More than 1.5 million people waited for longer than 12 hours in A and E in the last year. Are this government going to attempt to blame this on NHS workers too? Or will they own up to the way they are profoundly failing the public? ๐จ

The monomaniacal #Tories are spaffing tax payersโ money at their immoral #Rwanda scheme.
What is more, as a deterrent, it will be totally ineffective because those who risk so much to come here will see the likelihood of deportation as trivial

Even if you're furious at Starmer about Gaza, remember that if the Conservatives win, it's likely Britain's exit of ECHR, further decline for the NHS, more corruption, more culture wars. That won't be better for you, and it'll be a whole lot worse for a whole lot more people.

Well, it's actually an alliance that includes Orban, Modi and Trumpists and is bankrolled by a top Tory donor.

Cruella Batshรฌtcrazyman says that living on the streets is a โlifestyle choiceโ.
It isn't. It's a direct result of 13 years of Tories waging war against poor & marginalised people.
Targeting homeless people and making it an offence for charities to help them is reprehensible.
