RFK Jr is wrong about restricting childhood covid vaccine availability. If you're reading this, do not trust anything RFK Jr says. Trust the published scientific evidence and the consensus opinion of vaccine experts. Your children deserve the best, not pseudo-science. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/w...

You receive a call on your phone. The caller says they're from your bank and they're calling about a suspected fraudulent payment. "Oh yeah," you think. Obvious scam, right? The caller says "I'll send you an in-app notification to prove I'm calling from your bank." 🧵 1/4

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will direct federal health agencies to explore potential new treatments for measles as the U.S. faces its largest outbreak in 25 years. Experts fear the decision could have grave consequences, as studies show the existing vaccine is 97% effective in preventing infection.

Since the election win Labour have 1. Appeased the far right 2. Delivered otherwise good policy ideas in a bad way e.g. WFA 3. Targeted the disabled with cuts instead of the richest with a wealth tax The result? 808 Reform councillors Labour need to change direction and be less cruel, fast

I feel increasingly disconnected from the party I voted for and had such high hopes for. Did we give them a mandate to cos-play Reform-lite? I want them to lead and argue for their vision instead of chasing polls. Oh and charge me more income tax instead of penalising kids & disabled people

THREAD: The Trump administration's DOJ has removed a study from the NIJ website that found that immigrants, and particularly undocumented immigrants, commit crimes at significantly lower rates than U.S. citizens. The study is at odds with the Trump regime's propaganda about immigrants & crime. (1)

We often look back on the seminal moments in our history and wonder "What would I have done?" This is our moment. This is our time. We must stand up. We must speak out. We must do everything we can to stop a President who has every intention of destroying our democracy.

We fight to give hope — a reminder that there are still those within the government standing up for what’s right. Since Saturday, we’ve faced relentless attacks. We know there will be consequences for our actions, but we will not back down.

My God. ICE wrongfully arrested a man while his 5-year-old autistic child sat in the backseat—and shipped him off to an El Salvador prison. No due process. Now the Trump administration claims they can’t get him back. How many more? THIS NEEDS TO BE A BIGGER STORY.

Thames Water have had a £3bn loan approved. Their debts will now cost them £900m a year in interest, which is where one third of your water bill goes. Yet they managed to pay shareholders £158m in dividends last year. Someone ought to nationalise the greedy fuckers…

NHS waiting lists fell for the 4th month in a row in December, despite the usual extra pressure seen during winter and a significant increase in the number of people in hospital with flu. This is really good news and exactly what Labour promised they would do when they got into power.
