Patients want treatment, patients want real doctors, recently qualified doctors want jobs. Streeting says he believes in the NHS and cutting waiting lists. Fund it now, it may even be a vote winner. #NHS πŸ’™

This Starmxit is very poor fare. The CU, SM, FoM menu is the only way back.

The ECHR was Britain’s response to WW2 fascist regimes. With authoritarianism on the rise again, we’d be mad to give up the protections it provides. Tell your MP we won’t let that happen! actionstorm.org/petitions/pr...

100%. There is no way Reform voters would ever vote Labour. It is long since time to consider the rest of us.

Yes Zack. So can we expect these facts from a political leader to be a regular feature on mainstream media? I doubt it.

Keep fracking out of Britain! I live in Lincolnshire, and a new gas field has been found nearby. Reform UK are already shouting β€œdrill, baby, drill,” and fracking isn’t banned - it’s only paused. That means they could start drilli...

Reform UK are yelling β€œdrill, baby, drill” πŸ™„ But fracking is reckless & won’t even cut bills. Time to end this nonsense. Tell Ed Miliband: BAN FRACKING permanently. Add your name:

Absolutely. They act like they're in Hollywood. Dreadful performance today from Hooper, always mindful MU is Webb's main team. I'm expecting new Arsenal only crap decisions again this season.

You’ll be too young to remember, but there was a time when you could wake up as many as three mornings in a row and not find the world had lost its fucking mind.

We're that slightly brighter star at centre right.

England faces drought this summer as reservoir water levels dwindle Exclusive: Government and water firms preparing for possible shortages as dry weather is expected to continue

England faces drought as reservoir water levels dwindle. Rationing beckons.

Population increased but no new reservoirs for 35 yrs; no desalination plants.

Companies fleeced customers, borrowed to pay high dividends, low investment.

People pay for privatisation follies. End the scam. Nationalise.

Well said. Labour should put new voters before donors, progressives before racists, stop missing open goals (water, EU), stop scoring own goals (WFA, disability benefits).

Private companies are polluting our rivers, hiking up bills, and failing to deliver. 82% of us want public ownership – let’s make it happen!

Shocking state of Britain’s bathing waters revealed Surge in coastlines, rivers and lakes with unsafe levels of E coli and intestinal enterococci due to sewage spills

Surge in England coastlines, rivers and lakes with unsafe levels of E coli and intestinal enterococci due to sewage dumping.

All done to boost profits, dividends, exec pay.
