263 families lost someone today due to Covid.
We have raw sewage being pumped into our waterways.
MPs actively closing down scrutiny and debate.
Four million families face being forced into poverty.
Our Prime Minister wants us to concentrate our efforts on this...
Make. It. Stop
My GP has returned his NHS contract and is leaving the practice he has built up for years.
The new surgery administrator is Omnes Healthcare Ltd, a company which lists financial advisors and 'directors' among it's staff. I as yet cannot find any medical people on the board.
NHS Test and Trace has failed to achieve its "main objective" of helping break chains of COVID transmission and allowing people to return to normality despite being given an "eye-watering" amount of money, a highly-critical report from MPs has said https://t.co/rN4USfIe0H

Why didn't @zoeconway1 mention that the water companies have given £57 billion to shareholders instead of investing and upgrading the water infrastructure?

The healthcare firm that kept Tory MP Owen Paterson on a six-figure retainer won a £133m contract to produce Covid testing kits without any other company getting the opportunity to bid. That's Britain in 2021.
