Ultra-processed food exposure and adverse health in 9 million subjects shows a 50 percent increase in mortality- why does the U.K. NHS and SACN persist in denying the data? Will our new government act to fight big food? https://t.co/qD9GBacQFM

I just hope that our government can learn this lesson. Well ventilated buildings are a public health and productivity good.

@IndependentSage consistently advocated for cleaner indoor air from summer 2020 onwards.

Please read this @Ara_Darzi & @wesstreeting on the vital importance of ensuring hospice & community palliative care are funded as bedrock NHS services 🙏

Otherwise, some of the most vulnerable patients in Britain will suffer avoidably at the end of life 😔https://t.co/SKXnnkONKl

So @thameswater has “19bn of assets in ‘poor’’ or ‘failed condition’ or are ‘no longer capable of reliably performing their function’, and are a ‘risk to public safety’”.

Greed, profiteering and @ofwat’s demands that WCs “sweat the assets” to blame.

Very excited to announce the launch of
THE WATERSHED POLLUTION MAP!

River health, landfills, sewage, road run-off, intensive farming, big industry, forever chemicals, abandoned mines, bathing waters, flood risk, protected areas and so much more... 🧵

"Water investors have withdrawn billions, says research."

It's time. Time to put an end to this. Time to put an end to the turmoil, the torment, the torture.

Time to put @thameswater into special administration and @ofwat into special measures.

"‘Someone is going to die’: MPs warned of E coli risk to swimmers in English waters."

The real outrage, those in power have known about all of this for years. At what point I wonder were they ever going to tell us?

Well @DefraGovUK, @Ofwat, @EnvAgency?

River Irwell that flows through Manchester city centre blighted by record sewage dumping by @unitedutilities with 12,000 discharges in 2023 — the highest rate of all English rivers when accounting for length — at 95 dumps per mile 💩💩https://t.co/twD3eR4fRd @ManCityCouncil

There isn’t a single country in the world that spends more on public services than the UK without taxing the average worker more heavily:

Dear 🇬🇧,

Please read - this NHS scandal potentially affects you all.

🧵 Having studied the data, just released, from the @RCPhysicians members' survey on PAs, I couldn't be more disgusted by the lack of probity, honesty & fairness of those who lead my Royal College. 1/n

@OfficialSonyPS4 how do I report fraud following a hack of Sony account

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

I see the Chancellor is talking up NHS plans today.

There’s no plan from this government to “reform” the NHS. It’s all spin & nonsense. (40 “new” hospitals, anyone?).

They’ve had 14 years to deliver on workforce, infrastructure & standards.

Instead, they’ve savaged them all.

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

According to the High Court in 2022 60% of all sewage dumping was due to a lack of investment by water companies (capacity), a further 18%, lack of maintenance.

None of it was due to 'exceptional circumstances'.
