The campaign calls for the much needed reform to present energy pricing structures that plunge thousands of households into fuel poverty, particularly impacting the elderly and Disabled. @FuelPovAction https://t.co/jjzZfFvhLc

- Access to justice is a fundamental right, but the cruel and immoral Illegal Migration Bill's proposed removal of interim remedies will hinder an individual's access to the courts. Another clear indication of the UK Government's disregard for fundamental rights. #StopTheBill https://t.co/4Fa4qcOoqq

We must raise awareness of the challenges faced by those who are deafblind so we can learn from them in order to create a more inclusive and accessible society. https://t.co/BB8lvuJjQ6

- It is a democratic outrage that the disgraced former Prime Minister has been given a resignation honours list. So much for 'integrity and accountability' from Rishi Sunak who approved honours for those who attended Downing St parties whilst the country was in lockdown. https://t.co/SXwnYapkdx

- Tories say that Scottish Oil & Gas paid for HALF of the UK's energy bills, it is little wonder the UK Gov have blocked all routes to Independence when they are dependent on our resources.

- Disabled people and their families are being plunged into poverty by UK Government inaction during the cost of living crisis.
