Bomb threat called into CAIR-LA building in Anaheim - the same place #Ilhan spoke and was deliberately quoted out of context by #Trump and the right-wing media. Their rhetoric is demonstrably endangering lives and freedoms. latimes.com/local/lanow/la…

NHS waiting times since 2007/8, data via NHS RTT. Another casualty of Tory under-funding, reversal of Labour's 2005 manifesto commitment & funding to tackle waiting times. Follow-up to my earlier tweet about doctors leaving NHS/Medicine. @MattHancock @JonAshworth @NHSMillion

Follow-up, actual investigative journalism courtesy of @Channel4News. We can all agree, whatever side of the Brexit debate you're on, for a democracy to succeed the electorate must be truly informed of the facts, not mislead by #fakenews and soundbites. youtu.be/I_YUtWMlMMA

Outstanding work from Pelosi once again, marginalising the only popular members of the archaic, out of touch, republican-lite centrist group of empty suits that make up the modern democratic party. And heaven forbid you progress some of their wildly popular policy ideas!

@CarolineMack18 @NHSMillion From the very same link, 2nd paragraph. Thank you for proving the point that the NHS is underfunded in a very succinct manner. Most kind.

@NHSMillion Context: Career progression of doctors 2 years post-qualification. Doctors choosing not to specialise in the UK and progress in their careers, instead many are leaving the NHS/medicine entirely to seek a better life. Will lead to huge consultant shortages within 6-10 years.

#ShamimaBegum legal aid is right and proper to allow testing of a (potentially) landmark case re: citizenship revocation. Counterarguments that others are more deserving of the limited legal aid should redirect concerns to the govt which cut the budget for it.

One more time. Everyone is entitled to a defence. You don't want a law only the rich can use. You don't want governments to be free to prosecute the poor without restraint. Why do we even need to say this? thesecretbarrister.com/2019/04/15/sha…

Pelosi et. al happy to pose with #IlhanOmar and others to portray an image of diversity and inclusivity, yet unable to even mention her name when writing a "defence". Fence-sitting only hurts the democrats as a whole.

The rota gaps are too large to sustain, we cannot work more than 24 hours per day anymore. Conditions are so poor in the NHS none of my juniors are interested in staying (vs USA/Aus/NZ) and I can't blame them. Hunt's contract was the last straw for many. @MattHancock @JonAshworth

Destinations of doctors after working in the NHS for 2 years, per year. Left side shows those choosing to progress into speciality training, right shows those disillusioned with crumbling austerity NHS and leaving medicine/UK to work. @CPhilpOfficial - my juniors are gone, help?
