Maybe the most important part of this- during the next parliament, there will be nearly 1,000,000 people who couldn't vote in 2014 who will now be eligible. I'm one of them. Democracy isn't a one off event, it's a process.

So I googled ‘average hospital maintenance costs’. £4500 per square metre per year. Glasgow’s QE hospital is 170,000 square metres. That must cover more than what’s included in the figure below - because it works out at about that per year - but this story looks like arrant

🧨 3. Starmer’s team is quietly aligning with these deregulatory trade blocs While claiming to “cooperate with the EU,” Starmer is: •Refusing to rejoin the EU’s food safety system •Signing deals with countries that operate on lower standards •Failing to legislate clear

This statement World Food Programme is unbearable to read. The international community must require the Israeli Government to stop these attacks and there must be a ceasefire now to allow humanitarian aid to flow.

Gordon Brown announced HS2 to fanfare in 2009 citing a cost of £20bn. The projected final cost is closer to £100bn and that's for a vastly reduced project. Where is the 'Ferries' style pursuit of Labour and the Tories for this national catastrophe? £billions wasted.

🧵THREAD: The Brexit “reset” is a lie. New EU–UK trade progress is being quietly sabotaged by the UK–US Prosperity Deal — and the EU knows it. Here’s what they’re not telling you: 👇

My letter to UK Gov Minister Steve Reed asking him to retract his false statements about the condition of water in Scotland. IWC was able to report we’re in a much better position than rUk with 87% “high” or “good” status. Public ownership works. scottishgov-newsroom.prgloo.com/correspondence…

If Keir Starmer believes in a respectful relationship with Scottish Government, he needs his Environment Secretary to retract his totally inaccurate comments about Scotland’s water. Our rivers are cleaner, our bills are lower - and public ownership delivers for people, not profit. 👇

My last word on 'Waterlie'. The UK Government know that we rely on our good reputation on water for our whisky industry and tourism but are still quite happy to lie about our water quality to talk down Scotland and oppose nationalisation in England. thenational.scot/politics/25333…

The scenes in Gaza are horrifying to watch. Israel is deliberately starving civilians. Children are dying as food and aid are blocked. Nothing can justify it. Enough is enough. The UK government must force Israel to let aid into Gaza, and the killing must stop. Now.
