Labour MPs beginning to get upset at Burnham's choice for Chancellor. Just a thought: why didnt you ask him what he was going to do before voting for him like a bunch of bovine brainless fuckwits?

Today I discovered what happens when you’re too disabled to fit the system, but not disabled in quite the right way.

I learned that the NHS doesn’t always fail because people don’t care, it fails because the system is so obsessed with ticking boxes that it forgets there’s an actual human being standing in front of it. Or in my case… lying down.

After six days in hospital with a sepsis infection and an adrenal crisis, I was finally able to be discharged.

Patient Transport was called, but to my absolute shock, they refused to take me home because I have occasionally had access to a vehicle when a carer is available to drive.

TODAY, I have neither.

No vehicle. No carer. No family who can drive it, No friends available…. AND a specialist tilted wheelchair that won’t fit into even an accessible cab. Black cabs? NOPE. Still don’t fit. No room to manoeuvre into a rear face position… and cabbies simply won’t pick me up. safety first.

I explained that to the ward manager.

Then explained it again.

And again.

Each time I was met with the same question:

“Can’t you get someone to collect you?”

No.

The solution was, to discharge me anyway, knowing I don’t have any means to get home.

None.

And so, I was taken down to the discharge lounge… the lounge which is available for patients waiting for Patient Transport.

The very Patient Transport I’d already been told wasn’t available today as there’s ZERO capacity and a backlog of days worth of patients trying to get home.

I asked the obvious… “What happens when the lounge closes, and I still have no way of getting home?”

“Someone will deal with that then.”

No plan.

No solution.

Just… computer says no…

Somewhere we’ve replaced compassion with flow charts, and clinical judgement with algorithms.

If you don’t fit neatly into the system’s boxes, the system doesn’t adapt. It simply decides that you are the problem. That’s exactly how I felt today. An awkward inconvenience.

I’m not a difficult patient.

I’m a disabled woman who doesn’t fit your spreadsheet.

There’s a difference!

@FlorenceinL @BurnsideWasTosh If it doesn't have 'Manchester' or 'Andy Burnham' in it he'll not bother

[Bear @BearJFK]

So where is the emergency legislation, halting of the process, and sackings for knowingly letting in security risks?

For the millionth time: the system is working as intended

@videotech Doubt they'll clarify it, for the same reason they won't announce platforms coming later. Reduces their pre-order and day 1 sales numbers.

They told us handcuffing Henry Nowak made NO difference. A combat medicine doctor just CONTRADICTED that. He says the handcuffs didn't change nothing, they CHANGED EVERYTHING. Henry Nowak could have LIVED. THREE MINUTES after they cuffed him, he was DEAD.

Here’s what some of the new transcript actually shows.

Three minutes in, the male officer says he's not breathing. Cuffs off. CPR starts. “Come on. I got you.” Mate. Bro. Genuinely trying.

Then he whispers, “He's fu*cking gone. Blood's coming out his nose.” Keeps going anyway.

Eight minutes after Henry told them, same officer, hands still mid compression. “He's got a stab. I'm pushing on a fucking stab wound.”

He didn't get told. He FELT it. Under his own hands.

That makes it worse, he says. It does. Now he knows exactly what they missed for eight minutes, and his own hands just proved it.

The female officer who found it replies. “It's fine. It's not coming out. It's fine. Keep going. Keep going. It's not bleeding out.”

She's just confirmed an active stab wound on a dying boy. Her response is to talk it down.

Gurpreet's 999 call told the operator Henry needed medical attention. They turned up with CUFFS. The operator asked once about injuries, heard bleeding from the mouth, moved on. Asked THREE TIMES what racist thing was said. “That's what I needed to know.” One word outweighed a dying boy.

Henry told them himself. With his own mouth. Conscious. Clear. “I’ve been stabbed.”

The reply. “Don't think you have, mate.”

Not “let me check.” Not “show me.” A flat dismissal, because the man who'd put the knife in him got there first with a different story.

Henry was the one in cuffs. The man holding the actual KNIFE wasn't cuffed at all.

They wrenched his arms back to cuff him. The exact motion a critical care doctor says tore the clot holding his bleed shut.

Dr Magier didn't need a courtroom. Just a phone and a post mortem. Chest stab wounds kill under 5% of the time. One London trauma centre, 938 cases, under 1%. Even Henry's exact wound, the subclavian vein, is a coin flip if help's close. He wasn't unreachable, he was THREE MINUTES from a major trauma centre, conscious enough to speak in full sentences when they arrived.

The pathologist told the court none of that mattered. The judge repeated it at sentencing like it closed the case.

It didn't close anything. Bought three weeks, until a paediatrician on the Isle of Wight read the numbers out loud and the coroner ordered a jury inquest the next day.

Think about the sequence again, slowly. A boy is bleeding out. He tells the police the TRUTH. They believe the man who lied. They restrain the boy telling the truth. They check for the knife wound eight minutes later, almost as an afterthought, with a torch someone had to be asked twice to fetch.

Three days after he died, Hampshire Police drafted a statement calling Henry the AGGRESSOR. His parents stopped them. They did it AGAIN at the tribute stage. TWICE. CPS stepped in a third time, mid trial, warning them they were about to collapse their own murder case.

Four people built that lie around Henry's dying body. His mother walked off with the weapon. Convicted of assisting an offender, sentenced next month. His brother lied live on the 999 call, his father helped remove the knife at the scene, both now facing charges. Not for the lie that killed Henry. For a stash of weapons found at their house the next day. Twenty two charges between the three of them. None for the thing that actually mattered.

The officers who cuffed him. Six months on, still treated as witnesses, not suspects. Three no longer on front-line duties. One's already left the force, for an unrelated reason, apparently. IOPC investigation remains open.

Hampshire's own Police and Crime Commissioner said it plainly. He was not believed. He was not treated as a victim. Those words should have triggered an immediate and urgent medical response.

While a doctor laid out the numbers proving Henry had a real chance, Keir Starmer told the country there's NO two tier policing in Britain.

This isn't a story about one bad shift. It's a story about an institution trained to manage a narrative before it's trained to save a life. All 43 chief constables in England and Wales signed up to that guidance. Hampshire alone spent £861,737 making officers sit through it.

Henry Nowak gave them everything he had left. His voice. His account. His own diagnosis, spoken out loud while he still could.

They gave him eight minutes and a torch.

[Thomas King @TomK_Brit1993]

After nearly two long years of emotionally abusing the nation on a daily basis, this man, instead of showing any remorse or humility, has decided to double down and call us all far right racists again.

What a nasty, spiteful, sociopathic cunt.

[Peter McCormack 🏴‍☠️🇬🇧🇮🇪 @PeterMcCormack]

Whoever replaces Starmer will fail.
Just as the Conservatives failed.

You can’t build a country on low growth, low productivity, high tax, high welfare, high inflation and heavy regulations.

It’s basic math - you materially make the lives of the majority worse.

Reform, Greens, whoever else wants the gig - you will face the same.

Until someone defeats the managerial state, nothing will improve and we’ll have more PMs than Tottenham has managers.
