"We remain astonished at what looks, to us, like the Met’s willingness to tolerate conduct that undermines public health and erodes trust in the rule of law. Would they be as shy had you or I broken the law? We rather doubt it." mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…

“We told the DWP and Capita that she couldn’t attend the assessment because of her coma, and were told that if she didn’t attend her PIP application would be cancelled”. Impossibly inhuman responses disabled people face while trying to get financial support. #Dispatches

Rishi Sunak went to California to meet US healthcare bosses. Once they get their hands on the NHS, he'll send the cheques out any time they like, and they'll never leave.

.Keir Starmer says that boycotting Israel is "counterproductive: driving people apart when we should be bringing them together". You know what's really counterproductive and driving people apart? Israel's occupation, ethnic cleansing and apartheid.

Omicron running wild. A Prime Minister knee-deep in scandal. A Chancellor refusing to provide any new financial support. And the doors to the UK Parliament firmly shut for a holiday. A sorry state.

We are DONE! We are overwhelmed NOW! Ignoring and hoping we "get through" does not reassure the 1.4 million NHS staff! Like and RT to show support for your NHS ❤🤙🏼 #Covid_19 #COVID19 #NHS #DowningStreetBriefing

In the middle of a pandemic, our courts have been sending mentally ill & vulnerable to prison - despite not having committed crimes - for sleeping rough, begging & even feeding pigeons: Rona Epstein on the 'inhumanity' of anti-social behaviour laws thejusticegap.com/why-are-the-co…

I witnessed a pack of hounds in pursuit of a hare earlier today. Reported it to the police. Was asked if the people with the pack were travellers. When I replied that they appeared to be from the local hunt, I was firmly told that “Hunts don’t do that.” And there you have it.

@DonnellyStephen This is a pediatrician in Galway speaking👇 Better placed than most to know the score. My kids both just had Covid and my daughter's class is riddled with it. If there are long term consequences, who do we blame. Schools ARE NOT SAFE

In Starmer’s Labour a welcome is given to disaffected hard right wing Tories; Blair gets a knighthood; Corbyn is denied the whip & Laura Pidcock feels she must resign from the NEC. That’s not a legacy; it’s a charge sheet.

NABB is back in the Lords today. It builds hatred of refugees into the fabric of our democracy; it writes race-based tiers of nationality rights into law, which will create another Windrush scandal. ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏼11:30am, Old Palace Yard, Westminster.#CitizenshipIsARight #KillTheBills

Imagine someone taking a large wedge of your money, and passing it on to a third party indiscriminately and without due diligence. And then writing it off. Rishi Sunak has just done that to every tax payer in the UK. Why is he still in a job?

Should all MPs who accepted Russian money be suspended, pending a formal enquiry? #JohnsonOut46

Turns out Boris Johnson was responsible all along for making it as difficult as possible for Ukrainian refugees to seek sanctuary in Britain. Why am I not surprised?

Your energy bills are soaring while gas and oil companies make BILLIONS in super-profits. The answer is simple: lower their profits with a Windfall Tax and use the money raised to lower your bills.

In just 3 weeks time the Tories are hitting you with 2 tax rises 1. A freeze to Personal Tax Allowance (which after inflation is a huge cut) 2. An increase in your National Insurance Tax On the exact same day, they’re collecting a £2,000 pay rise for themselves.
