Good to see BMJ highlight this @thedauk.bsky.social been highlighting risks of #Palantir for over 4 years….why on earth did NHS England fork out £330M on a company with such a track record?🤷‍♂️👇👇👇 youtu.be/0erZPoOPcm4?...

Both my father and grandfather served in our armed forces on active service. It takes a team to make things work.

How dare Trump imply UK armed forces who served alongside the US forces in Afghanistan didn’t quite serve in the same way.
457 British troops lost their lives in Afghanistan.

Trump avoided military service 5 times.

How dare he question their sacrifice. Farage and all the others still fawning over Trump should be ashamed.

It’s so important to recognise and celebrate the contributions of fellow healthcare professionals.
This is why I have nominated my colleague, Samantha Thomas for her work on delay diagnosis of cancer claims at the forthcoming Black Heathcare awards.

Brexit was such a lie.

It’s actually made the U.K. poorer, more isolated, insular and less secure

And remember who led the drive that has made us more insecure - Farage alongside Johnson & Co.

The U.K. needs to accept its error and seek a closer union with Europe.

Carers are often the bedrock of our families and communities, unsung and sometimes unseen, striving for better care and advocacy, for those they care for, often at great personal cost.

#CarersDay
Today is Carers Rights Day. Across the country people are caring for each other and dealing with tough times.

This isn't just Ed’s story. It's the story of millions, and that's who the Liberal Democrats will continue to fight for.

🧐 Residents I met remarked they saw more of me than their own MP, who is missing in action locally.
✊ Nowhere should be a no-go area for the Liberal Democrats. We are the last line of defence against Reform’s division.

I’m voting for @joshbabarinde.bsky.social for party President.

I believe he has the enthusiasm and vision for what is needed.

Absolutely colossal night of success for the Lib Dems.

In the 10 byelections, the LDs have gained from the CONs, GRNs, INDs and LAB, with a narrow loss to REF by 31 votes in Babergh.

Scoreboard: LD 7, REF 1, CON 1, IND 1.

I assume the media will cover this as breathlessly as every opinion poll?

At #libdem conference and proposed an amendment to F8 policy that means that 111 calls made to the #NHS would never take longer than three minutes to get through.

The guarantee is an important reassurance, especially during times when demand for 111 is at its peak.

Today marks International #DemocracyDay.

Democracy matters - and it cannot be taken for granted.

Our voting system leaves swathes of people feeling powerless and fuels disillusionment, which can have dangerous consequences.

Change can't wait. We need #PRnow.

It’s appalling to see police officers come under attack at the Tommy Robinson rally. Those involved should be held accountable through the full force of the law.
