Hospitals must be protected. Children must be protected.

We are calling for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire.

Now in Tel Aviv protest against the war and calling for ceasefire

Unless I’m living in an echo chamber, I believe that the majority of the people in the world are calling for a ceasefire, right?

#CeasefireForGazaNOW 🇵🇸

Most foreign doctors in NHS face ‘racist microaggressions’, survey shows…. and yet Steve Barclay wants the NHS to eliminate EDI roles 🤔 theguardian.com/society/2023/n…

Inclusive recovery should not be ‘optional’ good practice, but a critical ‘must do’ for all NHS trusts if we are to tackle health inequalities. Earlier this year, we outlined 10 steps hospitals can take to tackle inequities in elective waiting lists: nhsrho.org/research/the-e…

Some politicians continue to argue that it is 'not the time' for a ceasefire in #Gaza , even with thousands dead.

Shell makes over £2 MILLION in profit every hour.

In the UK, 10 people die in poverty every hour.

Anyone else find that disgusting?

In conflict, civilians always pay the highest price.

War is not the answer.

We need peace.

Peace for the world.

We need peace now.

Every child has the right to grow up free from violence and fear.
Children must be protected -- always.
They are #NotATarget .

Both Conservatives and Labour put high priority on economic growth. I would rather see growth and reduction in inequalities in the height of five-year-old children. That way we will know that we have an economy that is really delivering for the health and wellbeing of all.

It is getting even more impossible to ignore the climate crisis. The fact that people in power still somehow live in denial, and actively move in the wrong direction, will eventually be seen for and understood as the unprecedented betrayal it is. It is just a matter of time.
