@lbc.co.uk @shelaghfogarty.bsky.social @tomswarbrick.bsky.social @mrjamesob.bsky.social If things like these don’t factor into the calculations on your view then I don’t know what to say.

@shelaghfogarty.bsky.social We spoke yesterday after Netanyahu’s speech. I will not 2 sides this, as there is no balance to be had. One side is clearly Goliath, and the other far weaker than David.
I wonder if history will look kindly on your well documented view. Genocide cannot be apologised for.

This was me. Thank you. Honestly I came away from the interaction shaking. They muted me for large parts.

Netanyahu is unhinged. This speech is terrifying, and he’s broadcasting it to starving civilians in territory he fully controls and occupies.

Cruelty.

@lewisgoodall.com @lbc.co.uk If there is no Palestinian state then please define Gaza and the West Bank? What do you call an area of land filled with people who share an identity? If it is not a state, what is it? I think allowing it not to be a state allows it to be the obvious answer; prison.

@lewisgoodall.com @lbc.co.uk I am Palestinian Israeli, and British. Recognising a state means so much to me. I’m not sure if you’ve noticed the number of people who deny palestinians even exist. We have a right to exist. Acknowledge us and our humanity, and maybe they will treat us better.

Currently reading Kingmaker by Graham Brady and having already read Rory Stewart’s Politics on the Edge I am struck by 2 things:
1) Some parts of conservatism are palatable (heavy on the some).
2) David Cameron was a right prick.

Whilst Israel is bombing Iran it is continuing to bomb Gaza.

Right to defend itself my foot. Everyone has the right to defend themselves. So when do we allow people to defend themselves against Israel?

I don’t know how to describe this but my world is shattered today. Netanyahu has created an open field and now will feel he can act with total impunity against Gaza. I am afraid this is the end, and my throat is so tight I can barely swallow.

What can I do?

@wesstreeting.bsky.social internal markets are not the solution… All that I ask is the next time a consultant talks to you about innovation and efficiency with a sprinkle of productivity you critically think about their motives and ideology prior to accepting it. *ahem Penny Dash ahem*.

It’s like when Liz Truss killed the queen…

#Gaza: Along with hundreds of others across the Strip, our colleague Alaa Abd-Elsalam Ali Okal was killed in on March 18 following the resumption of Israeli attacks.

Hundreds more were injured in this abrupt end to the ceasefire. Our thoughts are with his family.

A lot will be said about the NHS structure, functions and system processes in the coming weeks and month. As you hear and read it, keep this in mind and ask if we're making the same mistakes now? #patientsafety

We need you in Britain too Mehdi! Come and hold back the tide here.

Meanwhile over on the other place, rightwing free speech warriors (this guy is a former DeSantis campaign staffer) are calling for me to be denaturalized and deported because they don’t like my political speech. This is what fascism and racism looks like, folks.

On that rota I’ll do it for 30!

Oh God… They’re just so lame. It reads like that annoying flat mate who passive aggressively leaves name labels on mugs.

This is what people
normally mean by innovation in the NHS.

Fewer cables means the whole thing is cheaper, right?

Trump and Musk have almost identical faces.

Has anyone else noticed that trump and musk have identical jowls?

We are members of Congress at the Treasury Department. We want to be let in to provide oversight on behalf of our constituents. @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

I've been trying to support some folks who have been "clinical fellows" for years, onto the appropriate SAS contract.

Honestly, at what stage did we decide to accept that the nationally negotiated contract for the work done should be optional?

This is exploitative as hell.

Nauseating

This could also be seen as a self harm exercise for NHSE, which is being quietly absorbed into DHSC. No effective body outside of government managing the health service or policy, the NHS becomes even MORE political on day to day decisions.
NHSE leaves a lot to be desired, but it’s better than DHSC.

I’ll be boycotting American goods from the UK.

We are all about to get crushed.

Everywhere should have a 20000% tariff on Tesla’s. There are other electric cars available. No one should be buying anything to do with Tesla.

Hopefully the collapse will be so obvious and well publicised that Reform and Farage with their obvious parallels are totally unelectable in 4 years.

We need America to nose dive so that we’re all scared enough to make sure it can’t happen here.

This is why not all outsourcing is cost effective, or safe.

This is the direction that “innovation” is pushing the NHS. I was shocked.

Post inspired by HSJ podcast with Dr Penny Dash (public health), prominent government healthcare advisor-author of the Dash review. Previous advisor to McKinsey.

Was told they couldn’t see the whole drum and I should make an appointment with the GP.

Phoned GP, went to the surgery, ear drum looked at and obs taken, appropriate questions to ascertain how ill she was or if she had underlying conditions, obs taken… Discharged with antibiotics and safetynetting
