How do people like Trump, and, for that matter, Johnson get elected? They divide people up. Bernie Sanders could see this 20 years ago.

I’m a doctor originally from Afghanistan who is now proudly serving people of all backgrounds in NHS.

Despite the fear of violence against my faith & background, I won't be intimated. UK is my home & I will continue to help anyone who needs it.

We shouldn't give in to racism.

We held another #summer activity yesterday, helping renovate a family centre in @Go_CheshireWest

Our children & YP painted & tidied the outdoor area.

Afterwards, we had drinks & snacks & went for a #healthy lifestyle walk around a local park 🌱🫶

Anyone tempted by Reform because they think Farage is colourful and a bit of a character should read this. https://t.co/oQIqb0olfz

@DanNeidle Good question. Great answer. Cheers Dan

[Dan Neidle @DanNeidle]

This is a good question. Here's the answer:

[Carol Vorderman @carolvorders]

NEWS
PPE being burned/landfill yesterday

Footage from one PPE mountain
All new
All unusable
All paid for with our taxes including to Tory cronies through the VIP LANE

Inc Michelle Mone = £122m unusable PPE

Cost to us:
ONE BILLION POUNDS just to store and dispose of

[Prem Sikka @premnsikka]

Severn Trent boss paid £3.2m despite firm’s fine for sewage dumping.

Rewarded for damaging human health, biodiversity, marine life and ripping-off customers.

OFWAT does nothing to protect people.

No execs ever fined/prosecuted.

Privatisation is a scam.
