I agree with Zack, RT if you do too!
🛑 Enough is enough! It’s absolutely outrageous that Asda is shipping in lamb from the other side of the world—Australia and New Zealand—while our own hardworking British farmers are left out in the cold. We need to stand up and say we want British lamb on those shelves! 🇬🇧🐑…
So let me get this straight. Victim of the post office scandal Janet Skinner is offered just 15% of her compensation claim. Yet the disgraceful human that is Paula Vennells walks away with £millions in bonus payments. Disgusting. #PostOfficeScandal #Newsnight
102,000 hairdressers in England with 40,000 salons 27,000 GPs with 6200 Surgeries 31 million people visit GPs every month, a similar number have haircuts. In can see some issues with this comparison. Not sure anyone died if they got the wrong haircut.
Keep signing, keep sharing. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/7301…
Better advisors needed @wesstreeting If you are going to tell the public that there are more GPs, they are rightly going to expect their local practice to have more access Sadly the way GPs have been recruited isn’t leading to more appts or more GPs
This is an extremely significant research report setting out the scale of the rip off of privatisation. £200 billion paid to shareholders that should have been invested in the services.

Nothing screams “Mandelson-brokered deal” like auctioning off our values to BlackRock & Palantir for £150bn and a handshake with Trump. If investment comes at the price of our values, it’s not a bargain. It’s a bribe.
Don’t ever get used to how brutal this world is, how malign the intentions of our governments towards their own electorate are. This anti-governance is not normal, don’t get used to it. The older generation have lived through truly socialist governments, they have experienced…
There is gross mismanagement of NHS spending. We spend £1.3bn on management consultants annually with no evidence they help. Services are increasingly outsourced to private providers, which are more expensive and have no regulation. The NHS is being intentionally dismantled.
The new NHS Trust league tables are a new and clever way for politicians to point fingers and cast blame, without creating real solutions.
Since midday yesterday UK time Israel has been randomly detaining hundreds of adult men in the streets of the West Bank town of Tulkarm. Social media is swamped with extraordinary images. Not a single UK news outlet reporting it.

Striking off a company means its debts are never paid. His partner purchased a £885,000 home in cash. Here she is refusing to pay £11,000 The Sunak's had £600,000,000 and they used this same con to save themselves £300,000. This needs to be stopped.
“If you don't say yes now, it could mean you don't get your career later.” Dr Kelly Gurnett sends a message to FY1s in England about why it’s so important to make your voice heard. bma.org.uk/our-campaigns/… #PayRestoration #EndTrainingCrisis
Privatisation of the NHS. Govt asks private finance investors about backing 200 neighbourhood health centres. PFI is a disaster. Guarantees corporate profits. £1 investment, £6 repayment. Higher taxes, bigger govt debt. Cheaper for govt to build. archive.ph/sD9py
Paris took back control of its water from private profiteers in 2010. 💧 Now they have affordable bills, free water fountains, high customer satisfaction and safe swimming in the Seine. ✅ Public ownership is the only way this happens. Let's make it happen here! Join us to…
Holding govts to ransom. US drugmaker Merck scraps £1bn UK research centre, cuts 125 jobs. Big pharma it wants higher drugs prices for the NHS and profits. Consequence of oligopolies and corporate power. Govt should start manufacture of generic drugs. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
Tesco could pay every worker an extra £10,000 and still make a profit. British Gas could pay every worker an extra £35,000 and still make a profit. Shell could pay every worker an extra £300,000 and still make a profit. It is the billionaires who are ripping you off.
‘Bringing back the Family Doctor’ - just a political slogan @wesstreeting 2 GP practices closing every week GP Partnerships threatened with more NI costs Failure to increase funding over 10yrs means £168/patient/year funds all services, £35 less than if kept with inflation
