Health secretary @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social says he has not ruled out a public inquiry into maternity failings. If there is to be a public inquiry I think its focus should be on the national policy, decisions, leadership and responses to local problems at NHSE/DHSC levels. What do you think?

At last Labour see reason! Lib Dems fought for Erasmus for Londoners but Labour blocked us. Mayor then put it in his manifesto but did nothing. Thankfully Govt have acted. The lesson? Keep the pressure on Labour to repair our relationship with the EU. Eventually they'll catch up!

In 2026, the UK state pension age will rise to 67 from 66, fully implemented by 2028.
Rich retire whenever they want. The poor die at work, receive low pension, have shorter life.
Low wages = low private pension. Neoliberals want to cut state pension, inflict more misery on millions.
