Which policies in the Labour Manifesto directly target a marginalised group?

Tories have got rid of most legal traveller sites, what will happen to the children when their homes are seized and their parents locked up?
#r4today @bbcnickrobinson #VoteEducation
How about the fact the Tories are still trying to deport black British citizens?
The #Windrush scandal continues?

What of 9 years of systematic persecution of the disabled?

Which groups have been marginalised and deprived of education as control of education has been handed to conflicting vested interests?

After the lowest level of industrial action since beginning of the trade union movement why did the Tories decide to bring in the harshest trade union laws in Europe?
And now unions are beating those thresholds they want to go further with even harsher rules undermining action
Now Farage says the Tories are the Brexit party. Well their representatives are calling for outright ideological purges of our public services with pure fascist zeal. I wonder what the Tories thibk of this @JamesCleverly
@bbcnickrobinson #r4today
And you have the #ToryManifesto
Despite @bbcnickrobinson claims it's mild and uncontroversial, it has one hell of authoritarian approach to all sorts of things if you bothered to cover all the policies properly
#r4today #GMB #skypapers

I mean the application of this massive policy hidden at the very end of the manifesto and not mentioned at all by the Tories reads very much like the Enablement act

After a day of me pressing this issue it's starting to feature in other media
@bbcnickrobinson will #r4today ?
As I said, experts who really know their stuff are speaking up on this giant policy hidden away amongst the summary of the #ToryManifesto

And which party has gained the considerable online support from Steve "proud to be labelled a white supremacist" Bannon

An army of trolls and bots seemingly working in conjunction with CCHQ?

The evidence for this is quite substantial

My #ToryManifesto Review Thread

I read the whole thing and thought I would pick out a few things that caught my attention that might get missed out.

Some are just observations but there's there's a couple of alarm bells ringing.

I'll go in order of appearance
Question
How will they back teachers enforcing discipline?
Schools already have enough powers, what they are lacking is the resources and we know that 83% of schools will still face real cuts.
We also need the services that support struggling families restored.
#VoteEducation
Is £500m enough to replace the many youth services lost since 2010?

More importantly, what's a Secure School? Is this a return of the borstal?

@CCHQPress @Conservatives @jeremycorbyn Can you count how many schools are going to be let down by Johnson's promises on education?
@CCHQPress @Conservatives @jeremycorbyn Shall we see who?
@CCHQPress @Conservatives @jeremycorbyn And why?

#Tories Election Cock-Up Chaos so far - a continuing series :

01 - #Tories admit and apologise for a doctored, misrepresentative video of Kier Starmer. Tory MPs like @JohnnyMercerUK leave it on their feed and actively continue to spread.

02 - #Tories Boris #Johnson gets booed out of Addenbrooke Hospital by staff and patients alike, unmentioned by #BBC, who were right there.

#Labour NEC members Jim Kennedy and @Yasmine_Dar claim never to have received any apps for selection from Bassetlaw members. Quickly U-turned when presented with irrefutable evidence of the Council Leader’s application. This is corruption & needs investigating urgently @UKLabour
I’m aware of at least three other #Bassetlaw members who applied. What happened to their applications? How can the selection process be allowed to proceed if legitimate applications have not been considered? How many other selections have been affected? @labourlist @siennamarla

What the hell is @jeremycorbyn doing?
Why is he enabling #Tory #Brexit?
Is this the final betrayal?
No, it isn't.
It's the predicted effect of decisions taken 2-3 years ago. All things considered, it's not as bad as it could have been (thanks to #StopBrexit crowd).

Thread.
1/n
To understand why, I need to outline 2 important mechanisms that most people, politicians and commentators seem to ignore, dismiss or simply don't get. They have different and somewhat opposite consequences, but are both decisive in the current & foreseeable predicaments.
2/n
1st and foremost: the biggest constraint that applies to political decision-making comes from the past decisions & policies.
It is a massive constraint.
Cameron COULD NOT convincingly campaign for #Remain, because his own policies CREATED the discontent channelled by #Leave.

How can Corbyn get into Downing St at the next election if one comes soon? Here is my thread looking at what needs to change from the 2017 #GeneralElection when #Labour won 262 seats. /1
To become the largest party, Labour needs to gain around 30 seats. It so happens that there are 29 seats where Labour is in 2nd place less than 3 pts behind the incumbent. 21 are held by the #CONSERVATIVES, 7 by the SNP, 1 by #plaidcymru. /2
To get a working majority, Labour needs to gain 61 seats given Sinn Fein don't take their seats. It so happens there are 62 seats where Labour is in 2nd place less than 7 pts behind the incumbent. 45 are held by the Conservatives, 16 by the SNP, 1 by Plaid Cymru /3
