Really good response from @timfarron MP, opposing the Tories attempts to criminalise trespass. Get in touch with your MP to fight this legislation, show them how much it means to us righttoroam.org.uk/mpletter #righttoroam

Dear @RishiSunak,
On Sunday on Marr you said you 'quibbled' with my number of 3m #ExcludedUK financially impacted by Covid missing out on the main support schemes?
I agree an accurate number is needed. Will the Treasury then pls research exactly how many are missing out?
Chucked under the bus again!#newstarterjustice @RishiSunak why do you refuse to include #newstarterfurlough ? The extension of the jrs whilst great to those on it is a kick in the teeth to us who are not. Not only left behind but stranded on a sinking ship

I've changed job in mid March after over a month of interview procedure! Last day 15/03 the first 16/03 I was/am on Payee and my current employer wants to desperately furlough me paid over 5k agency fee! RTI sent 25/03
Please extend the date as I need my JRS #newstarterfurlough
this headline is wildly misleading.most new starter employees will still not receive any help as they will not of been registered on payroll until after the 19th, in line with payroll #newstarterfurlough #newstarterbacklash bbc.co.uk/news/business-5227…

Will you really accept this “date change” as a solution? Most #newstarterfurlough still aren’t eligible! HELP!

This doesn’t cover most of the new starters that began in March but were laid off, receiving some pay but not until after the 19th #newstarterprotest #newstarterfurlough
We are not “all in this together” @RishiSunak find a solution to #newstarterfurlough loophole. #newstarterjustice

We are not just numbers. We are families with kids, grandparents, brothers and sisters. We are hard workers who accepted amazing job opportunities before you even thought up of the JRS. This is simply not fair. #newstarterjustice #newstarterfurlough #newstarterprotest
I was Wondering today what Brent would make of this Covid19 situation @rickygervais ? Would he support the nation with a rendition of Dylan or The Police, every step you take, maybe? Or one of his own, Electricity? #stringstobrentsbow

Well I’m glad MPs have an extra £10k for expenses. Tell me @RishiSunak could you live on £0.00 per month? Thousands of us have fallen through the cracks and have 0 income #newstarterfurlough #questiontime

1/3 JUST PUBLISHED: @MelJStride has written to @RishiSunak urging him to set out what action he will take to help those who aren't eligible for the Treasury's support measures in response to #coronavirus.
I have been laid off. new job started on March 16th. I was offered/accepted job Feb 7th. Prior I was self employed and cancelled all work. My new employers can’t furlough me and have lost all income. Can you help those in this loop hole? #AskRishi #newstarterfurlough
