Dear Conservatives, 13 years ago you inherited the #1 ranked healthcare system on the planet and look what you've done: We now have the longest GP, A&E, cancer, and outpatient waiting lists in NHS history. 7.7m people long. You don't deserve power. You deserve prison. #SOSNHS

Having your opinion valued is a love language for people healing from trauma.

#Reform activist uses racial slurs & suggests migrants should be shot. There's a long history of racism & fascism in this country. Let's put it behind us & never go back there. Not now, not in 5 years' time should Reform or Farage continue to gain momentum. No one should be
