But this isn't a campaign leaflet from The Green Party. It's a Reform flyer filled with misleading information designed to confuse voters.

Only the slightest mention of Reform in the bottom paragraph.

I've sat on something for over 30 yrs because although it didn't feel right at the time there was nothing to say it didn't mask something else... until #Epstein Then @theguardian.com ran the images from Epstein's 50th birthday book. So, here was my first and last face to face with Peter Mandelson.
I was pregnant and my partner and I were looking for a place to rent. We found an ad in the local paper saying there would be an "open house" for flats in a large house in the centre of town.

We went along. It was in the evening which felt odd. When we arrived a man in a dark suit answered the door and instructed us to go into a room "with the others". In the room was a man, seated on a dining chair, he was also in a suit one leg crossed over the other, arms loosely folded on his lap. There were a couple of other men in suits standing around. It felt very "Mob" like. All of the other prospective tenants were young men. I was the only woman. 

The vibe was very off. I couldn't put my finger on it.

Once the men in suits were sure there were no others coming the man on the seat spoke. He talked about his properties and how he had strict criteria. My partner and I met the criteria, we both worked, we weren't teenagers, we didn't receive any state help, we had excellent references from our previous landlord.

The man asked anyone who didn't meet criteria to leave. A few people left. Once gone he then went round the room pointing at people and saying "stay" or "go". He pointed at us "go". I was slightly relieved. As much as we needed a new home I didn't like the Mob vibe. As we started to go I heard the man start to address the room. He was congratulating those left on being "suitable tenants" for his property. I looked back and realised that the room was filled with young attractive men, the eldest was maybe 23 and the look on the face of the man in the chair felt wrong. 

It was later that I realised the man in the chair was Peter Mandelson, the town's MP.

Absolute 🐂💩 statement from #WesStreeting about #NHSPay. Only Doctors and those Band 4 and above will see "real terms pay rise". @unison.org.uk has already called this out to it's members. @bylinetimes.bsky.social @theguardian.com
Press release from UK Gov.
NHS workers awarded real terms pay rises for second year in row
NHS workers, including doctors and nurses, will receive real terms pay rises after the Health Secretary accepted the Pay Review Bodies’ pay recommendations

From:
Department of Health and Social Care and The Rt Hon Wes Streeting MPFrom Unison to members 

The government has announced a 3.6% pay increase for NHS staff in England.
 
There have been no negotiations with unions and this is not an offer for members to accept or reject. This is an imposed pay award.
 
What do we know?
We do not yet know all the detail. We are working urgently to get clarity on exactly what this means, including when the pay rise and associated backpay will be in your pay packet. We think this is likely to be August, backdated to April 2025.
 
However, it looks like the government has stuck to its position that staff who received an interim pay rise in April 2025 – those in Band 2 and on the entry point of Band 3 – will not receive the full 3.6%. Instead, they will receive a smaller payment to bring the combined total of both pay awards to 3.6% This is unjust. That April payment was not an agreement with those staff – it was something the government had to do to avoid breaking minimum wage law.

You may also hear in the news today that many doctors have been awarded 4% plus £750, after their previous 2-year 22% settlement. We know this may feel unfair when the NHS can only succeed by working together as one team.

@bylinetimes.bsky.social @mikegalsworthy.bsky.social #NHSBank staff let go, #NHS 6 month recruitment freeze, People asked about taking out #Unemployment and #Healthcare Insurance, Money removed from rural schools. All in one week. Too much to write so images have the text.
As the press aren't covering it:

1. This week I completed feedback on the Government Disability paper where disabled people were asked if they would be willing to take out Unemployment Insurance. (Image below)

2. Yesterday YouGov asked about similar question about Healthcare Insurance. This is just days after NHS Trust's dismissed all of their Bank workers and implemented a 6 month  recruitment freeze. (Image below, NHS Bank email available on request).

3. I'm waiting to see what comes out from YouGov about education as this week a local school had £97k removed from their budget in a nationwide change.

At no point has this government suggested getting rid of or sliming down NI taxation or lowering taxation in general if Insurance is the way forward in both cases. Basically taking 2 bites of the cherry.

Byline TimesGovernment Disability paper feedback forms

Question 4

How could we introduce a new Unemployment Insurance, how long should it last for and what support should be provided during this time to support people to adjust to changes in their life and get back into work? YouGov Question 

Thinking about how the NHS is funded. Which of the following reflects your view?

1. Healthcare should be funded by general taxation from everyone.

2. Healthcare should be funded by
compulsory health insurance for
everyone, paid for from taxation
for the least well off, and
deducted from other people's
wages.

3. Healthcare should only be funded
by taxation for the least well off,
with other people choosing to
take out voluntary insurance if
they wished.

4. None of these.

5. I don't know. What National Insurance is
for


National Insurance contributions count
towards the benefits and pensions in the
table.
