I try to be interested in the world, but I could probably try harder.

The Financial Times says that while he was in California this week Rishi Sunak failed to attend a roundtable discussion with the UK hospitality sector. Treasury insiders said - and I kid you not - that the meeting clashed with a scheduled call with *US healthcare bosses*.

Retweet this if you think Rupert Murdoch has done unforgivable damage to this country.

Pia Klemp, the German ship captain who rescued migrants in the Mediterranean, has refused a medal from the mayor of Paris.

"I'm not a humanitarian. I am not there to 'aid'. I stand in solidarity. We do not need medals.”

@0Calamity Watched it on ITV news at 10. They couldn't hide their excitement and crowing.

I just don't know how I'd have got on raising 3 kids without access to CBeebies.

If the awfulness of BBC news & politics spoils everything else they do that will be a tragedy.

When Priti Patel says anything about Palestine always remember that she had a secret meeting with Netanyahu without the knowledge of the government she represents and no other British gov employees present.

13 secret meetings with Israeli government figures.

1/. We know SAGE recommended a circuit-breaker lockdown on 21 Sept

We know that on that day, the PM & @RishiSunak met controversial anti-lockdown scientists Anders Tegnell & Prof Heneghan & Prof Gupta

Now we know Prof Gupta advised a full #HerdImmunity strategy. #DISPATCHES

[Peter Stefanovic @PeterStefanovi2]

How hard would this be @BBCBreakfast?

1. Show film

2. Explain to viewers PM has not only lied to Parliament over & over again but also broken Ministerial code (over & over by refusing to correct the record)

3. Invite a Gov’t Minister to respond

Simple

This is my mum a matter of weeks after her assessment, they stopped her benefits, took a month to respond to a ds1500, she died the same day. The assessor described her as slim build, she weighed 32kg, they fined her, tried to claw back overpayments, ignored doctor letters

Official sources: #Israel has informed Int’l orgs that it intends to blow up two schools: Al-Buraq & Al-Aqsa.These were among centres being prepared to shelter families whose homes were bombed. Nowhere to go. #IsraeliCrimes. @IntlCrimCourt

[Prof Kailash Chand OBE FRCGP @KailashChandOBE]

Entire nation is grateful to GPs for a successful roll out of #vaccination. The NHS England kicks them on the teeth by insisting GPs return to face-to-face when they been doing for people who need it throughout the pandemic.Haven’t they?
RT to pay your tributes to amazing GPs!

As Jews we are told from a young age that our identities are intrinsically tied to the modern State of Israel.

It is taught to us in Hebrew School, in services, and is a deeply held belief by many of our parents, grandparents and family members.

[Asa Winstanley @AsaWinstanley]

The petition for Parliament to impose sanctions on Israel is nearing 200k signatures, which would be double the required number for a debate.

It's important to *keep signing* -- blow the target out of the water, increase the pressure.

@Nivagdetrolley Got any tips for a youngster just starting out in the bulldog-clip-bottom-lip game?

In 2016 when Mr Corbyn was Leader, Bristol elected 37 Labour & 11 Green Councillors. In 2021 under Sir Keir, Bristol has elected 21 Labour & 24 Green Councillors. Last November, 5 Labour Bristol West CLP members were Suspended. We Ladies believe these Matters are Not Unrelated.
