Recent incidents of antisemitism from NHS doctors filled me with shame and anger. I will not tolerate it - or any other racism. The NHS must be a safe harbour from the rising tide of racism in our society. Enough is enough.

As @BertinGabby says, extreme and violent sexual content is no longer the preserve of niche corners of the internet – it is the mainstream. And it is fuelling a pattern of misogynistic violence. I hope the Govt looks closely at her recommendations. https://t.co/BxtljMBeGt

This is the wrong decision. We will not tolerate antisemitism on our streets. The role of the police is to ensure all football fans can enjoy the game, without fear of violence or intimidation. https://t.co/8aBeqE4qbA

The NHS should be safe for all. I’ve been shocked by NHS staff who seem to think that racism against Jewish people is acceptable - encouraged by a complacent and indifferent regulatory system. Enough. John Mann will lead a short, sharp review to deal with racism in our ranks.

Welcome news for millions of pet owners that they could save hundreds every year on their vet bills. I will carefully consider the CMA’s findings to make sure that the sector is working for pet owners, working for vets, and working for business.
Our in-depth investigation into the UK’s Veterinary sector has provisionally found that the market isn’t working as well as it should for pet owners. We’re proposing major reforms to transform the consumer experience, leading to more choice and savings. https://t.co/ijuMebsvZJ

My heartfelt thanks to MPs who stayed beyond midnight to discuss Baby Loss Awareness Week and, most of all, the families who shared their stories with us - including colleagues. I wish words could do you justice, but I know that it will be actions that count.
"What should have been a moment of joy became a terrifying ordeal." @WesStreeting reflects on the experiences of families who lost babies after failures in NHS maternity care. #BabyLossAwarenessWeek
