Across the NHS there are currently around:
* 8,000 doctor vacancies
* 25,000 nurse vacancies
* 100,000 total vacancies
And yet ignorant people in the comments still talk of people ‘stealing their jobs’
The truth is the NHS would collapse without staff from all over the world
An MP regularly, knowingly, spreading misinformation, should be sacked by @HoCStandards, @Conservatives or local party
@Helen_Whately generates hate onto some of society's most vulnerable by the posts, which are immediately contradicted by health professionals, disabled folk etc
@Helen_Whately@Conservatives Lady. If somebody receives no re-assessments, it’s because their other conditions that you have conveniently not mentioned, are so severe, that there’s medical proof that they will not improve.
You are so disingenuous in your incessant need to target vulnerable people.
Helen is spreading misinformation about disabled people.
PIP isn't awarded simply because someone has a diagnosis.
It's based on how a condition affects day-to-day life.
Stop using disabled people as a political punchbag.
Start dealing in facts instead.
UK on track for the 2020s to be the worst decade since the 1920s.
Govts intoxicated with neoliberalism, growing finance industry, privatising everything, prisoners of the City.
Must jettison neoliberalism, embrace equitable distribution of income/wealth.

Royal Mail boss’s pay package triples to £6.9m.
Cost of postage stamps rocketing
RM hasn't hit delivery target for 1st-class post since 2017, 2nd-class mail since 2020.

Jewish News has a tantrum over MPs debating pro-Israel influence in Britain and repeats the ludicrous claim by Israel-supporting MPs - many of whom have been funded by the Israel lobby - that examining the issue “echoes antisemitic conspiracy theories”.
Two British Muslim men pulled an elderly couple and their grandson from a burning house in Leeds on Friday.
Mohsin Qayyum, 22, and Mohammed Yusuf Iqbal, 20, were driving past when they saw the blaze.
Without a thought for themselves they ran straight in and rescued the people.
Left: Keir Starmer, "I'm stepping down after two years leaving the country in a better position that I found it"
Right: Police arrest an 83-year-old woman for holding a sign, after Keir Starmer and Yvette Cooper proscribe a protest group, which Labour's Baron Hain said was shameful in the House of Lords
Under Starmer, the face of terrorism in the UK is elderly old women holding up signs. What a disgraceful legacy
Simply don’t understand those willing to deny the evidence of multiple doctors from a variety of different countries; independent investigators all with long and established careers, journalists, survivors and witnesses, a pile of visual evidence as well as their own eyes - and still attempt to discredit those who report this. - whether they’re survivors, medics, academics or journalists…
Andy Burnham's new Chief of Staff, James Purnell, was branded ‘one of my boys’ by his friend Peter Mandelson
The appointment of the Blairite lobbyist raises questions about the direction of the Labour Government under Burnham https://t.co/6mmh7bibmq
"McSweeney quietly inflamed the 'antisemitism crisis' that would dog Corbyn’s leadership from at least 2018.
"He did so by seeding and placing stories into the press that helped to build the narrative that Corbyn’s Labour had become riddled with antisemitism".

The BBC’s political editor has written an article about the unravelling of Keir Starmer’s tenure.
The total numbers of times ‘Gaza’, ‘Palestine’ or ‘Israel’ is mentioned? Zero.
This is how propaganda by omission works.
The UN couldn't print the names of Palestinian children murdered and maimed by Israel.
Why?
Because they feared Israel would respond by killing and maiming the families of the children.
Water nationalisation is absolutely necessary to start fixing the structural privatised extraction and strategic vulnerabilities associated with the status quo model.
The state would expand its balance sheet to acquire full control, with very little inflationary pressure.
Alarming findings which illustrate how deep Epstein's relationship with the former Israeli PM was. Which, incidentally, underscores the significance of the latter's claim made in private that Peter Thiel was a "co-owner" of an investment fund with Epstein https://t.co/v1kBnQtLUD
