Medics, PH doctors, scientists don't want lockdown either. We want to see our families and holiday too. This mess is the result of the government's choice to line incompetent, unqualified private pockets rather than fund effective public services (both long term and during covid)

I hope you’ll stick with me, and lend your support to what I’m hoping to do now - totally change how we deliver healthcare for complex young adults in the UK. Because if there’s any time I need you all, it’s now. We deserve better. And I can’t do this on my own. 3/3

My daughter needs to apply for a postal vote. Goes onto the council website to discover that she can't do this online - she needs to print a form and post it. Fortunately we have a printer. Unfortunately the address to post it to hidden behind a broken page link...

Timpsons should be running the country.
Replying to @JamesTCobbler
I’ve mentioned this in the past: someone once commented that Timpson’s were too expensive. I made them aware of how the company looks after their employees. Didn’t furlough anyone through the pandemic. Employ ex offenders plus many more benefits. I’d pay extra for that any day.

Liz Truss: an utterly dismal prime minister. Insanely arrogant. Dangerously ideological. Wildly irresponsible. And startlingly delusional. And now the tragic Torygraph prints her 4000 word whingefest about what’s to blame for her failure. Apparently, it’s not her. Just fuck off.

Shell just reported record profits of £32,000,000,000 Such outrageous profits are why your bills are so high. We need to hike the Windfall Tax so North Sea oil and gas giants don't make a single penny in excess profits off the back of higher energy bills for ordinary people.

The Princess of Wales looks to be launching a sincere & thoughtful campaign, but it's kind of wild that Sure Start was an evidence-based solution to the problems she's raising, was evaluated and found to be wonderfully successful, and we're sort of pretending it wasn't cut.

Tulip Sadiq asks the prime minister about the welfare of 200 unaccompanied migrant children who’ve gone missing. Tory MP Jonathan Gullis heckles ā€˜well they shouldn’t have come here illegally’. Just when you think you’ve heard it all, the Tory Party find a new low #PMQs

A pay rise in line with inflation for ALL public sector workers would cost around an extra £12-15bn. An annual 1.5% tax on any wealth above £5m would raise £16bn. We can afford to give people a proper pay rise. The Tories' refusal to do so is a political choice.

Wow. Read the MP's reply in the screenshot.
I'm so concerned about the #NHSCrisis that I wrote to my MP Philip Davies asking him to urge the government to act, particularly on social care. I thought the voters of #Bingley #Saltaire & #Shipley would like to read his response and I do hope they remember it at the next GE.

Bosses at Britain's biggest companies have already been paid more in 2023 than the average UK worker will get all year. Don't believe the lies that there's no money for pay rises for workers. There's plenty of wealth in our society. It's just in the wrong hands.
