"It’s as if nothing has been learned. Perhaps that’s not surprising. A freedom of information request to NHS England found that, of the tens of thousands of practitioners who would benefit from it, after a year, only 74 had completed the new learning module on ME/CFS guidance." ONLY 74! Shocking!

With great thanks to the hundreds of people who gave me their testimonies. If I hadn't said "stop" after a few hours, it might have been thousands. The sheer scale of this scandal is hard to get your head around. 2/2

Here's today's column on the astonishing, ongoing mistreatment of people with #ME/CFS. Please spread it far and wide: the only thing which can break the media's wall of indifference is seeing an article about the issue go viral. Thank you. 1/2 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Oh dear. So, despite Farage insisting they’ve done nothing wrong, the lovely Dan Jukes and James Orr have both stepped down… for now. Farage… they reported to you.. off you go. What a shitshow of guilty, corrupt, traitorous, greedy pisstakers. They must never ever get their hands on power.

Why isn’t there a total moratorium on all reporting on Reform until after the multiple investigations into their finances have been completed? Free propaganda for potentially corrupt liars should be banned. It might make them think twice before breaking rules and taking the piss out of all of us.

Lessons to be learned from the FE sector perhaps. Starved of funds since 2010 but now of course central to Burnham's plans for local democracy. "Second chance" often used by the likes of Gove et al to describe the sector says it all really.

The last few leaders were seriously flawed characters. At this point there’s nothing to stop Starmer going big. He has nothing to lose, at least he’d genuinely believe in what he’s doing and the country would be better off. Back in to the EU or as close as possible.

I would also note that Labour MPs were all happy to follow Starmer since the last GE and only recently, as polls declined, started to voice concerns. Where were their concerns about policy and party direction before?

Contrary to Labour MPs saying people ‘hate’ Starmer, I don't hate him and their scape-goating of him misses the point. It is Labour policies and Brexit red lines that are the problem and I see no leadership candidate, indeed no Labour MP addressing that.

Reform is a protest party. A protest against decency, integrity, kindness, expertise, and progress. It's a party of pettiness and hate, and it is made up of petty and hateful people from the grassroots to the very top. What it doesn't have is competence. So good luck with the bins and potholes.
