@BritishGasHelp - elderly, inform aunt is alone in a house with no heating or hot water. Engineer says frozen pipes, essentially shrugging it off. What can be done to help her out until this cold snap is over?! 😢

@YourMotherSaysU @NHSMillion That makes no sense whatsoever.

@Joannechocolat My Mum taught me to cross the road twice (with my house keys in my hand, so that I could defend myself if necessary) to confirm if someone was following me. I’m so glad I don’t have daughters to teach these tactics to.

President Trump’s State of the Union address had one false statement every 4.5 minutes

[Nick Jack Pappas @pappiness]

This was the vote on Russian Sanctions:

House: 419-3
Senate: 98-2

Today, Trump said he won't impose the sanctions despite a veto-proof majority.

Congratulations, America. Laws are meaningless now.

@learner_parent My kid managed to get himself isolated in preschool yesterday. He’s two. The words “no signs of remorse” and “laughed when told off” were thrown around. I think I was supposed to be surprised. I was not.

As a NHS finance manager with 26 years experience it is my #PublicDuty to inform you that the current government is dismantling and privatising our NHS.

Stephen Hawking and leading doctors are taking Jeremy Hunt to court over 'back-door privatisation' of the NHS, and a full judicial review has now been granted

@TheUnmumsyMum @instagram and that annoying AF thing where it wants you to recommend someone to join IG. No. Go away. Waaaaaaaaah.

My GP has today reminded me why our #nhs is so wonderful, 9am appt to review some scans, 10am bloods, 7pm he calls me to give me results so I don’t worry all weekend and gives me the number of the specialist he wants to me to see so I can call direct on Monday. #ilovethenhs

These brave staff have told us what it’s really like on the inside of the NHS crisis. Make sure their incredible stories are heard – share this video.

“Unacceptable… unacceptable… unacceptable.”
When it comes to the NHS, Jeremy Hunt and the Tories are a broken record.
It’s time they admitted that the biggest thing that’s unacceptable here… is them.

@jounwin Imagine being the kind of person who A) doesn’t say thank you and B) actively discouraged others from being polite, also?! What a miserable, lonely life they must lead.

[Dr Rosena @DrRosena]

When you look around an A&E- everything is on display: people’s pain, fears, courage and hopes; the unfailing dedication and strength of the staff; and yes – the state of the NHS.

The Government's under-funding of the NHS is not an economic necessity – it is a political choice.

If everyone who has ever been grateful for a non-British clinician followed and retweeted we'd reach a million by the morning

@RalfLittle @professorgreen If @RalfLittle and @professorgreen could just put together a party and stand in then next general election, that would be fab. #commonsenseapproach #actuallyforthemany

Hi @Jeremy_Hunt,

We have a number of serious questions that we’d really like to know your answers to.

Firstly, do you believe the NHS has sufficient funding right now?

Thanks,

NHS Million Team

@Lisaaa__xox @basicallychlo Go to an independent MA. You can do it over the phone or online for the most part. Your bank only has their own products to offer you. Independents have whole of market. Good luck.
