This is what 15 years of Conservative rule and 18 months of Wes Streeting have done to our NHS It is time for the government to reverse NHS privatisation and invest in rebuilding our NHS

Surely they've suffered enough?

The Conservatives’ Alternative King’s Speech claimed the welfare bill is higher than income tax receipts “for the first time ever”. We’ve heard this a few times recently, but it’s not true. Welfare spending (including pensions) has been higher for years.

As Health Secretary, Wes Streeting deepened the privatisation of our NHS and handed over our data to Palantir, a company involved in genocide. I am sure his friend Peter Mandelson is very proud. Time to reinstate our NHS as a fully public service — and kick Palantir out!

Duck/s! - anyone know what kind?

Angela Rayner was dragged through every front page for weeks... HMRC's verdict: NOT deliberate. NOT even careless. Farage pockets £5 million and chooses not to declare it So where's the wall-to-wall coverage? Tell me this isn't a rigged game.

HMRC has cleared Angela Rayner of any wrongdoing in regards to her tax affairs and concluded she did not deliberately try to avoid tax. So now that's all sorted, shall we focus on the man facing an investigation over an undeclared £5m gift from a Thailand-based crypto billionaire?

Farage wants to dodge the blame for Brexit. We can’t let him Labour are letting Reform’s leader get away with it - the upcoming 10th anniversary is time to change that open.substack.com/pub/thenewwo...

This is fun by @christhebarker.bsky.social : a list of resigned and retired Reform councillors. refukked.lovable.app?utm_id=97758...

Angela Rayner who was hounded by the press & stepped down from Deputy PM has been cleared by HMRC of any wrongdoing. Richard Tice who has not been hounded by press & remains as reform deputy leader, is still unburdened of any investigation by HMRC on multiple failures to pay tax. #Reform #Labour

Presumably, all Farage has to do is provide the receipts for his security bill and apologise to us all for not declaring the £5 million. Shouldn't be a problem and as leader of a major party I'm sure he'll be absolutely delighted to clear up any misunderstanding.

BREAKING: Nigel Farage is facing an investigation by the Parliamentary Standards Commissioner for not declaring £5 million gift from British crypto billionaire Christopher Harborne

The £5m Farage bribe is being investigated. Now lets investigate every single donation and have a recall election on every single corrupt MP who has taken money for influence. See if the public is happy with their corruption.

Great to see WBG so well-represented in the new touring exhibition 'Making Her Mark: A Celebration of Women in Art', now open at Penlee House in Penzance. Two WBG works feature, 'Gurnard's Head, no. 2', 1947 - recently acquired by Penlee and Kirkcaldy's 'Atlantic Squall' from 1979. buff.ly/nTJOqKw

PS The biggest surprise was people - not many, but still - clearly using generative AI. Please don't. Like all editors, surely, we would much rather have a sincere, authentic idea from YOU that is ragged around the edges than a slick piece of globo-American slop.

The documentary photography of working-class people that gets published tends to show people looking pitiable and/or threatening. We try to challenge that a bit, and Carmina Ripollés is one of the photographers who helps us. Here's her fabulous festive portfolio: thebeemagazine.com/when-were-sm...

8 years ago I got my boi from someone who was going to give him to a shelter. He instantly got along with my kitties and has been a mainstay I never want to be without. His entire face is white now, which obviously comes with age. But he's still just as spunky and wonderful as ever

This kind man stopped his car to rescue a wild coyote that had been stuck in a fence for several days. 🙏🙏

Long-awaited X ray today. Taken since February to arrange and confirm. But it was reassuring to hear that the radiologist had suspicions that there was an abnormality. Hoorah! Half of treatment this days seems to be getting someone to believe you, and then waiting, and waiting.....
