I'm going to London on Monday. As a post menopausal woman, I am always tired and going to a funeral I will not look happy. Let's hope I don't bump into Zahawi. Though I might be tempted to give him a piece of my mind. Which will leave him feeling very tired by the end of it.

NSUN responds to the “social media ban” Young people deserve protection from Big Tech, and it is only young people who can tell us how to do that.

At NSUN we welcome conversations about how social media companies exploit and harm young people. Big Tech must be responsible for the harms it profits from, but we do not believe a blanket social media ban will achieve the effects it claims.

Reform politicians are happy to throw insults from a distance.

But when it comes to debating their ideas? No show.

Richard Tice pulled out.
Farage won’t face me.
Now their candidate in Gorton & Denton has ducked our candidate Hannah Spencer.

Vote Green.

Corridor care shames the UK

Successive NHS leaders have failed to address the cause

Not increased activity but lack of capacity for admission & discharge - beds

Instead of 5000 additional permanent beds, ‘gongs’ given by the King to those responsible for failure
