People who choose to get into a dinghy, attempt to cross the channel and risk their lives in doing so must be pretty desperate. That there's no legal alternative route should be a source of national shame, yet pundits like Andrew Pierce seem to revel in it. #DamoRants

Its not a mystery, if u deliberately close hospitals across England, close 125 A&Es & close beds, a denationalised, shrinking health service can't possibly treat as many people as before even if the size of the population stood still! Simple maths.

Rishi Sunak will be an awful Prime Minister, he is a Tory after all, but the alleged uptick in members being cheered by Reform UK, the hard right rump of the Brexit Party, upon Sunak becoming PM heralds the predictable racism that was bound to come. #DamoRants #RishiSunak

It's surreal. Where have you been, have you been thinking we were kicking off about Starmer settling because we were all being a bit Antisemetic.

The BBC seems positively giddy as it gets chance again to talk about the 'need' for cuts 'to please the markets'. The argument that was won - that austerity is a choice, never a need - has been treacherously un-won and no voices are allowed to challenge it...

Did the health section of Unite ever get an answer..?
Quote Tweet
The Health section of Unite the Union (@UniteinHealth) has written to Wes Streeting asking for answers about a health privateer donor. Streeting received funds from an investor who will make substantial returns if the privatisation of health expands.
Can Streeting remain in post?

Labour frontbenchers are saying everything's changed in the last 5 weeks, they'll now have to make 'tough choices'.
But nothing's changed: the debt, sluggish growth and energy crisis were all with us before Truss. Weren't they paying attention? Or are they taking us for fools?

Centrists, so called moderates and liberals, hate Democratic Socialism more than they fear fascism.
The 20th Century is replete with examples.

Revelations like these increase my respect for Jeremy Corbyn. Always honest, always loyal and never compromises on his principles.

Thank your work on this .
Will email #Bath MP to ask her to support your call for a public inquiry.
Shocked how empty House of Lords is, and many there not paying attention or 😴.
How many attended speech vs how many claimed a full days allowance?
Quote Tweet
In the Lords I have just formally called for a public inquiry into Tory Govt's role in mass deaths.
334,000 killed by 2012-2019 austerity;
208,000 - Covid;
117, 000 -Could not get hospital treatment;
93,000 - Poverty.
Please support this call. Tell your MP.

Starmer sheltering two more alleged sex pests in his Shadow Cabinet

Starmer didn’t just deflect . He was disingenuous. Dishonest!
He implies by omission that his wife is a nurse, when she’s in fact a lawyer in NHS occupational health dept.
He does same when refers to his dad as a “tool maker”. His dad owned the factory.

Extraordinary that the Guardian's George Monbiot hurriedly deletes a rare tweet in defence of Julian Assange and then justifies the move by claiming he has been unable to make time to follow the details of the UK's jailing of a fellow journalist and leading political dissident

What a shame, an excellent tweet and Assange needs all the support he can get. What happened @GeorgeMonbiot? twitter.com/jaraparilla/st…
