More evidence that the cause of the growing number getting disability benefits is that there are more disabled people not because more people are stuck in NHS waiting lists bit.ly/4iG4E1p the govt should be asking why are there more and how do we help them?

Longer NHS waiting lists ‘not to blame for benefits bill rise’
Delays in getting treatment are responsible for a ‘small fraction’ of the multibillion-pound increase, the Institute for Fiscal Studies says

Wes Streeting, "I'm not going to pretend that there are enormous challenges in the NHS today" "People struggling to get GP or dentist appointment" Stop hiring PAs, fix the GP contract, and hire the thousands of unemployed GPs

There is no such fucking thing as being “too woman” to pilot a helicopter, “too gay” to land a plane or “too black” to be an air traffic controller. There is however, such a thing as being too hateful, too stupid & too sociopathic to be president. And we call that Donald Trump.

In 2013 work was done to establish the future need for GPs At that time projections estimated the need for 36-44k GPs by 2025 In 2015 5000 more were promised by the incoming Tory Govt by 2019 they increased this to 6000 27500 the reality wasn’t even on the graph @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social

GP really is in crisis. Like, properly properly at the point of many thinking of just closing the doors & giving up. If you value your GP, you might want to ask your MP what they are doing about it…

If social media's stressing you out just now (me too) then here's a gentle antidote: pause for a few seconds & focus on the details in my photo👇-your brain's very likely to release dopamine,lifting your mood due to the bright colours & is ikely to relax in response to seeing these botanical patterns

Species/varieties include nicotiana, Russian lavender, marigold, nasturtium, viola, poppy seedhead, fennel, cosmos, Mexican fleabane, cornflower, borage, larkspur and sweet pea.

Why do wrong-doing benefit claimants need special rather than general punishments? Why not same for tax dodgers? And when someone has been caught doing cash-in-hand shifts do you really want to make it impossible for them to find a proper job & get off benefits? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Donald Trump. An Apology. The new Private Eye is out now
A photo of the front cover of issue 1641 of Private Eye magazine with the caption "ON SHELVES NOW!" The headline reads "DONALD TRUMP: AN APOLOGY." The cover features a mock statement claiming that, in contrast to past descriptions of Trump as "a sleazy, deranged, orange-faced man-baby," the magazine now recognises him as "a political colossus, the voice of sanity, a champion of liberty, and the saviour of the Western world." The parody humorously describes him as "slim, handsome, and young," concluding with a note that "this statement has not been fact-checked."

These stats are frankly bonkers. If anybody is complaining about why they are waiting to see a GP. They need to ask why successive governments have not supported the same growth in GP numbers as it has hospital medic numbers. Agree @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social or just going to sit & watch the end

Over 60 German universities have left platform X, citing its failure to uphold values of diversity, freedom, and scholarship. It’s vital to stop giving such platforms power; leaving hits their revenue stream, sending a clear message that inclusivity and accountability are non-negotiable.
