This #IWD2021, some @LibDems colleagues and I are helping reframe some of the ‘Little Miss’ characters. I #ChooseToChallenge the narrative that calls young girls ‘bossy’ instead of ‘assertive’. #IWD #RewriteTheStory

Growing up, not all the stories I read had assertive, confident & fearless female characters. So this #IWD, I've played my part in giving a book series we all know a refresh for the 21st Century - let's challenge bias where we see it. #IWD2021 #ChooseToChallenge #RewriteTheStory

Telling stories can be some of the most influential moments we have with young children, yet we still teach kids that certain attributes are positive in boys, but negative in girls. This International Women’s Day, we #choosetochallenge that narrative #IWD2021 #Parody

The EU Trade deal makes it extremely difficult for touring artists because they now need a costly work permit and face a mountain of paperwork for their equipment. I raised the case of one #StAlbans resident yesterday 👇

3 m people have fallen between the cracks of the government’s worker support schemes. The Chancellor needs to stop denying that the 3m exist & start fixing the many gaps in support. I’ve joined MPs led by @Jamie4North to take him to task #excludeduk #ForgottenLtd @APPGGapsSupport

Sad news but not unexpected given the circumstances. Government needs to back insurance scheme before other festivals face not only cancellation but financial ruin - impact felt across the industry.

The music scene in London and other European cities has been hard hit by the pandemic. This petty move by Government will make the recovery tougher. I stand with artists calling for special visas to keep bringing us their amazing work #MusiciansPassport
