I think you're right and husband is getting a job. They'll frame it as 'twins getting older, starting school, time is right' but actually cost of living probably creeping up for them too (like it is everyone) and the 'influencing' career is not quite as lucrative or reliable as it once was.Wonder what her big life change is that she alluded to. A house move? Husband getting a job cos the twins will be starting school in September?
Neither of them could POSSIBLY look after their own offspringI'm so confused! Why does she need childcare when the father is a stay at home parent?? They would both get 15 hours a week free too so why do they need extra?
Her eldest is 12!! She's really bending the facts there, I do support her point childcare is so expensive but yeah she could have explained that better.In the comments she says 26k is from when her eldest was little and they were both working full time. They way she's presented it is in the reel is a bit disingenuous. I think it would have more impact for the campaign to say we could only make childcare work financially if one of us have up our job rather than try to join the bandwagon of sharing high childcare costs when they haven't been using it to the same extent.
But this comment is like saying I just donāt see colour!, a comment that is outdated as it didnāt acknowledge the issue. We need to āsee colour, as otherwise white people donāt see or acknowledge their privilege.I'm sorry but this really irritates me. Why is every time a 'person of colour' is involved that racism is brought into it?? You CANNOT chose a pm based on his/her colour it isn't about that! Its based on how well they could potentially help the country recover etc. (Whether he will be good I have no idea) sharing stuff calling people 'people of colour' only causes more issues. Why do we have celebrate because it was a non white person? Isn't that causing divide making out that we didn't elect him cus of racism?? It couldn't possibly be because people didn't notice his colour....and just generally thought he wasn't the person for the job?? The more we don't categorise people as people of colour and just treat them as a person with no skin colour the less this whole racism thing will be an issue. It just causes more divide!
I have to disagree. I don't look at someone and think black person, its just a person? I mean that as I don't judge who they are by colour I don't say yay a white person is pm! Nor do I say the same as a black. Its constantly putting them into a category. We all want equality and rightly so, so why can't we all just be just that? A person, with no definition to what colour/race we are.But this comment is like saying I just donāt see colour!, a comment that is outdated as it didnāt acknowledge the issue.

Thereās a ton of articles about why this isnāt a helpful narrative, written by people of colour. I changed my thinking as a white person, after reading them.I have to disagree.
