'I made it clear for Israelis: Don't move on Haifa'

US President Joe Biden mistakenly said Haifa instead of Rafah while stating that he called the Israeli occupation not to invade Rafah.

Shock as Government that allowed mass infection whilst stripping #NHS bare realises this has a negative impact on the health of the population...

Of course, this clearly is the fault of the patients, so let's deprive them of cash during a self-inflicted cost of living crisis 💔

On the day Sunak proposes a state sanctioned war on the most vulnerable in the country Akshata Murty in line for multimillion-pound Infosys payout! #ChronicIllness #MentalHealthIllness #ToriesOut

Call it what you will, but this is now a state sanctioned war on the most vulnerable in the country

Our PM does not understand the collateral damage done to people from long covid (HIS fault) or mental health worries over money (HIS policies)

What a vile heinous man he is

‘The last Labour government introduced “fit notes” rather than “sicknotes” in 2010 to put a new emphasis on doctors certifying what patients are able to do, rather than what they cannot.’ #ME patients, prepare to sew soccer balls with your teeth. theguardian.com/politics/2024/…

There are more billionaires than ever before. They are richer than ever before. The need to tax the super-rich has never been so pressing. It's time the #G20 takes a transformative leap forward with a global minimum tax on billionaires. #TaxTheSuperRich

‘The story became not #MECFS patients are being very badly served by the current state of medical science - which is obviously the story - instead the story became, these poor scientist are being threatened and abused by ungrateful #MECFS patients’ - George Monbiot

There are dozens of terrible things the Tories have done to all of us

But the deliberate destruction of our NHS - the most precious thing we have - is by far the worst

They deserve never to be in power again

Reminder: In 2010 the NHS had its highest ever public approval rating

Two days after the Wessely right of reply article in The Scotsman, three critical letters about the piece are printed. #cfs #cfs me #mecfs #myalgice #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis #chronicfatiguesyndrome .

Pathetic, immoral and spineless drivel from the UK at the UN. Shame on you David Cameron & Rishi Sunak! The slaughter of yet more innocent Palestinian will be what history remembers you for.

Here's today's Channel 5 News segment on #SaveCarlasLife #ExposeMENow - thanks to Steve Topple's steady hand and phone...

Fascinating listening to davidtuller interview journalist George Monbiot about his Long-Covid experience and journey of discovery in ME/CFS and the bad-science that is sometimes promoted eg that he was part responsible for spreading LongCovid by writing about it. Bad psychiatry

🧵of clips George Monbiot talking to davidtuller about his recent article where he describes the psychologisation and treatment of #MECFS as 'the greatest medical scandal of the 21st century.'

UPDATE 6pm 18/4 #SaveCarlasLife :

Thanks to YOU - yes, ALL of YOU - Carla's dad has been able to block the door window off AND neurology will be seeing Carla first thing tomorrow.

This is thanks to the community's action. Not us, not a charity - YOU. Remember that #ExposeMENow

Christ, Biden has totally lost it

New episode of Post-Exertional Mayonnaise out now. I loved this conversation and I hope you find it helpful. Dr Speight explains the history of ME and why we are still fighting a battle against disbelief. #MyalgicE

Two things:

PLEASE everyone tune into Channel 5 from 5pm for 5NEWS as the amazing Ruth Liptrot report on #SaveCarlasLife #ExposeMENow should be on it.

Second, we have taken the decision to share another video of Carla which we want everyone to see. It will be live in 10 mins.

Anyone who hasn’t seen this yet, do so as soon as you have the energy. These two men davidtuller & George Monbiot dissect the cause of the media coverage of #ME from deep knowledge and address the situation today. Grateful tears.

My message about the treatment of Severe ME patients in NHS hospitals: patients, families, carers feel stuck between a rock and a hard place.
