@BBCNews @LBC @guardian @SkyNews I’m currently stuck in UAE with medical risk and my medication running out and been told by consulate on phone this evening rescue flights are not being done because it’s ‘too hard’. I’ve booked 8 flights all cancelled. Are you reporting on this?

[Amy Fasey @amyfasey]

@ToryFibs Literally stuck in the UAE with high medical risk, running out of my medication. Booked 8 flights, all cancelled. And been told by the consulate tonight there are no rescue flights because it’s ‘too hard’. Probably because these clowns are busy doing this @ToryFibs @LBC

We've had a new report out into maternity and neonatal care and honestly... there's not a single surprise in it.

It's still - and I don't use these words lightly - a total disgrace. We've had multiple reports telling us this. And yet the same problems keep happening.

Women not being listened to - mums and babies being harmed or even dying - when they shouldn't be. So many people have their own stories - I'm sure if you're listening to this right now you might have your own story - or know someone who does.

There's one thing I wanted to pick out from the report by Baroness Valerie Amos.

The investigation heard cases of women who had lost babies being placed on wards with newborns.

This might seem like a little thing. But can you imagine losing a baby. The worst moment of your entire life. All those hopes and dreams for your child's future. Carrying the baby inside you - feeling it grow - and then the blood, the desperation that maybe it's going to be ok, surely it's got to be ok, and then the reality that you've lost your child.

And then what happens? You're put on a ward full of other mothers just like you... but these mums have their little babies in their arms.

That is not just negligent. It is cruel.

And it also happens systematically throughout the NHS. Having a miscarriage? Go to the maternity unit. Just had a scan where you'd hope to see your baby kicking but actually find out it doesn't have a heart beat? Go and sit down with all the happily pregnant mums.

This is symptomatic of a system where women are treated like vessels not like people who should be heard and listened to.

Because bringing life into the world can be the happiest time of your life. But it can also be the worst time of your life.

Either way - it's the most important moment. And that's why we've got to get this right.

“Why are folks getting dumber?” Because they don’t read. “Why aren’t men as romantic & poetic as they used to be?” Because they don’t read. “Why are people so vulnerable to propaganda?” “Why is everyone a conspiracy theorist?” Because they don’t read. Because they don’t read.

Ever wondered where your tax money actually goes? 💷
@BBCNews broke it down by imagining we each handed the Government £100.

Here’s how that £100 was spent in 2023–24:

£22 → NHS
£6 → Defence
£10 → Education
£10 → Debt interest
£11.40 → State pensions
£4.15 → Working-age welfare (PIP, Universal Credit, health support)
£0.50 → Asylum system
£0.70 → Overseas aid

What strikes me most is this: immigration dominates headlines and public debate, consistently ranking as one of the nation’s top concerns — yet the asylum system accounts for just 0.5% of public spending.

A reminder that sometimes the loudest issues aren’t the largest ones.

One time I reported a robbery to the police and they asked me what I expected them to do about it

@themayhew @havaslondon My lovely black cat (albeit her tiny white patches) named Bubbles was wonderful. #BlackCatFriday

[Larry the Cat @Number10cat]

My friends @themayhew have shared with me the shocking statistic that black cats take twice as long to be adopted as other cats. If you're considering providing a home to a cat please think about that when you make your choice

But we're twice as fabulous 🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

[Mayhew 🐶🐱 @themayhew]

Black cats take twice as long to be adopted. Doesn’t sound fair? That’s because it isn’t. 💔

So this #BlackCatFriday, forget the latest tech deals and consider something more fulfilling.... like adopting a black cat. 🥰🙌
