Retired NHS nurse, now enjoying countryside walks with my dogs, finding new hobbies whilst recovering from burn out, happier and more content with life.
@meiselasb.bsky.social Janey Godley passed away last November but what she had to say was right.
I don't see why the UK should pay for epstiens mate to play golf at his tacky golf clubs
That orange balloon will be back here again in September for a state visit

People are starting to call him Vice President Donald Trump. This will not sit well with him, and I therefore encourage everyone to do the same.

Nick Ferrari has said he will get only £56 per month from his State Pension.
This means he has only paid NI for about 2 years of his working life.
Why are the rich allowed to dodge as much tax as they like?

My jaw hit the floor when I heard about Gaie Delap's case. A 77-year old peaceful climate protester threatened with being returned to jail...because they can't find a tag small enough for her wrists.
As her MP, I have written to the prisons minister Lord Timpson.

Privatisation is a failure
Royal Mail
Only 76% of 1st-class mail delivered in time, down from 79%.
93% of 2nd-class post on time, down from 94%.
1st class stamp £1.65; 2nd class 85p
When privatised in 2013: 1st class 60p; 2nd class 50p
Privatisation = Higher price, worse service.

Czech Billionaire Daniel Křetínský is taking over Royal Mail for £3.5bn.
His first step is to halve mail deliveries which will save £300m by getting rid of staff.
Prices will go up, employee's down, services down.
And every penny in profit goes to his tax haven accounts.

King Charles inherited £650m tax free, gets £125m a year tax free from the tax payer and has an estate worth £22bn that’s never taxed.
But he still needed a 45% pay rise.
Like if he needs a pay cut.
RP if you want the Monarchy gone.

Instead of the govt going after the farmers for inheritance tax, why doesn't the govt change the law and go after the royal family who don't pay inheritance, corporation or capital gains tax #inheritancetax #farmers

How short our memories are - Randox cashed in on the pandemic (& the lobbying scandal around them helped bring down Johnson’s government).
Now they’re flogging PSA (prostate) screening tests hard, on the back of celeb BBC interviews. Are we gonna fall for it?
