Great piece on how Europe needs to become a counterweight to both Trump & Putin and their extreme right-wing policies.

What a thoroughly nasty man Elon Musk is. No-one elected him. He’s just a huge troll sat on a pile of gold, chuckling about what kingdom he can smash up next.

editorial from @bmj.com and paper: Poor staff retention is associated with higher patient mortality. Have said it before & I’ll say it again. If you don’t care for the carers, they cannot care for their patients. www.bmj.com/content/387/...

This is not a farmers tax. This is not a tractor tax. This is a tax on estates worth over £2,000,000 paying 20% on that asset (only over 2mil). There is a reason Jeremy Clarkson called his farm diddly squatt. It's the tax he intends to pay.

Elon Musk just called the COVID-19 pandemic that killed at least 1.4 million Americans a “scamdemic.” My dad died during the pandemic; we weren't able to visit him in the hospital because of it. Every aspect of that horrible tragedy was real. And exacerbated by Musk’s co-POTUS. I’m seeing red. 😡

Trump is such a unique character. Does the fact he can’t run again mean that Republicans will start to rebel? Will his second term end up more like the chaos of the Tories under Johnson, Truss and Sunak?

Don’t you just love it when Mr Austerity himself takes to the stage to lecture the new Labour govt on how they should be clearing up the disgraceful mess left after 14 years of Tory failure, corruption and lies. This guy is literally the political figurehead for ‘wrong choices’.

After trying to see it through the Musk era, I’m wrapping Twitter up over the next week. The aggro & toxicity has all got too much. I did give it my best but it’s started to affect my mental health & the place has been poisoned by racists, anti-LGBT+ nutters & Muskbots. Blue Skies ahead (hopefully!)

A serious🧵here!🤔 Carol Vorderman on X called out those associated with Teesworks. I know the Labour govt is very new & it will take a long while to undo 14 years of Tory harm, however Freeports/SEZ should be on the top of the list! Rachel Reeves needs to act quickly to stop these going any further🤔

"Hospitals and emergency rooms could be forced to ration care by the end of this month, the CDC warned" A new variant plus holiday travel means lots of virus spreading. If you've stopped wearing a mask, or haven't gotten your booster vaccine yet, NOW is the time to start taking precautions again!

This #CovidInquiry is a vital party of democracy - empowering the public to know how their government has functioned during a key national episode. There should also be a #BrexitInquiry for exactly the same reason.
