Now enjoying life!
💜🙏Dáithí Mac Gabhann has received the gift of a heart transplant
Statement:
"Dáithí is at the beginning of his recovery. There have already been some big wins for him, but there is still a long road ahead, and we would ask you all to keep him in your thoughts and prayers.
"Organ donation is the greatest gift anyone can ever give.
"We are beyond grateful to Dáithí’s donor and their family for making such a selfless decision at the most difficult time imaginable. Out of respect for them, and for their privacy, we won’t be saying anything more at this stage.
"Please keep talking about organ donation. Those conversations save lives."

Jaw-dropping stat from @Paul_Swinney's latest. Something he and I have been looking for a long time. Britain outside of South England operates at fiscal deficits on the scale of Greece at the worst of its financial crisis. https://t.co/1YILvqKwKr

Amazingly naive and a gimmick that won’t last beyond the first amendment to a government Bill.
Is @andyburnham going to fire all the Whips..? Alas this demonstrates he’s out of touch with how things work in Westminster where so much is done collegiately.
Burnham on a new type of politics:
Westminster and Whitehall set up for conflict and require radical change. We are one of the most centralised countries in the world.
Says wants a culture change. Says will not use the whip system and he will build an inclusive team of all parts of party. Also pledges to work together with other parties
