The language of alongsidedness. Experiences of Place. Non-furious litterpicking: a person dropped it, a person picks it up.

For a full decade, the UK has invested far less in capital infrastructure in healthcare than any other major developed nation, according to analysis by the Health Foundation, resulting in fewer beds and diagnostic scanners than comparable countries.

MPs’ menu in Parliament:

“Pressed duck leg and caper terrine with celeriac and mustard rémoulade
and sour dough toast”

£4.52p.

Subsidised by you.

The total value of fraud in three COVID-19 schemes totalled £4.5bn, of which the taxpayer is only going to get £1.1bn back, the head of HMRC has told MPs https://t.co/Yjvco0pLZU

A widely shared video from Nigel Farage claimed ONS figures show "London, Manchester and Birmingham are now all minority white cities."

But the figures Mr Farage refers to show this is true of Birmingham but not of London and Manchester.

It's our hope that before long, humanists will be allowed to speak on BBC Radio 4's Thought for the Day. It's not a radical request. In fact, it's already happening in Northern Ireland. BBC Radio Ulster has featured humanists on its Thought For the Day slot since 2021.

It's Miller's stillness that always strikes me most, the concentration on Powell's words that presages his evisceration of the hideous bigot. It's more drive-by than debate. The racists who pose as 'intellectuals' remain much more insidious than their more 'honest' counterparts.

The census results today are surely something to celebrate. We are a glorious multicultural society with such a rich diversity of heritage and worldviews. And contrary to the bleating of bigots online - it's wonderful!

So 600,000 children go to private schools and two million children go hungry. But we're subsidising private school fees instead of free school meals.

[GET PR DONE! ⭕️⚫️🟣🟢🔴🟠 @getprdone]

Why doesn’t the BBC get MP’s on to ask how we’re going to afford the profits our privatised public services drain from tax-payers every week, but the hint of an inflation linked pay-rise and it’s the only question asked? 🤔 #GetPRDone

I do wish we’d replace ‘reducing loneliness’ with ‘increasing connection’ (or something contextual)

I feel it would make a huge difference to the invitation & the way that people show up.

Shift from needy to contributing

No money for nurses' pay? What did it say on the side of the Bus of Lies?

[Howard Beckett @HowardRBeckett]

Car parking charges:

• NHS Nurse: £1,300 per year.
• MP: £0.00 per year.

Ban NHS car parking charges.

[Howard Beckett @HowardRBeckett]

• NHS Hospital Canteen: ‘Single Tuna sarnie’ costing £3.00 for nurses, paid for out of their own wage

• Houses of Parliament: ‘Rum banana tarte tatin with rum and raisin ice cream’ for the princely sum of £2.37 for MPs, paid for by you the taxpayer

Back the nurses’ pay strike

[Charles Tannock @CharlesTannock]

An utter scandal which is being swept under the carpet it seems

[Femi @Femi_sorry]

I just realised that my last video destroys the idea that Brexit was ever 'democratic' in UNDER A MINUTE!

So send this to anyone still making that argument.

To clarify once again: Restore Trust is NOT part of the National Trust. Restore Trust is the trading name for RT2021Ltd, a private company. This is really important. Please challenge this claim when you see it in their corporate communications. Please RT.

When a @UKLabour candidate is best placed to defeat a Tory candidate vote Labour. When a @LibDems candidate is best placed to defeat a Tory candidate vote Lib Dem. When a @TheGreenParty candidate is best placed to defeat a Tory candidate vote Green. 👍
