I will just point out the Doctors have asked for a maximum of £800m, that's for 71,000 doctors who run all the hospitals. That's 'too expensive'. But when the Water Companies asked for £5bn, they were given it. Broken Britain, money for thieves, no money for you.

Left: Wes Streeting launches a scathing attack on doctors after they vote to strike, his rant is full of half truths and outright lies Right: Dr Andrew Meyerson who is an A&E doctor explains what the actual problems are, and the reasons behind the strike You can either trust the politician, or the person who will help you when you fall ill or have an injury My vote is for @AndrewMeyerson and every other doctor out there 👍

I want to say something many will hate but it needs to be said. I have met Nigel Farage. I do not know him well but I know the world he moves in. We move in similar circles sometimes. The kind of private rooms and members clubs that most people in Britain will never see. I know how the rich speak about ordinary people. They laugh. They joke about how easy it is to wind you up. They know exactly which buttons to press. They know you are angry and tired and struggling and they know you want someone to blame. That is why they point at boats while they pick your pockets. I did not grow up rich. I did not grow up in privilege. I understand struggle and the real world. But my life changed and now I see both sides. I sit with billionaires and politicians and decision makers and I hear conversations you never will. I know the truth. They do not care about you. They do not care about your future. They care about profit and control. They see ordinary people as tools or distractions. I am telling you this because I am tired of watching good people being manipulated. Look at your life before Brexit and look at it now. Look at your shopping bills. Look at what food costs in Europe right now. Look at how much tax you pay on imports. Look at your wages and energy prices and mortgages. Look at the 10,000 NHS staff we lost when freedom of movement ended. Look at the ambulances that do not arrive. Look at nurses and teachers using food banks. Tell me honestly. Are you better off? Nigel helped build the crisis you are living in. Then he pointed at immigrants and told you to blame them. That is the con. He pulled the UK out of the Dublin III agreement which means we cannot return asylum seekers to Europe anymore. He created the boat chaos then told you to panic about it. Someone who worked in immigration for more than ten years told me they saw it coming. It was planned. It is a strategy. And you are falling for it. Now he wants austerity again. He wants to cut wages for young people. He wants to rip up workers rights. He wants private health insurance and a French style NHS where the rich get treated first and the poor get nothing. He wants you fighting each other so you never see who is robbing you. If you vote for him you are voting to destroy your own life. Not mine. Yours. None of this affects me personally. I drink champagne with the people who control the money. I will be fine no matter what. Reform will not hurt me. Reform will hurt you. It will hurt your children. Your parents. Your future. I am telling you because I care. If I did not care I would stay silent and watch you suffer. You think I am your enemy because I make you uncomfortable. I am not. Your enemy is the one who lies to you and blames the vulnerable while he empties your pockets. Reform will not save you. Reform will finish you. Think. Before they take everything. 💷🇬🇧☕️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🫖

BREAKING: The U.S. Secret Service has shut down access to the park where journalists are filming the White House East Wing demolition. Trump doesn’t want you to see this. Keep sharing.

Donald Trump just did something truly awful and is hoping you won't notice. He fired all of the special education staff at the Department of Education. What kind of person abandons kids with special needs?

Feels especially poignant being at Essex @catsprotection this morning after my beloved cat of 17 years, Henry, passed away on Monday. Too many ppl buying designer cats when many are awaiting new homes in rescue centres across the UK. Important message = adopt don’t buy! 🐈 @gmb

There's always been a fight over the true story of America. I believe deeply in the story that says we’re all created equal, and that if we can treat each other with decency and respect, all of us will be better off.

“I’ve watched men bleed out in the Ardennes for a flag you’re not fit to hold, let alone wrap yourself in. You think bluster is bravery? I led men through hell. You couldn’t march through rain without whining about your hair. You dodged the draft, praised dictators, and called that strength. I stared down Rommel’s panzers and pissed in the Rhine. You ran from bone spurs and hid behind Twitter like a spoiled child playing general. You talk about purging patriots and jailing dissenters? That’s not power. That’s cowardice in a cheap suit and a clip-on tie. I fought Nazis. You invite them. I liberated camps. You threaten to build new ones. I defended democracy with a .45 and a tank. You disgrace it with a pen and a podium. So let’s be clear, sunshine: if you’d stood in front of me in ’44 spewing this treasonous filth, I’d have court-martialed you so fast your gold toilet would’ve flushed itself. You’re a disgrace to the presidency and this Republic. And if you keep dragging this country toward dictatorship, history won’t salute you—it’ll spit.” ~ Army staff sergeant who fought in World War Il, shared by Vets Against Trump

As a GP, I am not allowed to receive a pen or post-it note pad from a pharmaceutical company rep The Government banned them in case I was influenced to prescribe a certain medication This should also be banned @wesstreeting unless you have a way to justify this?

This Trump Corruption List is nowhere near comprehensive. That's exactly the problem. I'm going to continue doing everything I can, every single day to rein in this corrupt president. And dangerous Administration. I know you will, too.

IF, this were true, and I'd bet it isn't, most people already make below $200K, which Biden's tax cut covered. The strategy trump is using will cost all consumers about $4K MORE a year because we are paying for the tariffs. The US cannot charge another country for tariffs. If Columbia ships coffee to us and we put a tariff on that coffee, the company buying the coffee in the US pays that tariff to the US government. It doesn’t cost Columbia anything. The company who bought the coffee must then decide whether to pay the tariff out of its profits or pass the cost of the tariff on to US consumers. The only possible harm to Columbia would be if the tariff is so high that the US quit buying coffee because it’s too expensive. Tariffs have been tried three times in American history, and each time the result was disastrous for the US, not for the foreign countries. We do in fact have a large trade deficit with Columbia because we import a billions of dollars of coffee from Columbia because we can’t grow coffee. Result = a trade deficit. Ultimately, the tariffs that the US companies pay will become a tax on American consumers.

The studies on the mice were for: Immune response to an HIV vaccine; how gender-affirming hormone therapy impacts breast cancer risk; how testosterone might affect fertility and the impact on gut microbiome; whether the estrogen hormone contributes to asthma in women! RESEARCH!

1st world problems I know, but @GAILsBakery why do you never have your almond croissants in your Cambridge stores? They are the best almond croissants but you only ever have chocolate and almond! So many special trips wasted to get them!

Donald trump says a lot of things that he later backs away from, and nobody holds him accountable for. For instance, he said he would build a wall and make Mexico pay for it. Never happened. He said he'd have a replacement for Obamacare “in two weeks.” Never happened. He said if he lost the 2020 election to Joe Biden, he'd leave America. Never happened. And when challenged to debates earlier this year, he said “Any time, any place.” But now he's scrambling for reasons to AVOID debating Kamala Harris. Time after time, trump just says whatever is on his diseased, demented mind, and the press fails to question it, or hold him to account. Then his followers all clamor to explain “what he really meant to say is…” while deflecting by spinning a bunch of whataboutisms. For a person whose followers like him because he “says what he means,” it's clear that what he says is meaningless. For now, until the press steps up, we're going to keep calling out his cowardly bullshit to make sure everyone knows #ChickenTrump is a COWARD.

Johnson’s cabinet members seemed to have been picked for “allegiance to Brexit” rather than competence. (You could argue there’s a reverse correlation between those two). So, it’s a good thing that few have survived.

I hope the media will ask themselves why they were so supine about Brexit before the EU ref and didn't hold Brexiters to account
