Today Boris Johnson offered an apology, but he caveated it with the words ‘hindsight’ & claims he saved thousands of lives- for many of the covid bereaved that was a ‘grotesque distortion of the truth’- his evidence continues tomorrow UK Covid-19 Inquiry

Time for action not words Humza Yousaf lift crown immunity Scottish Prison Service

I am not sure someone with such a bad memory should be in such a serious job.

“How dare we have a conversation about trade when there are children right now being treated without anaesthetic.” Dr Myriam François rips Western hypocrisy as US-UK bombs rain on the poorest country in the world, Yemen, while there is a genocide in Gaza.

God love you William, what chance did you have? 💔 ⁦Humza Yousaf⁩ this is your prison service bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotla…

Prof Devi Sridhar in response to question by our KC Dr Claire Mitchell KC today UK Covid-19 Inquiry “I think the biggest mistake was around testing & …we didn't have a testing strategy, capacity, capabilities.… NHS Scotland, they didn't have adequate PPE..”

Will leave more controversial aspects of Inquiry to others but respect to Prof. Devi Sridhar as below for all she's said,done and endured.Such clarity again yesterday on the need for maximum suppression until vaccines and treatments available and surely a lesson for future pandemics.

“Israel is bombing Lebanon, Syria and Gaza, and you’re worrying about Yemen interfering with ships?” “Israel has killed 30,000 Palestinians. The Yemenis have killed nobody.” —Irish MEP Mick Wallace blasting the EU for its hypocrisy. 🔥🔥🔥

Today we’ll hear evidence from Liz Lloyd -Fmr Chief of Staff to Former FM Nicola Sturgeon at 10am, followed at 2pm by First Minister Humza Yousaf 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿The Scottish Covid Bereaved have fought for the truth, they were promised it & deserve nothing less UK Covid-19 Inquiry

Jason Leitch “strictly speaking it was breaking the rules, but…” Covid-19 does not do nuance, it is a virus and follows rules (think IPC) namely #CovidIsAirborne - drink in hand will not stop transmission Humza Yousaf.

Now this is the story people should be talking about.

The parents of Katie Allan, who took her own life in Polmont over 5 years ago, have been the voice for so many, whose names we do not know, whose cries went unheard in our dungeons of despair💔-as the joint FAI draws to a close, an interview with Catriona Renton

Tonight BBC Disclosure 8pm, “head of Scottish Prison Service has said the jails are too full & she may soon have to say "enough is enough, we cannot take any more" -We fight on for justice for Katie Allan, William Lindsay, Calum Inglis, Conor McHugh bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…

Absolutely sickening how many kids have been killed

Councils (looking at budgets) might cut library services & hours. This would be a tragedy. Libraries offer free books, study spaces & access to computers/wifi. As a kid then teen, I spent hours & hours each week in my local library- wouldn’t have managed my education otherwise.

4 yrs ago today the first Covid death in Britain was reported. Now when you hear Johnson⏬️& you know what came after with parties & Tory PPE deals, & before in govt unpreparedness, you realise what an utterly appalling bunch of charlatans had been voted in Stefan Simanowitz

Nine years 💔 Sheku Bayoh Inquiry Sheku Bayoh Justice Campaign #BlackLivesMatter

We have spent 6 years campaigning on this issue. It has got worse. The current suicide prevention strategy Scottish Prison Service is not fit for purpose. The lack of information sharing between NHS and SPS staff is often a contributing factor. Almost all these deaths are avoidable.
