because many are primary carers but there are 20 times more men in prison many of whom are fathers, with no such emphasis for them https://t.co/zjDGsxBPWT https://t.co/iuyC0JnJ3c
Buffer zones law in Public Order Bill chillingly polices view contrary to pro-abortion orthodoxy yet many mothers glad vigils made them rethink. Those pushing for it took advantage of parliamentary maelstrom at time of “discombobulating daily turmoil” https://t.co/OfpfHc0vlj https://t.co/zNcdF85iqd
Parents increasingly desperate for a legal bulwark against tide of harmful and pornographic content that flows into their children’s minds from the internet. Adult freedoms cannot trump children’s safety as happened with Pt 3 of Digital Economy Act 2017 https://t.co/9gsT33Tr4f https://t.co/vQPDLh5Jzx
