Great discussion but there was only very fleeting discussion of the impact on single parents and no firm proposals what more the government should be doing to support them. Can future #coronaconversations focus on that? @Samsmethers @CCriadoPerez @WomensBudgetGrp @SBSisters https://twitter.com/fawcettsociety/status/1249336148108984322">https://twitter.com/fawcettso...

A lot of the response to both the health and economic crisis has been slow to acknowledge the realities / impact on single parents (the vast majority being women).

And I am not sure how the @Commonswomequ inquiry will pick up on the issue of single parents because, of course, being single is not a protected characteristic - though being married or in a civil partnership is.
