    The idea that the British government would appoint a minister to fix loneliness, as it continues to cut social programs, is as baseless as the Brexit delusion of restored independence.http://nyer.cm/4AcF5fT

        We weren't lonely till they a) cut local bus service to town b) cut the mobile library that used to visit every Monday c) cut funding community groups - reduced opening of Community Centres d) cut Social Care funding - carers now have 15 minutes visits #olderpeople #loneliness

        The Prime Minister, @theresa_may is our led Minister of Loneliness: cutting us off from our friends and neighbours and retreating indoors to look at photographs of happier days. #StopBrexit

        Conservative Govt does not appoint any minister - to fix anything - just to produce endless soundbites - to the effect that the problem was the fault of the previous Govt - it is even worse in Wales - and under the next Labour Govt - the problem would be even worse.pic.twitter.com/ipfxM9tmKs

        Trumpeting such silly and meaningless appointments (the two Tory MP's most closely associated with this both have horrific voting records) can only serve to taint a worthwhile cause and campaign. Better Tories had not been allowed anywhere near.
