We welcome the Prime Minister's comments on Jon's diagnosis. What we need to see now is real action to improve care for the 1 million people living with dementia.
Dementia is the UK's biggest killer, but it isn’t given the attention it deserves. We wouldn’t accept that for cancer or heart disease – which is why we’re unapologetically demanding better for everyone affected by dementia.
@toadmeister@JohnBSouter Is Ed Miliband bad or mad or both? He's interpreting models based on guessed assumptions as hard facts. But hard facts are treated as opinions.
@prestonjbyrne Equality in Britain means equal under the law. Pretending everyone is the same is a fools fantasy with the consequence that trying to impose a fantasy is undermining equality under the law and that is undermining real equality.
@JamesMelville@JocastaMoney Just watched an analysis that Scotland is very vulnerable to a similar DC AC cascading voltage outage as happened in Iberia. That's before any more load or generating capacity. UK needs an energy coordinator responsible for the system as a whole. Times are changing very fast
@Artemisfornow "App boy" . Everything to app boy is an app you put your life into dependent on someone else. But oh so convenient. Just don't expect app boy to pick up the pieces of your life when it goes to shit.
Tax in the UK is the highest it’s been since 1945. That’s well understood – but another trend has been largely missed: the number of taxes in the UK is at its highest since the end of the Napoleonic Wars.
@DanNeidle@AlbertRSalter@Jan_Leeming Disagree. A benefit could have covered the gap if no other safety net. Now we have the worst possible outcome. A bankrupt system of dependency and inadequate pensions.
Ridiculous. The pubs already pay their taxes, a percentage of profits, more profits more tax, they keep locals employed often young people… who desperately need it, yet more crazy uneconomic nonsense, every day brings more bad news
