Carlisle's Green Cumberland Cllr. Former public health Dr. Only collective citizen action can get us out of the messes we're in. Our govt's not fit to lead.
Yet another disgusting decision by govt. NHS staff risked their lives 2 protect us & care for us during the pandemic. Many have suffered impacts on their own mental health & wellbeing in doing so & continuing to work in an NHS that is being broken by govt. Pls support them & RT.
URGENT REQUEST FOR HELP FROM NHS STAFF:
NHS England will cut funding for mental health support for hospital staff from tomorrow
Please take 30 seconds to sign this open letter to Amanda Pritchard if you agree they should reconsider👇

NEW: Legislation announced during King’s Speech to allow oil and gas companies to bid yearly to explore for more oil and gas in the North Sea.
New oil and gas WON'T lower bills or improve energy security, but will wreck the climate.

Utterly shocking. @MayorJD's a superb politician & has done amazing work. A campaigner for social & climate justice & a just transition. Exactly who's needed in a Labour party fit to govern 4 our future. Shame on whoever barred him .. @UKLabour.
I’ve been barred from standing as North East Mayor by @UKLabour. No explanation has been given.
I’m proud to have created thousands of jobs, fought child poverty, built affordable homes and delivered our Green New Deal. I believe in democracy. Share if you do too. More to follow.

@unsub_press @TheGreenParty I'm Green & am now a Green Cllr. I stand with our trans friends. Life's a spectrum, nothing's black & white so let's live & let everyone live their lives 2. It saddens me the divisions that've arisen round this within the party & feel this has been introduced 2 divide & distract
@ColinGlover2 Didn't know you had that lined up @ColinGlover2 . Really pleased to hear you have had it done and wishing you a speedy and uneventful recovery. And #ThankYouNHS indeed. The staff are amazing. The sooner we have a govt who value them the better. #ValueourNHSstaff
Why I'm going to London 21st April. I take #ClimateAction cos I know the devastating impact of the #ClimateEmergency on our public health, whilst meaningful action wd benefit us all. Govt is doing the opposite to what's needed. The time to act is NOW. Please join us!
We are proudly part of 26 health professional groups coming together to demand that the unfolding climate crisis is addressed.
We are standing together to stop those in power from destroying our health service, our communities and our planet #UniteToSurvive
Be under no illusions, this is the system the UK government has been working towards for years. Deliberately breaking #ourNHS has been part of the plan. Covid just helped them. They've deliberately destroyed what was a healthcare system the world envied .. in the name of profit.
What can you do? Join local & national campaigns to save the NHS @keepnhspublic, support striking nurses, ambulance drivers & all other health professionals in their strikes. Believe stories from those on front line. Challenge lies from govt & other people when you hear them.
The deaths in the Channel crossing are devastating. The reality is, there's a reason people are in those boats and that's because of a lack of safe routes into the UK.
This Govt needs to stop with the hand-wringing, division and rhetoric, and create safe routes now.
