1638236332794191889 | #Childcare is an urgent issue for too many who have signed @HoCpetitions, whilst the Chancellor has finally recognised the problem, he’s failed to find a solution that works for families, children and the sector and risks exacerbating existing problems. https://t.co/eewQe2zjQy | 3 |

1638918576215146497 | @HoCpetitions @NickFletcherMP Is there any mechanism for getting factual corrections onto the record if an MP in the debate makes a mistake? There has been media rhetoric in the last few days that incorrectly uses figures for school children with low attendance when talking about home educated children. | 5 |
1638927600134369280 | @HoCpetitions @NickFletcherMP Sadly many false narratives & prejudicial personal opinions have dominated the discourse on home ed. The “school is best mantra” has superseded facts in favour of outrage. We owe it to children in 21st C, to fully explore the benefits of learning at home & support families. | 5 |
1636701725875744768 | @WildJustice_org @MarkAvery @DefraGovUK @NaturalEngland @NatResWales @nature_scot @HoCpetitions @RuthTingay @ChrisGPackham Just ban shooting Woodcock. Any shooter that wants to shoot Woodcock, hasn't got a functioning moral compass. | 3 |
1636829688331923459 | @PeterStefanovi2 @HoCpetitions claims that they never claim the vaccine is a Brexit benefit and have rejected this petition on that basis. https://t.co/uxjPOgA8vP | 3 |
1636988167084470272 | @alisonpearsonSW @WeAreCarers @HoCpetitions @mencap_charity @LearningDisEng @DisRightsUK @scope @InclusionNorth @DisabilityNorth @Depheruk Agreed. | 3 |
