An estimated 30,000 people at Trafalgar Square for the vigil for #JasonArday. Hard to hear the speakers, but one said -
Jason’s legacy must be one of change and hope. Otherwise, who are we?

I'm devastated for the family and friends of Jason Arday.
He faced an unacceptable public hounding and campaign of abuse. I know many Londoners will be angry and upset this evening.
Jason Arday was the victim of a pernicious public shaming that other people in his position simply wouldn’t have faced.
His death was a tragedy, but once again it should be a wake up call for all of us.
I only knew him through his delicate, nuanced @BBCRadio4 series “Beyond Lonely”. This is awful news. RIP #JasonArday

"When people talk about the need for Black Excellence I counter with an insistence on Black mediocrity: the right for black people to be as average, flawed, compromised & mistaken as any other group of people. The right, ultimately, to be human." R.I.P. Jason Arday

Four seconds of silence before Louise Casey answers @Emmabarnett ‘s Q on whether @metpoliceuk has made any progress on subduing its misogyny, racism & homophobia #SarahEverard @BBCr4today
"Do I think it's enough? ... No I don't."
@Emmabarnett asks Dame Louise Casey, who led a report into the Metropolitan Police, if she agrees with the commissioner that progress has been made after the murder of Sarah Everard.
Instead of running to the edges, us & them, good & evil, @monasiddiqui7 talks about the discipline of law, even in war. “Laws & rules are there to help us see the humanity of our enemies, and to do this isn’t a weakness - it’s our biggest strength.” bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0n4jb…
