This government promised us 'the biggest wave of insourcing of public services in a generation' 🌊
Have you seen it?! We definitely haven't. 🧐
BUT now that the government are planning changes to the Procurement Act, we've got a chance to put the pressure on. 💪

As the earthquake death toll rises, @dvbenglish.bsky.social release another update on attacks by Junta forces on contested/resistance areas.
20 attacks by Junta forces have now been confirmed (likely an underestimate due to communications challenges) across Myanmar.
So messed up.

In case you didn’t get this straight, Trump stopped all aid including what was in transit, even as close as Poland.
A lot of it is air defence missiles. Civilians are going to die because there won’t be anything to protect us with. From marauders to murderers.
