No new PFI in Neighbourhood Health Services | We Own It Wes Streeting: do not use a β€œPublic Private Partnership” to finance Neighbourhood Health Centres

Did you spot it?

This government wants to use a PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP for Neighbourhood Health Centres in its 10 year NHS plan

*Even though Private Finance Initiatives mean the NHS paying up to 27 x over for hospitals*

Take 1 minute to say no weownit.org.uk/act-now/no-n...

US hits International Criminal Court judges with sanctions over investigation into Israel The Trump administration is slapping sanctions on four judges at the International Criminal Court over the tribunal’s investigation into alleged war crimes by Israel in its war against Hamas in Gaza.

🚨🚨Whatever your thoughts of the ICC, the actions by the #Trump admin to slap sanctions of four judges at the ICC over the tribunal’s investigation into alleged war crimes by Israel is a despicable & very dangerous move. 🧡 apnews.com/article/inte...

Most new build homes must be fitted with solar panels - Miliband The energy secretary says the move will cut energy bills, but house builders caution against burdensome regulations.

Ed Miliband is the best thing about this government and he's absolutely right here. Minimal cost to the house builder, huge long term savings for the home owner, essential for the future of humanity.

Trump announces 25% tariffs on car imports to US The US President says the tariffs on cars will come into effect on 2 April and car parts a month later.

Trump's tariff tantrum will damage economies around the world (particularly US).

The wrong UK response would be to bow to Trump by exempting US tech firms like X from the Digital Services Tax.

Do not reward oligarchs and autocrats at the expense of UK citizens!

Will Labour’s cuts balance the books or punish the poor? Labour's welfare cuts hit the disabled and low-income families hardest, raising fears of deepening inequality and financial hardship

Rachel Reeves had a choice...

But instead of taxing the super-rich, she decided to slash benefits – leaving 3.2 million families Β£1,700 worse off.

The damage that does to our nation’s social fabric, quality of life, physical health, mental health and opportunities… is immense.

Over 85,000 children in Britain are living in extreme poverty Frontline workers say this is the worst level of child poverty they have seen, as more than half of families struggle to afford food.

Cry for me Britannia.

Over 85,000 children in Britain living in extreme poverty.

Nursery-aged child hospitalised malnourished, caused heart condition, teeth removed.

Govts prioritise arbitrary fiscal rules, won't tax the rich, redistribute.

1% has more wealth than 70% of the population combined.

At least 330 killed by Israeli air strikes on Gaza, Hamas-run ministry says, Hamas-run ministry says - live updates The strikes across Gaza Strip end two months of relative calm since a ceasefire began on 19 January.

Hundreds of lives wiped out in Gaza overnightβ€”families, children, gone in an instant. This is horrific.

The UK cannot stay complicit. We must use every diplomatic tool to fight for justice and end all arms sales to Israel now.
