What health and care is about for me:

How do we make the smartest choices
about focusing limited resources
with partial knowledge,
to address the biopsychosocial needs
that best promote people's independence and wellbeing
with dignity care and kindness

Just published the "tax longlist" - 29 ways Rachel Reeves could raise £22bn.

I've tried to cover every serious proposal that's out there. This thread will be *long*.

There’s a massive class problem in the UK. Only 1 group is praised in the @GrenfellUnited report. The local community. We have a problem with services designed by middle/upper class people & think tanks for “those people” who live in social housing, draw on social care, benefits.

Our little country, in some special ways, is nothing short of awesome. #paraly

@NHSNewey Interestingly they do make a lot of money at crowdstrike/microsoft...
But not all of our modern components do as we know...

[Tom Stocker @TomStocker14]

Should CrowdStrike pay out damages? Who to?

Don’t forget what they have done. Partygate, the Covid contracts, the lies, the kickbacks.

The cronyism, the failure to invest, the division and scapegoating, the trips to the bookies, the Liz Truss mini-budget, the decimation of your public services.

Don’t forget any of it. 🧾

This is the Covid Memorial wall in London. It took me a full 10 minutes to walk its length in 2022.

Then, there were 197,635 Covid deaths.

Now, there are >230k. Boris Johnson’s unforgivable legacy.

Then, we had no power.

Now, finally, we do.

VOTE 👊

[Tom Stocker @TomStocker14]

Voter registration by age is increasingly scewed to older people, and there are a heck of a lot more older people tgan there used to be....

Fingers crossed....

@JKMVidimo @LetsDoDigitalCI @marcus_baw This was one of the key outcomes of our "policy hack" at rewired - we're building communities for digital folk to share skills and develop in the NHS as part of this.

But the ultimate focus is better approaches to then get better digital enablers for care teams.

Over 4 million kids - 30% of all UK children - now in poverty & still Labour won’t lift obscene 2-child benefit cap? Labour talks about 'hard choices' - but if this isn't a Labour priority, what is? Starmer says he won’t make unfunded pledges. So fund it https://t.co/Jl6brGzO07

@DanNeidle Can you do another graph that then includes other income sources? Has anyone done that? Av marginal tax by overall income / wealth?

[Simon Bottery @blimeysimon]

The @UKLabour manifesto shows the party is still shadowboxing on #socialcare policy, with only one major policy - a fair pay agreement - and no detail even for that. Worryingly, there is nothing here that commits a Labour govt to concrete measures in its first term. Short thread.

BREAKING: UK economy flatlined in April - with growth slowing to 0% - as signs of recovery from last year’s recession fade.

A blow to Rishi Sunak’s hopes of signalling strong bounceback before general election next month @phillipinman reports https://t.co/OGIVXOlSSZ
