Urgent @cabinet-office-uk.bsky.social assessment required of James Purnell's corporate and ethical conflicts of interest

Let's attempt to deal with Andy's teething problems before he becomes PM. We need a parliamentary assessment of James Purnell's corporate and ethical conflicts of interest

The notion that public spending can only occur if revenues are available from taxation or government borrowing is not in any sense an economic truth. It is merely a recent - and an entirely fraudulent - convention.

Superb speech Emma

Don't continue the sell off of our NHS, #AndyBurnham. Starmer & Streeting have accelerated the privatisation and Americanisation of our health system. Please reinstate a universal, comprehensive, fully publicly provided NHS in England

My pledge: It’s time to finally give the Unite Health sector the resources needed to restore pay, tackle burnout, protect safety & end privatisation.

Yet another pointless discussion between @bbclaurak.bsky.social & James Cartlidge on the false premise that you need to cut welfare if you wish to fund defence. When will they admit the truth – that every £ of public spending is newly created @BankofEngland.bsky.social computers? #MMT

As a @BMA.org.uk member for well over 50 years, I am appalled by the forthcoming GP ballot. It's reminiscent of the bad old days when the BMA was a bastion of profiteering & disregard for patients. BMA officers should distance themselves from this reactionary proposal

BMA GPs committee for England to ballot GPs on an alternative strategy for general practice that'd allow GPs greater freedom to provide private services. The gov't must act to stop NHS privatisation. Please write to your MP and share tinyurl.com/633wcdhx

It is vital that the Health Bill gives local health economies the ability to decide for themselves whether or not they need to procure additional capacity from the private sector, to reduce health inequalities in access and outcomes as well ensuring consistent quality of care for patients. (2/2)

In my time as Chair of the Rochdale Primary Care NHS Trust, I witnessed first hand how marketised healthcare systems - such as the #NHS - lead to higher health inequalities. (1/2)

Funding illegal Israeli settlements is not charitable activity. It is extremist activity. Working with Israeli human researchers, I found at least 32 UK charities who have sent £28 million to settlements in recent years. There’s a likely taxpayer subsidy of at least £5 million through Gift Aid.
