This quote from Robin Cook, a month before he died, is enough to move you to tears when you survey the wreckage of the last 13 years and ponder the prospect of another Labour government again blowing the opportunity of saving us from the horrors of first-past-the-post.

"The best diet in the world is the one you can tolerate, sustain, and afford. Until the day we bring affordability to a uniform level, judging others is futile and a whole lot of wasted time" Via The BMJ bmj.com/content/364/bm…

Average house price today: £285,000 Average salary today: £26,000 Multiple : 11x House price 1993: £56,500 Salary 1993: £17,800 Multiple : 3.2x To those saying “oh we survived higher interest rates in the 90s” : YOUR house price was NOT 11 times your salary! #InterestRate

I am part of that generation. We had affordable house prices, no student debt, job security, decent pensions, North Sea oil, and more. Your revisionist view, focusing on a very temporary 16% interest rate, is as disingenuous as it is stupid.

7 years ago today at the age of 19, I voted remain in the EU Referendum. I wasn't taken in by promises of Sunlit Uplands, boom times, cheap food, cheap fuel or £350m for the NHS. I feel exactly the same now. Leaving the EU was suicide. All so the rich could pay less tax

“Hate?” Sorry which public opinion poll where demonstrates “hatred” for the NHS? This headline is such inaccurate, over-heated, gratuitous clickbait.

Rishi Sunak has decided that the £14.9bn of PPE fraud cannot be investigated and has written it all off. This is fraud, theft, corruption on a ridiculous scale. RT if you think Treason charges for all those in involved need to be brought including those who cover it up.

Well done Stephen Fry for simply being honest about Brexit

Head of Oxford Council on the local news "For every £100 the Council spends, £85 is on Adult and Children's Social Care, leaving £15 for all our other commitments" Bearing in mind Oxford is fairly affluent and young, this illustrates just what local authorities are up against

I keep hearing of Nursing Associates replacing Registered Nurses, being offered specialist RN courses etc. How have we allowed this to happen? Why are nursing leaders complicit in this? How are Uni's allowing NAs to do specialist RN courses? Nursing and Midwifery Council

When voting in 5 days, please remember that under the Tories: Don’t get old. Don’t get sick. Don’t get disabled. Don’t get unemployed. Don’t get zero hours contracted. Don’t get poor. Don’t get unlucky. Don’t get vulnerable. Don’t get ideas above your station.

24 hours until polling stations open. #LetTheBodiesPileHigh #Partygate #LestWeForget

The polls are tomorrow. Here's a final message from me. The Tories do not deserve your vote. They have broken our NHS. They partied whilst we couldn't see our loved ones. They have filled our beautiful seas with sewage. Vote. Them. Out.

Please read our The Times and The Sunday Times letter about what dying is typically like. It would be so easy to fear from the examples cited in the assisted dying debate that horrific death is the norm. It isn't - really. Between us we have >300 yrs of combined experience treating dying people.

I've written about what dying typically looks like - not as a 'pro' or 'anti' AD piece, but in the spirit of confronting a taboo. We've lost the easy familiarity with the patterns of dying that existed when death typically occurred in people’s own homes. Let's talk about it 🙏

A pretty damning first five years of Brexit, quantified here rather neatly.

Wow. This post from a Ukrainian soldier says it all.

Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't want you to know the name of her opponent but will try every desperate attempt to save her seat. My name is Shawn Harris. I am a Democrat, husband, father, retired General, farmer, and I'm running against MTG. Can you retweet and spread the word?
