How many had a 28.9% pay rise! ANSWER - EVERYONE WHO DIDN’T HAVE SUCH A BIG CUT If you hadn’t had the cut your haven’t needed the rise! It really is that simple - shouldn’t be this hard Unless you’re a history graduate Wes Streeting or bad at maths The answer below

If your social media posts don't get you — and your immediate family — banned from visiting America you’ve not been doing it right.

The Nobel Prize committee should announce the World Cup winner tomorrow

Universal Basic Income and universal healthcare will unleash a 2nd renaissance beyond our wildest dreams. #UniversalHealthcare #UBI

The Express is furious about this because the moment you show those who repeat anti-immigration rhetoric the real human stories their narrative collapses. The “immigrants” are people. Our friends, colleagues and family. And it’s this nation of neighbours that is what makes Britain great.

Where is 'home' for a dog? It's in the relationship with their human. The rest is unimportant The criteria imposed by rehousing charities are the elephant in the room when we talk about supporting people experiencing homelessness and their dogs

Today's migration stats illustrate the migration doom loop in action... (from my presentation at the IMF last week)

Naloxone in hospitals! Proud that @uhpnhs.bsky.social has pioneered this - great to highlight in print #naloxonesaveslives @pharmaj.bsky.social @grahamparsons.bsky.social @naloxoneplym.bsky.social pharmaceutical-journal.com/article/ld/h...

Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood's Asylum Plan 'Conflates Control With Cruelty'. Starmer won't tell the truth about immigration, won't defend human rights and won't stand up to Britain's far right media elite. People didn't vote Labour to get Reform UK. open.substack.com/pub/bylinesu...

Can you see the problem 🤷🏻‍♂️ Wes Streeting can’t 🤦🏻‍♂️ 31million/month consult GP practices with similar number having haircuts 102,000 hairdressers in England with 40,000 salons 38,000 GPs with 6200 Surgeries On average people spend £400pa on hair GPs receive £169pa per patient

Tommy Robinson regards Labour as having been converted to his far right, nationalist cause. That's where Keir Starmer, Morgan McSweeney and Shabana Mahmood have taken the party.

"If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." Malcolm X. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

What you’re witnessing is a populist assault on the BBC. This is not an institutional scandal in any meaningful sense of the word. It is an attack on public service broadcasting. iandunt.substack.com/p/extra-edit...

This is a really odd article- promoting iron infusions as a solution to a complex problem- and ignoring potentially serious underlying causes such as bowel cancer. Quotes are from a couple of doctors who provide private treatment

‘Out of control’ migration is often blamed for many social ills, especially ‘over-stretched, overwhelmed’ public services. Many myths abound such as queue-jumping asylum seekers making it impossible to see a GP or receive emergency care. (1/2)

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

Looking forward to this!

If I were running Labour comms I would commission an app called 'Will the Tories/Reform deport you?' then let the reactions on TikTok and Instagram do their work.

It's time to act on nitazenes before we sleepwalk into an emergency like America's fentanyl crisis, writes Cranstoun's Ant Lehane.

Very quick update on Covid in England from latest UKHSA hospital data. Looks like current Covid wave *might* have peaked, and also that flu season is starting a little earlier than normal. If you can get vaxxed for either, I'd do it! christinapagel.substack.com/p/very-quick...

To be effective, protest must be noisy, obstructive, annoying. No longer is this allowed. Now the last attribute of effective dissent – persistence – is also to be banned. But the moment protest ceases to be effective is the moment democracy dies. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"Give a man a fish and feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and feed him for a lifetime. Teach a man to cycle and he will realize fishing is stupid and boring." -Desmond Tutu, anti-apartheid and human rights activist #BicycleBirthday October 7 (1931 -2021)

Keeping people in poverty is an expensive luxury. My column on the false economies of austerity, which costs us all a fortune. Despite the government's claims, austerity continues under Labour. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Absolute credit to Wes Streeting for directly contradicting the poison that comes from Nigel Farage, by welcoming and thanking people who make Britain their home to work in our health and social care systems. Reform would send them packing and collapse the NHS. #LabourPartyConference

Stop blaming migrants and tackle UK’s real problems, 100 charities tell home secretary A letter warns Shabana Mahmood that ‘targeting refugees will do nothing to tackle’ problems with housing and the NHS

Thousands of Londoners have indefinite leave to remain. They have legal rights and are our friends, neighbours and colleagues, contributing hugely to our city. Threatening to deport people living and working here legally is unacceptable.

shouting this at the screen every day in these cursed times

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.

So cool they discovered the cause of autism on basically day they guessed they would. I’m also glad they are withholding this information for a few days to prep for a WrestleMania-style announcement. This is how science works.

Good morning from Plymouth ☺️

No one wants choice in public services. They want the one nearest them to be good.

- you clean up that banksy? - sure did, your honour, leaving a perfect, permanent outline, imbuing the work with real fuckin gravitas while making its point better than the artist did himself just like you asked

Being stressed makes you ill Being ill makes you stressed This is the vicious cycle faced by millions of people of with long term incurable conditions. Dear Governments, subjecting people with long term conditions to long term and continuous stress does not increase their work prospects.

The five week-wait for universal credit is a flaw that actively creates debt, instability and dependency, says Christians Against Poverty.

Introducing digital ID won't "stop the boats" It would instead raise a whole range of human rights concerns - from mass surveillance to accessibility www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

So people who’ve fled death & torture are going to be denied the chance to live with their families- who may themselves consequently be exposed to the same dangers- and I’d suggest not a single Reform voter will vote Labour as a result while other Labour voters will abandon them in disgust

Politicians and journalists love to blame the ECHR for small boats, ignoring that the issue is relatively new and a direct result of government policy, including Brexit. It's an unnecessary debate built on deceit that suits people's own agendas. #r4today www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Reform MP says they will negotiate with the Taliban.

Are you a drug and alcohol services commissioner? Do you work in these services? Are you interested in harm reduction? Next month, we're bringing colleagues working across health together to discuss how we can drive forward harm prevention efforts. Only a few spaces left!⬇️

Migrants didn't cut council funding. Migrants didn't cut NHS funding. Migrants didn't close youth centres. Migrants didn't sell off council houses. Migrants aren't filling our rivers with sewage. Farage and co. will tell you to point the finger at migrants. Don't fall for it.

Britain doesn’t have a migrant crisis, it has a far right crisis This is manufactured by a small and violent minority, backed by a foreign owned media and supported by an ineffective government with weak leadership

Remember this when people quote collision data and say that "speed isn't a factor" so reducing the speed limit won't positively affect road safety. It's always a factor, despite what the police write in their incident report.
