#Nye National Theatre - powerful, unexpected elements, educational, inspiring & I was really moved in the last moments of the play. Be awed at the very existence of the NHS. Be stunned & proud of the sheer bravery, audacity & compassion that created & sustains it. #MichaelSheen

A poignant parallel from Zelensky tonight: Israel isn’t a NATO member and yet its allies united to defend it against the same Iranian drones launched at Ukraine.

He asks - why hasn’t his country had the same level of support?

'Like a parish council' is said as a slur. Yet in this, the ever insightful Margaret Heffernan - who sits on her PC - explains why it works and why organisations with far more power and cash could learn from them. Respect, fairness and skin in the game form part of the secret sauce

Creating a ' gap in the given'

One of the main reasons renewable energy is going to triumph in the end is, IMO, not well understood by the general populace, so here's a quick 🧵on it.

I have been led to understand that NHS England has not even carried out an Equality Impact Assessment of this cut to a specific mental health service for staff, despite this being a legal duty.

Perhaps they can confirm publicly?

So taken with Ed Miliband here that we're posting this twice.

There HAVE been good Conservatives on climate - John Deben Sir Alok Sharma Chris Skidmore but the present regime are climate crisis deniers. And Susan Hall AM would be a disaster for London.

Keep the passion Ed!

People need to understand that Israel *does not* need to retaliate. Iran's action was a telegraphed response to Israel's bombing of its consulate, which killed 16 people and violated the Vienna Convention. Iran says they now consider the matter closed. Israel must de-escalate.

'It was a trick that was well known in the 14th and 15th century...'

Here's an expert look at how Picasso created Guernica, his 1937 monochrome anti-war masterpiece.

📺 Watch Picasso: The Beauty and the Beast on BBC iPlayer.

This bill is barbaric and immoral. It must be scrapped.

Delighted to see NHS England & Dr Navina Evans U-turn on their appalling decision to cut NHS Practitioner Health mental health support for hospital doctors.

The 16k responses to our open letter of protest were crystal clear - this service is vital & necessary.

Cut it at your peril. 1/2

I see this has resurfaced tonight.

⚡️This is in Wycombe organised by SteveBakerWatch but it would be true in many constituencies across the country. Rishi Sunak s government doesn't deny the science but by denying the urgency, it puts our future in doubt.

There is no room in the next parliament for flat Earthers

'Thames Water has six weeks to agree survival plan with Ofwat.'

Six weeks? Even if it lasts that long. Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock... 💥
