The UK's paternity leave policy is the worst in Europe - just two weeks paid at < half the minimum wage. Today we've launched The Dad Shift to help change that. Read more here: https://t.co/HHS3OIcgKs and sign our letter calling for better pat leave here: https://t.co/pF2Ay8yX15

The next time you're in a discussion about whether Labour is left enough or not, remember the Tories did this and that no Labour Prime Minister - left or centre - ever would. Basic priority number one: we need a Labour government in 2024.

This is a quote everyone should see: Andrew Mitchell said the aid cuts β€œwill be the cause of 100,000 preventable deaths, mainly among children. None of us will be able to look our children in the eye and claim we did not know what we were voting for.” https://t.co/JSI8dlv4Da

This will do nothing to stop covid spreading while having a real detrimental impact on the physical and mental health of people like me who rely on the courts for their main form of exercise - again, fully socially distanced #finsburypark

We're driven by results – that's why testing and optimisation is pivotal to everything we do. But what happens when you don't get the results you expect? In our latest blog, we share three times we got it wrong... Take a look πŸ‘‡ https://t.co/wafOtFhwpf

Testing should be at the heart of any digital work. Because results are always more reliable (and more useful) than gut instincts.
