Everyone should be fighting for Universal Healthcare and disability rights. Health is fragile. You can become disabled or chronically ill in an instant. It’s not a moral failing. It can wipe out your savings and leave you destitute. Healthcare is a basic human right.

An example of how the NHS is already privatised and why it always leads to worse service. If I was this irresponsible in my job, I would be rightly fired. I hate this culture of not penalising or cancelling contracts with 3rd party suppliers when they are routinely unperforming.

Here’s an idea. Buy some RNLI Christmas cards. And then send them to Reform: Reform UK Freepost RTLT-ZXHY-KSDC 83 Victoria Street London SW1H OHW (They pay for every Freepost item received).

Every purchase of our charity Christmas cards from the RNLI makes a lifesaving difference. The profits will help to prevent tragedies at sea for years to come.

I'm feeling more than a little uncomfortable that The World at One has just given a very long slot to a Restore Britain supporter who wants migrant boats to be pushed back at sea & who said that he doesn't care if the consequence is that people drown. A BBC platform for someone like that? Really?

Covid lockdowns demonstrated, in a deeply imperfect way, the possibility of large-scale social solidarity for a higher cause. That is a prime reason why so many powerful people want us to run screaming away from them into the comforting arms of selfish individualist competition.

UCU are not affiliated to the Labour Party (and therefore does not attend women’s conference) but if we were then we would be supporting this stance by our brilliant sister unions. Solidarity to them and the whole trans and non binary community.

EXCLUSIVE: Powerful Labour unions will boycott the party's women's conference this year in protest at the ban on trans women.

Unison, Aslef, Usdaw and the Musicians Union will not attend Labour Women's Conference in September over the exclusion of trans women from formal business at the event.

The unions are among Labour's largest financial backers and say the all-women event in Liverpool breaches their policies on trans inclusion.

This is why PIP is not means tested and you can get it while you work. Because it's supposed to help you do things, like work. If you need to travel to a specialist hospital, 300 miles away, for example, you have to pay for the train and for a PA/companion also to travel. Extra costs of disability.

So strip away the performative "pure cold rage" and you'll find: It was never really about victims. Or women and girls. Or public safety. Because the crime can be the same. The horror can be the same. The only variable that changes is race. And that tells you what they actually care about. 3/3

He doesn’t care about Henry Nowak. He didn’t care about Sarah Everard. He cares about the headline. The fresh wound he can pick at until it bleeds votes. Not leadership. Not justice. Not grief. Just the same old grift. He's a charlatan. A fraud. A conman. He's a revolting opportunist.

A political comparison graphic split into red and blue halves, titled vertically “HYPOCRISY?”

Left side: “March 2021 - Sarah Everard Murder” with a small photo of Nigel Farage and the quote: “We must not allow the tragic murder of a young woman turn into attacks on men and attacks on the police.” Source: Nigel Farage, 14 March 2021.

Right side: “June 2026 - Henry Nowak Murder” with a photo of Farage speaking at a podium and the quote: “I suggest the rest of us respond to this with pure cold rage.” Caption below says this was responding to police handcuffing dying stabbed student Henry Nowak.

Bottom text reads: “Same Leader. Different Victims. When it fits the narrative → Pure Cold Rage. When it doesn’t → Don’t attack the police.”
