What a disgraceful shambles @easyJet are. Stuck in SSH while they try to find volunteers to get off because plane is too heavy. Same problem on the way out. Unbelievable

And that the government have been talking about addressing this since 2013 and still haven't done it? #toryshame 2/2

How FU is it that in a country where over 6% are Muslim the student finance system doesn't conform to Islamic law. In a country with a crisis of training health care professionals, talented Muslims are bared from training because of that finance system? 1/2

Monstrous queues for passports @LDNLutonAirport. Complete chaos. No marshaling. No help. @UKBorder at its finest. #pissupinabrewery

So @AlsisiOfficial fancies a day on the water, so shuts all the jetties in Sharm, costing his country's tourist industry millions in lost income and pissing off the tourists Egypt depends on. Smart move?

Congratulations to the dashboard team for rolling this out so quickly.

"The study also shows the jab's ability to stop people catching Omicron starts to wane 10 weeks after a booster dose" - that's the NHS screwed this winter then. First to get boosted, first to loose the benefit https://t.co/uCp2KBWrff

Intense debate with @Midwife_Sophie, inspired by #TheArchers. Turns out I was right. There was no donkey.

#christmasatthecastle - looks stunning. Sounds absolutely appalling. Go. But take ear plugs.

Congratulations @BenBrookfire!

My attempt at a pandemic poem:

After too many lows and not enough highs
It came as a pleasant surprise
To discover that we,
Despite PPE,
Could still manage to smile with our eyes

One of Gaza’s few remaining medical specialists, Dr Alalool, has been killed by an Israeli bomb, together with his 5 children. Israel’s weapons are indeed remarkably accurate, but in the narrow streets of Gaza City any use of high explosives is likely to kill civilians. #Gaza

This is absolutely shocking and needs addressing urgently. Racism has no place in the @NHSuk, or anywhere else. (despite the tag, doesn't look like it was actually CWPT though)

My mum has just worked as nurse throughout the pandemic, a year after qualifying. Got COVID at work. She recovered (we thank God) and went back to work. She's now decided to apply for a new role in a different setting and this is what was sent to her by the recruiter. @CWPT_NHS

There's a special place in hell reserved for the sad little shit who thought dumping this lot on a cycle path was fun
