@glastonbury the link sent via email to edit my registration details takes me back to the page to retrieve my registration details, taking me round and round in a loop! I need to update my postcode, can you help please?
Hardly anyone knows about this. If you’ve lost your ID you can still vote by applying for an emergency proxy until 5pm on polling day. Don’t lose your chance to vote the Tories out.
I find it very hard to separate the refusal to consider the pay demands of working doctors and nurses from the scandalous enthusiasm with which huge sums of money were given to Tory cronies and donors for PPE they had no track record of supplying.
Comical in hindsight that Johnson makes such a big song and dance about distancing when there were literally people snogging at parties in the building behind him.
Here's a little look at German cost of living vs British cost of living, which goes a long way to explain why British people are suffering- despite the UK being ome of the richest countries in the world

@tomhfh Complete guff. I am an office based nurse who worked thoughout Covid, and we had leaving parties and birthday parties on Zoom. We knew the rules applied to us, that’s the difference
Nurses work 12hr shifts; sell their days off; use food banks; pay £1300 a year to park. And 40,000 have left their jobs in a year.
Tory MPs sit for 150 days; get subsidised food; claim travel & energy on expenses; get free parking & £2,200 pay rises.
Back the nurses please.
I made Lee Anderson Deputy Chairman because he represents the integrity and professionalism that I value so much. Like that time he lied to a journalist and got his mate to pretend he didn't know him.
Please don’t share. #Reshuffle
"If nurses aren't happy, they can leave."
That's exactly the problem. 1 in 9 nurses left the NHS in 2021. Many go abroad or retrain in other fields. Only 21% of nurses say there are enough staff to do their jobs properly. Unsafe staffing levels harm us all. Pay them their worth.
In a Telegraph interview @Keir_Starmer just dismissed GP triage of patients’ presentations as “bureaucratic nonsense”, suggesting we all self-refer to specialists if we notice an issue.
This is so monumentally stupid (& insulting) on multiple levels I hardly know where to begin.
£37bn for a private sector Test and Trace programme that made "no measurable difference" to the pandemic.
£12.5bn for private hospitals to "stand by" ... and do nothing.
£10bn in overpayments for PPE.
And the government tells us there's no more money for the NHS.
Harrowing words from a senior emergency medicine doctor showing the despair at not being able to provide the level of care every doctor hopes to for their patients. Every doctor, nurse & HCW can empathise with this right now.
Shared w/ permission. Pls RT to get this out there.
Just the health secretary openly asserting that a newly qualified nurse earns over £31k. But that’s a lie. The Band 5 starting salary is £27,055.
Ironically, a 15% pay rise *would* take that salary to over £31k.
More pertinently though, where is your probity @SteveBarclay?
