Almost £1bn in NHS funds has been paid to private healthcare companies over 3 years. Healthcare funding belongs on the frontlines, not in private equity pockets. Send our letter to tell your MP to push for real change: everydoctor.eaction.org.uk/stop-private...

This tragedy happened over nine years ago. It's hard to avoid the question... If this hadn't been poor people in a wealthy area, would it really have taken a decade to bring anyone deemed responsible to account for their actions or inactions? share.google/2yfjFryZmqOE...

Today Massive Attack frontman Robert Del Naja was arrested under the Terrorism Act, for holding up a placard outside of the Labour party conference in Liverpool. He could face up to 14 years in prison. Nice to see a British musician not remaining 'neutral' on a genocide! 😻

Farage hates people in the UK not speaking English (Except of course his German ex-wife & sons, and French girlfriend) Perhaps because bilingual children tend to have higher IQs? "Nigel Farage isn’t happy that Glasgow kids speak more than one language ..." www.thepoke.com/2025/12/04/n...

Nigel Farage isn’t happy that Glasgow kids speak more than one language and ended up schooled into next year
Nigel Farage wants people in Scotland to speak English. Specifically he wants kids growing up in Glasgow to speak English, because one in three of them currently do not have it as their first language...

Patient data from five GP surgeries in England is being fed into the NHS’s Palantir-built data platform, pushing the US firm’s reach beyond its initial remit of hospital operations into local surgeries. An internal NHS note seen by the FT called it a “significant milestone”. 🤔
