Slashing aid isn’t just cruel—it’s reckless. From active conflict zones to developing nations, these cuts weaken peacebuilding and hand influence to Russia and China. Security means tackling cyber threats, pandemics, and the climate crisis, not just spending on bombs and guns.

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

Trump announces US withdrawal from World Health Organization. Blames WHO for mishandling COVID-19 pandemic. US had 1.2m deaths, due to poverty, inequalities and a healthcare system that favours profits over people. Chance of co-ordinated approach to next pandemic? edition.cnn.com/2025/01/21/p...

Dear BlueSkyers. Sadly I'm getting many reports of scammers pretending to be me here, incl messaging people with 'investments' . Pls share/help me spread word that, as you know, THIS IS MY ONLY BLUE SKY account (proved as my handle is an official MoneySavingExpert one). All others are scams

To sue for defamation, Liz Truss has to show "serious harm" (section 1 of the Defamation Act). The more you retweet this the easier it will be for her to show serious harm leaving her nowhere to hide when she doesn't. You know what to do!

Andy Burnham, "I have called for a major program of council house building, different to social housing" "If you allow councils to build homes that people can truly afford, that gives them more control over the housing situation in their areas" Well said @andyburnham.bsky.social 👏

Come on Labour, cut your ties to Twitter. Delete all your accounts and instruct all government departments to do the same. You should not be supporting a hate filled divisive site like that.

The astonishing cognitive dissonance of a health secretary who insists he'll save the NHS - yet kicks the social care crisis into touch until 2028. 1 in 8 medically fit NHS patients cannot leave hospital for lack of social care. Of course A&E is overwhelmed 🤷‍♀️ www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Happy Sunday lovely phone family. We've had a smattering of snow here ❄️ Anyone else? The gap between the poorest and richest in society has become a huge chasm. I hope future generations change this for the better, but for now we have to stand together ❤️ Have a great day 😘 #HaveCourageAndBeKind 🥰

"There is no solution to the crisis in the NHS that doesn’t include a solution for social care." Dismayed to see Wes Streeting acknowledge this - yet kick the issue into long grass with a commission that won't report until 2028. What hope for the NHS now? What hope for those needing care now?

This is Reform UK treasurer Nick Candy, appointed by Nigel Farrage. Nick Candy boasted to a FT journalist in 2010 "I don't pay tax!" (From his home in Monaco) He and his brother developed property in London through an offshore company to avoid tax. Patriotic? Anti-Establishment? It's a con.

This is a reminder, that now, under Labour and @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social - 20% of NHS funding (from us the tax payer) - gets rediverted to the private sector. In return they see 10% of patients (the simplest cases no less). This is not a good business model. www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

It remains to be seen whether Reform actually has 131,000 members, & if so how many of these are in the UK. But it's not impossible given that an estimated 10% of Britons fell victim to online scams in 2022-23. Fools & their money are easily parted.

I seem to have upset the Nigel Farage fan club - so let me be clear. This man sows hate, lies and division. He is a grifter and a conman. He does not represent the vast majority of Britons. Repost if you agree P.s. multiculturalism is great.
