A £9m donation from a cryptocurrency "investor" who lives in Thailand comes with so many red flags it should be an advert for political finance reform in the UK. Instead, it'll be forgotten about and the media will soon be back to talking about Farage as the champion of the common people.

The founder of an investment company who bought an £8.5 million London flat after supplying 50 million faulty PPE masks during the pandemic has had a criminal restraint order imposed on the property. www.thetimes.com/uk/crime/art...

Disabled people deserve healthcare. Disabled people deserve housing. Disabled people deserve food. Disabled people deserve support. Our ability to work and produce for capitalism should not determine our value. Disability is not a moral failing. Most people will experience it someday.

Or Streeting could just read the 2024 independent study comissioned by the #NHS. "Economic costs to individuals and the government of at least £17 billion (6) are avoidable as, when appropriately supported, people with ADHD can thrive and fully engage in a working life." #ADHD

It's an extraordinary approach to dealing with healthcare waiting lists, that even the most callous of governments hasn't tried in my memory. To cut waiting lists, simply deny that people are ill! If we expand this approach far enough, we can get rid of waiting lists by this time next week!

Yeah, he was careful to pick a known crank who already thinks MH is overdiagnosed. Just another stitch up.

I work in an office with a lot of software engineers from many countries. They all speak better English than Frogshit. They know, for example, the difference between "asylum seeker" and "illegal alien", between "my house" and "my partner's house", and between "concerned citizen" and "moronic thug".

No child should be used as a political punching bag. Farage’s attack on #Glasgow’s multilingual pupils is code for attacking the children of those of colour and of refugee or immigrant backgrounds. Targeting migrant children is just another dog whistle and an utter disgrace. Shame on #NigelFarage.

This is the Foreign Office's current advice on travel guidance for Syria, granted not a full country profile used for asylum cases. Even were it not warned that Syria is unsafe, just because a conflict has ended it does not automatically make a country safe. Reconstruction alone can take decades.

this is the disability version of the trans bathroom debate: maybe we shouldn't let people just live their lives in the ways they need to because of this theoretical person who might someday take advantage that we just made up.

I have to assume that as soon as enough of the wider public realises this means them, or their parents receiving pensions, it’ll be withdrawn. It’s fine when it means what they THINK OF as ‘benefits claimants’. But the reality, they won’t like

People act like being disabled is great because you get all these ‘benefits’ but forget you have to actually live with your illness or diagnosis or impairment

spot on. thank you for speaking up for us. Why are these people always worried about supposed benefit frauds when there's <0.5% fraud on PIP; and never once call out all the tax dodgers who amount to much much larger missed revenue for the UK. Have to suspect they *are* the tax dodgers.

One thing folks in the comment section missed is that the student's mother is Kristi Fulnecky a congress woman who was recalled from the Spring Field City Council. Additionally, she was the attorney for J6 Proud Boy Christopher Quaglin and badly handled a court case that she lost.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration. But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants. The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

Today on International Day of People with Disability, we acknowledge the disabled and chronically ill community and their right to sexual expression. Disabled rights are human rights and sexual expression is a human right.

Important findings show that investing in cancer treatment is positive for real people's lives *and* the economy.

Wes Streeting calls striking doctors ‘the grinch’. Doctors being forced to sacrifice a large proportion of their xmas pay packet by striking means their family xmas will be affected. But who is the grinch here, if we are to reduce this debate into the childishly absurd? #r4today #lbcnews

Solidarity to you. All NHS workers deserve a pay rise. Our pay has dropped so much in value, and it needs to be made up. In addition, it's a disgrace that doctors are facing unemployment with such high waiting lists for patients to get treatment.

Doctors should not have to strike to be heard. It's not too late for Wes Streeting to return to the negotiating table and avoid this industrial action. We remain committed to negotiating a solution on jobs and pay for resident doctors in England. #EndTrainingCrisis #PayRestoration

Wes Streeting insists that NHS health records are not for sale. But handing them to a company like Palantir shatters any chance of public trust, warns our data lead Duncan McCann: https://goodlaw.social/i1o0

Odious. On BBC Breakfast re GPs' extra work due to online bookings - apparently "no reason" why there shouldn't be online access like everyone else (they literally just told you why) & snide remarks such as appreciating it would be easier if there weren't any patients & "Moaning Minnies" at the BMA!

Tonight I’ll be running a Call to Action live event! We’ll be talking about who Wes Streeting is picking a fight with now (🚨), the 18,000 redundancies which I haven’t seen a single media outlet talk about with compassion, and why people are saying this winter could see a historic crisis…

“Like all recent occupants of No 11, Rachel Reeves is struggling to inject growth into a moribund economy. In a break with predecessors, she has belatedly pointed the finger at Brexit and was right to do so.”

Listening to David Lammy on @BBCr4today attempting to justify abolishing trial by jury, it is increasingly and terrifyingly clear that he simply does not understand the issues.

I wish more people were aware of this. Considering the scale of the threat, the media's near-silence is both remarkable and culpable. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Plopkins: FARAGE MUST FACE SLEAZE PROBE OVER RUSSIAN INTERFERENCE, RACISM AND COUNTLESS OTHER LIES

In March 2022, while Russian invasion forces were pouring into Ukraine, Farage was deeply concerned about the welfare of Russian oligarchs. Why was that? Is there something about Farage and Russia billionaires that the public ought to know about?

Israel War Crimes

Labour have copied a migration policy that has failed in Denmark Copying Denmark’s hardline asylum policy a ‘terrible idea’, Danes say Helene Brydensholt of the The Alternative party has urged the UK Government to think again, explaining it’s been a disaster for integration and led to more racism

The Tories showed this horrifying truth: OUR Gov't has DEPORTED INNOCENT BRITS to an UNFAMILIAR place & still haven't compensated all the victims of 'the Windrush scandal'. Let Farage in & he'll go full Trump while his Christofascist handlers applaud. DON'T VOTE HIM IN! Read Afua's & Sam's articles
