Patient stories from the NHS waiting list โ€” Just Treatment With the NHS waiting list figures rising once again and the government being accused of misleadingly deleting people off the list, we share the stories of NHS patients being directly impacted.

The Govt claimed NHS waiting lists were falling but research and patient stories show many people are being deleted. Even then, the list has risen for the past 2 months. Wes Streeting must deliver real solutions. ๐Ÿ”— justtreatment.org/news/2025/9/...

Most MATs looking at teaching staff cuts Majority of trusts are considering reducing teacher numbers and teaching assistant hours in response to budget pressures, CST research shows

MATs are really quite expensiveโ€ฆ
In each MAT, the โ€œback officeโ€ is replicated. So we have CEOs, CFOs, etc etc all commanding large salaries that eat away at school fundsโ€ฆ

Then there is the demand for expensive schemes/programmes of learningโ€ฆ

No surprise at allโ€ฆ

Ofwat probes payments to water bosses after Yorkshire row The regulator, which is due to be abolished by the government, has written to water companies to investigate whether they have paid executives via offshore vehicles, Sky News learns.

OFWAT probes exec pay at water companies. Yorkshire Water bypassed rules, paid execs through offshore parent company.

Govt was told legislation was weak.

Why was govt/Ofwat not proactive?

End the cat-and-mouse games. Nationalise water. Let customers and employees vote on exec pay.

The Great British fear factory: manufacturing a lawless London Reform UKโ€™s โ€œBritain is Lawlessโ€ campaign isnโ€™t about making us safer โ€“ itโ€™s about manufacturing fear for political gain

Crimeโ€™s roughly half what it was in the 90s, The Bear points out.

Britainโ€™s still one of the safest countries in the developed world.

So why does Reform want you to think Londonโ€™s a hellscape?

Because fear is their product โ€“ and business is booming.

The Terrorism Act 2000 specifically ensures that it is lawful to organise for the de-proscription of a group.

There should be no law in democracy that cannot be opposed. That is the very mark of democracy itself.
