From N’orn Ireland, got lost in Tower Hamlets. Meet me at 56th and Wabasha. Ex-evangelical

In 2019, Robert Kenyon criticised female presenters/pundits on Sky Sports: “The women on the panel’s aren’t up to the job and only there to tick a box.”

This is was seven years ago, not “fifteen years ago”.

Kenyon’s grotesque comments about Carol Vorderman were posted by him on Christmas Eve 2021.

This is was four and a half years ago, not “fifteen years ago”.

In June 2022, he posted: “Don’t dole out the ‘what if someone is raped by their brother’ arguement. Life begins at conception. Abortion is the cowardly act of murdering a defenceless baby.”

This is was four years ago, not “fifteen years ago”.

Reform UK spokespeople and Kenyon himself have repeatedly described these comments as “more than a decade ago,” “nearly 20 years ago,” “around 15 years ago,” or similar in interviews and statements over the last two months, because they are shameless bigoted liars.

@FOWingsScot Updated donations page.

[Sharon 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 @K4rmaRules]

There needs to be a cap on donations. This is madness.

@Zebragirl1971 @KarenAd89081735 A key philosophy of NMHCs is to not exclude people (which is laudable)

Don’t know whether the rhetoric matches the reality on the ground

My concern is about those who *really* don’t want to be included but have high needs & serious risks

I’m not buying the hard sell on this

Awkward. Speaking in parliament in 2022, John Swinney railed against the economic illiteracy of people suggesting he had the right to spend ringfenced money on other things.

@CoidJeremy1 @hundredfamilies I can’t see how the MH Neighbourhood model can be funded without loads of £.
This started as an idea to test the Trieste model.
My guess is because the Trieste model was found to overlap nicely with the general Neigh’d model, things were rushed along to generate some good news

[David R @davewave020]

@CoidJeremy1 @hundredfamilies The capital will be in relation to a stated Govt commitment to opening 250 Neighbourhood Centres, with 100 open by 2030. Timothy Kendall quoted this 250 figure, but it is for the Neighbourhood Model in general.

Prosecutors agreed to drop a series of allegations against Peter Murrell that would have heaped further embarrassment on Nicola Sturgeon in exchange for the former SNP chief executive’s guilty plea, it has emerged https://t.co/hqZBHAC97d

[David R @davewave020]

@Dennynews I think they plan to warn donors about donation risks via a subliminal message on the SNP donations page.

[David R @davewave020]

@CoidJeremy1 @hundredfamilies I’ve fairly sure that the capital allocation that Timothy Kendall referred to relates to the general commitment to Neighbourhood Centres.
We’ll need to see if anything has been ring fenced for Mental Health.

The NHS is under considerable financial pressure for 26-27
64% of Trusts/ICBs report they are likely to reduce or cut patient services.
65% of GP leaders expect to reduce routine or proactive care

The NHS is not recovering.

The whole thing has been a farce, and a horrible experience for all the staff at risk

Sarah-Jane Marsh talks about NHSE coming to the end of "big cycle" of voluntary redundancies

Says this has been a "massive strain" on the organisation, with many having been at NHSE for a long time and teams now separating

Peole are denying the reality of racism in policing, just as the Met has done ever since the Macpherson report.
Now there is even the outlandish claim that two tier policing discriminates against white people - turning reality upside down.
