Unfortunately @BorisJohnson thinks clapping is enough for us NHS workers, while MPs deserve a 3k payrise. We WERE working flat out. We still are. We deserve a payrise much more than MPs do. #payrisefornhs #PayriseForNurses #Payupnow #OneTeam2k #NHSheroes #NHSPay15 #mpspayrise

[Boris Johnson @BorisJohnson]

On behalf of the whole country, I want to thank all the incredible nurses, doctors, NHS support staff & carers who are working flat out to fight coronavirus 👏 #ClapForOurCarers #ClapForNHS

To help them, and protect the NHS, we need everyone to stay at home #StayHomeSaveLives

🚨 New Prime Minister Andy Burnham has just pledged to fix social care.

Here is why that matters, and what’s missing… ⬇️

[UNISON - UK's largest union @unisontheunion]

"To me, they should be the best paid people in society, not the worst"

Today PM @andyburnham paid tribute to care workers and said he'd work with others to reform social care.

UNISON is calling for the Fair Pay Agreement in care, a National Care Service, and a fair visa system

[Andrea Egan UNISON General Secretary @AndreaEganGS]

It's good to see the prime minister gets the magnitude of the challenge in social care.

Shutting out private firms who're only in it for a quick buck must be a central component of any national care service.

But plans to push migrant workers out of the UK need to be scrapped.

@NHSMillion A big review was already done right before Labour came into power, there is no need to delay until next year.

@djlizw #FreeDrHussamAbuSafiya

If any evidence against him, he would have been charged. Being a doctor is no crime

[Liz Wheatley @djlizw]

Hussam Abu Safiya faces ‘tangible danger to his life’ following 18 months in prison without charge or trial.

@coglet @LuckyHeronSay Fund the NHS properly as well

[Jordan Rivera💙📢 #FBNHS 🌈 @Jordanriv]

@LuckyHeronSay Burnham has to do something about the genocide. It's so shameful that we've been complicit in what Israel is doing, this can't go on.

[The Lucky Heron @LuckyHeronSay]

Andy Burnham wants me to be happy with a £2 bus fare, but I want an end to Israeli genocide.

[Jordan Rivera💙📢 #FBNHS 🌈 @Jordanriv]

@SianaNache79742 Throw away the key

[Amnesty International @amnesty]

The latest tide of escalation in state-backed, recurrent settler violence in the occupied West Bank is the direct, painfully inevitable outcome of Israel’s policies of annexation, ethnic cleansing and apartheid. It also lays bare the failure of the international community to take any meaningful measures against Israel’s unlawful occupation of the Palestinian territory beyond imposing sanctions on individual violent settlers. Protect Palestinian civilians, end Israel’s ethnic cleansing and occupation.

[Jordan Rivera💙📢 #FBNHS 🌈 @Jordanriv]

@JustTreatment We want this to stop.

[Just Treatment 💊 @JustTreatment]

How many times does it need to be said? NHS patients do NOT want our health data managed by giant US companies whose primary motivation is profit.

The government must stop waving these deals through & give the public a say over huge contracts like this.

[We Own It @We_OwnIt]

The climate crisis may have caused the excessive heat, but it is NOT the reason for the hosepipe ban

Privatisation is the one true cause of the hosepipe ban

Scotland - where water is in public ownership - has not had a hosepipe ban since the great drought of 1995

Public ownership of water NOW

[NHS Million @NHSMillion]

There are currently 152,216 doctors working in the NHS.

Of which:

🇬🇧 British = 63%
🌍 Rest of the world = 37%

Where on earth would we all be without staff from overseas?

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

I recently organised a letter with my colleague @Imran_HussainMP, signed by over 80 MPs and Lords from 9 parties, calling for widespread sanctions on Israel, including:

▪️Sanctions on Israel's economy

▪️A ban on trade with illegal Israeli settlements

▪️A full arms embargo
