If you’ve ever sat, frustrated, in front of a new consultant whilst they spend 15 minutes at their computer reading through your medical file or ended up in A&E, and they are wondering where to begin, then maybe something like this might help. My medical history on a page has proved very useful
@mrjamesob.bsky.social I think that'll you will find the error that #ReformUKPartyLtd made was that they gave the letter to their photocopier, #SuellaBraverman, who left the imprint off in error

@mrjamesob.bsky.social With the traitorous behaviour of #Mandelson & previously #BorisJohnson it is clear why some voters do not trust #UKLabour or #Conservatives. Unfortunately some blindly think that #ReformUKPartyLtd is a worthy alternative. A ltd co headed by an equally traitorous #Farage

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Trump is struggling for breath. He is in both physical & mental decline. Get that champagne on ice.
What will #Farridge do when his mate has gone. Who will he latch onto next. How many of the despised Republicans will find their backbone?
