@MayorofLondon Congratulations on a complete disaster for London. Walking around I've heard the disappointment from every nationality and confirmation that they won't come again. Ticketing and preventing anyone from accessing any areas is a masterstroke and one you should be proud of.

@JamesBlunt If Bono made the list I'm surprised I'm not on there

@terrychristian Serious question: do you think that the vote was driven by the perceived institutional inefficiency/beaurocracy within the EU, or was it the concept of ever closer union? In other words were people concerned by the now or scared of the future. It's lazy to say all were racists.

@HelenArgent4 @sophielouisecc The gap between rich and poor is about the same as it was 30 years ago and is still about the same as Italy, Spain, Luxembourg and Australia. The gap between what people expect/want (what they see on social media) and what they can afford has increased.

@sussexpapi @moore_l83 @LokiBurner @sophielouisecc No we shouldn't and that's exactly why offering support to just stop oil is utter nonsense

@To2Shoes @RichardBurgon It somehow doesn't seem right that the party with an elected majority don't have to do what the opposition want?

@alanshearer If you have to use computer aids to draw lines and then measure in millimetres, it's not clear and obvious. That is the problem.

@curiou5_tofu @pippip343 @joehutch @PoliticsJOE_UK No it wasn't

@holkydsa @supernova202082 @midgeure1 The point is nobody has taken their foot off the accelerator, spend is still increasing ABOVE INFLATION. Try googling 'real terms increase', I'm bored of trying to explain the concept.

[Common_sense @Commons17545352]

@holkydsa @supernova202082 @midgeure1 You're drawing a gap between the actual spend INCREASE and a theoretical line of what spending COULD be. I could draw any could lines and create a gap in either direction. If I drive at 70mph and accelerate I get faster regardless of how quickly I accelerate.

@holkydsa @supernova202082 @midgeure1 Do you understand the concept of increasing funding by more than inflation? Yes, 2.6% is less than 4% but this only means that the rate of increase has slowed, it's not a cut. It's still being funded more than ever and still increasing above inflation.

[Common_sense @Commons17545352]

@holkydsa @supernova202082 @midgeure1 And, bearing in mind it keeps getting funding above inflation, I think there is a strong argument to say it's underperforming not underfunded.

[Common_sense @Commons17545352]

@richardasquire @dmck52 @midgeure1 The NHS has never had as much funding, it's not being starved and it has never had more staff than today. Simple facts.

[Common_sense @Commons17545352]

@holkydsa @supernova202082 @midgeure1 The NHS has never had as much funding and never had as many staff

[Common_sense @Commons17545352]

@aprilfools2601 @jeremycorbyn Yes but the 4 day week plan is about everyone working less hours. Those who currently work 4 day shifts will also expect their hours to be reduced so, the problem stands - we will need more workers and that will ultimately cost more money.

@COOKIETSC @CrowMo99 @Flash_Morgan @TheDanielKobale @jeremycorbyn Sickness absence in the NHS has increased, I agree, but only from around 4.5%avg to around 5.4%avg. That is still a net increase in deployed staff of 2% in the year.

You haven't yet provided any evidence, just an unsubstantiated opinion. Facts matter, do some research.
