@GNRailUK Terrible changes - not everyone is going to London!

Not only do I now need to change trains to get to work but there are no stopping services at all between 7:57 and 9:24 (from Baldock). So when you inevitably cancel my train, what do I do? Walk?

Fifteen years. Five prime ministers, seven chancellors, eight foreign secretaries, twelve culture secretaries and sixteen housing ministers.

A thread, for #RantyTuesday.

Not sure why these comments from John Edmunds yesterday were not more widely publicised.

“We could have avoided much of the autumn wave…
As it was we let it go.

20-25K people died…
There was no reason for that number of people to have died - at all”

The cost of meeting the nurses' pay demand - £1.6bn 🏥

Cost of Sunak's bank tax giveaway - £7.3bn 💸

They have the money to give nurses a proper pay rise- they just don't want to.

RT if you back a real pay rise for our nurses 👊

@OliverHealdUK @RishiSunak There aren’t any good choices - we need a general election

[Emma Lightfoot @EmmaHaku]

@OliverHealdUK I’m not going to ask (again) where you stand on any of the major issues, but on the small hope that you will see this - this is not democracy, please represent me and your constituents by arguing for a general election

[Led By Donkeys @ByDonkeys]

General election now
