This is Trevor Fisher, speaking to @channel4news.bsky.social from Arthur Rank Hospice in Cambridgeshire this week. As a palliative care specialist, Trevor’s interview has devastated me. His hospice has just been told Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Trust is withdrawing £800k of funding. 🧵

"People are tired & exhausted.. bills are sky rocketing.. the NHS is not properly funded, people can't get an NHS appt.. meanwhile since the pandemic billionaire wealth has doubled.. we need to have a tax on multi millionaires and billionaires" @zackpolanski.bsky.social on #politicslive

Children with special educational needs are being suspended and excluded from school and labelled “trouble-makers” instead of getting the support they need, a report has warned.

'Sadistic' nursery worker who abused 21 babies sentenced to eight years in prison - ITV News Not long enough!! 😡

I for one am absolutely shocked, stunned, etc

Children with special educational needs are being failed. Most people think it’s not their concern,but it is! Teachers are stretched, all children’s learning is suffering. Unmet needs in the classroom leads to challenging behaviour, and anxious,traumatised children. proper support urgently needed.

Russ did an amazing job as our investigative journalist, uncovering the untold abuses of the PPE scandal. A book based on his investigations his now being published – and a documentary about the revelations will be broadcast on ITV this Sunday 📅

An NHS doctor who was working at St. Thomas' hospital, which is on the route where the far right marched:

Dear Reform voters, These guys are laughing at you. They promise to make your lives better… but they couldn’t give less of a shit. You’re their playthings. Their route to power. When they’ve got it, they’ll be done with you. And they’ll trash the place. Get some self-respect. The rest of the UK.

Democrats could have marshaled the money to buy TikTok or make a non-partisan purchase. They have failed. Now the most anti-democracy people in Silicon Valley will own it.

It takes two to tango!!! Wtf!! Please someone stage an intervention and be rid of him! 🤬

We need a government that cares. One that tackles real issues and makes sure every child gets the opportunities they deserve. If the Government rolls back children’s rights and damages the SEND system, it will be yet another attack on the most vulnerable.

The rise of division and extremism in the UK reflects an unfair broken system driven by the ultra-rich, whose influence over politics, business, and media deepens inequality. To address this, we must increase taxes on the wealthy and ensure everyone—not just powerful lobbyists—has genuine influence.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone. Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care. The system is broken.

This is so much easier than balancing a state budget, right?

Ed Davey makes some good points here. Musk wants to power Britain’s homes, the man who said we’re heading for civil war, who supports Tommy Robinson, who flicks internet on and off in Ukraine like a light switch. What could possibly go wrong? buff.ly/pNXAh48

Great. Maga lite making progress in the UK thanks to the same blend of racism, misinformation, othering, scapegoating and lack of understanding or compassion. 😔

RELEASE THE FILES

It is very nearly the tenth anniversary of that brief moment when, for 2 or 3 days, British newspapers remembered refugees are desperate human beings who need our help, rather than scum that it's okay to threaten with violence.

Got to be. Surely !!

Myth #4: GDP is the correct measure of progress Reality: GDP tracks spending, not wellbeing or ecosystem functionality Implication: Our main cultural goal is focused on costs, not benefits

England's water companies circumvent rules on exec pay. Yorkshire Water boss was paid extra £1.3m via offshore parent firm. UK company law is weak The payment not disclosed in annual accounts. End the circus. Nationalise water.

Oh there’s a thing ….

No but paying them enough to start one might !!

Has he gone yet ?!

'It is just another layer of debacle being heaped upon the burning shambles that has become the oversight and regulation of the water industry.' Feargal Sharkey reacts as it's revealed that serious water pollution incidents by water companies rose by 60% last year. @matthew-wright.bsky.social

Just fact-checked this and it’s sadly true: the Trump admin ordered 500 metric tons of food aid for Afghan & Pakistani kids to be burned. Even worse, 60,000 more tons of U.S. aid sits unused and risks expiring. Beyond cruel.

And they say romance is dead ☺️😆

A little something for our mental health !

During last night's Russian attack on Chernivtsi,as personnel was taking children from House of Butterflies hospice to a shelter,little Zlata, a patient of the hospice,suddenly stopped breathing The doctors,risking lives,brought her to intensive therapy,resuscitated Zlata under the Russian strikes

Kemi… according to you t people need to be in work to have a family. Many people are in good jobs, many two Jobs but still can’t afford children because of the pittance they are paid.🙄 So only the rich are going to be allowed to have a family by your reckoning
