Our NHS is not for sale. Trade talks with Trump must not open the door to US healthcare profiting from our NHS. Keir Starmer must protect our NHS by keeping it off the table during deal negotiations. Join me by adding your name to 38 Degrees’ petition: 38d.gs/TrumpxNHSBS

I find it deeply odd…. That some people (mostly men) Need a leader to follow To practically worship Some dude you will defend with blind loyalty when you know they cross a line That isn’t a sign of strength …but of innate insecurity & weakness But hey, you do you.

Kier Starmer: unleash AI Me: no thanks. Unleash the humans by creating more human centred and human-scale organisations, especially public services. We need human-driven tech, not tech-driven humans.

Rishi Sunak, who promised a new era of “accountability” and insisted that “transparency is really important for the healthy functioning of democracy,” has now placed his ongoing financial interests behind an opaque arrangement designed to hide them from public view bylinetimes.com/2024/12/03/r...

I still can’t get over this data point. “Annual accounts for the DHSC in January showed that nearly three-quarters of the money it spent on PPE during the pandemic had been written off.”

You can rightly deplore the venal charlatans who sold us this economic suicide, but I also now blame everyone in our political class, including those in government, who continue to bury their heads in the sand and insist we cannot reverse this most catastrophically stupid error. Shame on them all.

My hot take; we only have to ask, why would Putin stop at Ukraine if he's not stopped there? We've already seen that no resistance to taking Crimea led to the invasion of Ukraine. Belarus is effectively already his vassal, and obviously he'd want the Baltics, especially Lithuania, for Kaliningrad.

This is an astonishing failure both in public health messaging and in NHS management and in medical personnel failing to “lead by example”. And truly awful from GPs who should know better. No wonder Long Covid is getting such poor attention.

Oh come on Labour - so depressing to hear Pat McFadden say UK has no plans for a youth mobility scheme with the EU. We have schemes with NZ, Australia, Canada, Japan, Iceland, Uruguay & more - only reason not to have one with EU is fear of right wing press. Such cowardice @bbclaurak.bsky.social
