Day 2 of @UKYP Youth Parliament Conference. The MYP’s have whittled down nearly 300 debate motions to the REALLY important points that matter to young people. A truly passionate and democratic process. MYP’s make the professional MP’s look like trainees 🤣🤩
Place morw power in the hands of young people and they will inspire wise policy.

The £1 billion a year annual decline in funding for youth services over the last decade has made it difficult to access support in many areas.
We are calling on national government to create a long-term plan to ensure all young people have access to the youth work provision they need where they live.
Our Manifesto 2024 outlines long term plans to address this and empower young people through youth work: nya.org.uk/manifesto2024

Back of my Polling Card for local elections. For 1st time, photo ID is required. Card gives many options for elderly or those with disability. None, NONE, for younger or student voters. The policy is simply biased against younger voters, designed to suppress their vote.

Left: Nigel Farage on #ImACeleb claims that immigration to the UK is the reason you can't get a GP appointment
Right: @DrAmirKhanGP explains that immigrants and their descendants are part of the reason you CAN an appointment with your GP because they comprise 42% of the NHS medical workforce (doctors, nurses and clinicians)
