Question Time last night was pretty fierce. And had to be. There's a deliberate effort now to shift the ground: towards appeasement, inhumanity and authoritarianism. Once more, we must resist it. We must fight hard for kindness.

Joe Biden leaves several legacies, good and bad. But the most tangible and lasting is this.
It's the result of his disgraceful, enduring support for #genocide: the literal wiping of a people and their built environment off the map.
Whatever else he did, this will forever be attached to his name.

No one is talking about the costs we're all accepting by not reforming the social care system. Costs to:

➡️patients and their families
➡️the NHS
➡️local authorities
➡️the economy and the Treasury
