@drmattuk@TheBMA I'm with you and all of your colleagues in the NHS, Doc. 100%. Every step.
Please succeed. To save the NHS, for every one of us.
Thank you for all that you and your colleagues do on our behalf, every day. Despite everything this spiteful government does to undermine it all
Tynemouth Lodge Hotel, North Shields, Tyne and Wear.
The only pub in the area to be listed in every edition of the CAMRA Good Beer Guide for the last 40 years. It has been trading as a public house since 1799. 🍻
Every day another news story says Britain is under pressure from global instability.
Why can’t we just build homes, and clean energy, with secure jobs?
Turns out the answer is even better than I thought.
See what you think.

“It worked, boom.”
That’s Nigel Farage celebrating a Reform UK plot to break election law - by having a US company secretly pay for three influential political polls that benefitted the party.
Earlier in the investigation, Reform’s Head of Policy James Orr and senior advisor Dan Jukes arranged for a Verbatim reporter to pay for the polls through a US company. Orr and Jukes believed the firm was run by the reporter’s American father.
Mr Farage was filmed by undercover reporters from @Verbatim_Media as part of a year-long investigation that Channel 4 News has thoroughly checked and verified.
This meeting took place in his Clacton constituency in July - when Mr Farage was fighting a by-election he called after separate allegations about his finances.
Watch the full investigation on YouTube.
@olddrummer52@1986Oblong Spot on. Eddie Howe will ALWAYS be a club legend for where he took us and what he achieved. But it's also true, that he was a spent force last season, and that we now have exciting times to look forward to again. Thank you Eddie, and we're now fully behind Jaissle.
Jiassle (YICE-LUH) I can boogie, Seany Steur and Malik Thiaw, Woltemade, Lewis Miley, Harvey Barrrrnnnneeess.
We’re going double platinum.
Finally a very good chant.

@NUFC Thank you for everything you gave us, and did for our club, Eddie. Always a hero on Tyneside.
All the very best for you and your family in the future.
This document should keep you awake at night.
The govt’s National Risk Register now ranks losing our drinking water alongside a PANDEMIC as one of the two biggest threats facing the country
This year, in the right-hand document: The chances of “Catastrophic impact” on our drinking water supplies - up to a one in four chance.
Last year, same document (on the left) rated it a minor risk. Bottom of the chart.
So what changed? Nothing changed!
Water is still in private hands and depute the Water Special Measures Act deteriorating rapidly.
This is where 36 years of privatised water has brought us.
Tens of billions handed to shareholders. Over £60 billion of debt racked up on water assets that should belong to al of us.
Leaking pipes. No new major reservoirs. Sewage in our rivers, on our beaches, in our sea.
They didn’t invest. They extracted. And now the state’s own risk experts are telling us the tap water could go.
And the regulators? They watched. Fines for pollution became a business expense. Thames Water’s creditors are now asking for their pollution fines to be written off. You couldn’t make this stuff up!!!!
So let’s cut the crap about ‘tougher control’ of water companies. We’ve tried that for 36 years. It ended with drinking water on the national risk register next to a pandemic. You can’t regulate a cash machine into caring about you.
There’s one answer. Bring water back into mutualised public ownership. Run for people, not profit. Answerable to bill payers, not bondholders. Every single pound going back into the pipes and reservoirs we should have built decades ago.
Water is life. And yet we’ve watched it turned it into a payday.
Time to take it back.
The UK plans to get rid of the Coastguard Service and turn it into volunteers only, to 'save money'.
This will cost lives, and we have afforded it for 204 years.
But now it is 'unaffordable'.
No it is billionaires who are unaffordable, tax them until there aren't any.
@NUFC Thank you Tripps. For everything. All the very best to you and yours for the future. It would be great to see you back at SJP in a coaching capacity.
When you see the relentless attacks from other parties on the Greens across the media remember this:
They hate our plan to end Rip Off Britain.
They don't want a wealth tax.
They don't want public ownership & lower bills.
They're trying everything in their power to stop us.
Crazy isn't it Jeremy Corbyn's Labour party had an 'antisemitism crisis' and now Zack Polanski's Green Party does.
While Nigel Farage's Reform party, with Nigel Farage and loads of Nazi lovers, doesn't.
It's like it's some kind of scam used against Left Wing parties.
