Spent part of today at Kidderminster's carpet museum - first time I've visited despite it opening in 2012. Surprised at just how good it was. Brilliantly done. Hopefully it can avoid closure

The UK was declared measles free in 2017.

Vaccine programs completely eliminated it.

Since then, pro sickness conspiracy theorists and anti science idiots have enabled its return.
“Seven schools and a nursery have reported more than 60 suspected cases of measles in an area of north London, and labs have confirmed 34 cases since January 12. Some children have been treated in hospital.”

🤔You want your government to be popular?

💡Why not try doing something that's popular with the public.

Most of us want to see public ownership across a range of public services.

It was true at the last general election. It's true now.

Wes Streeting released his whatsapp messages with Mandelson

We've written to him asking him to also release messages with private health donors (who benefit from NHS privatisation)

@goodlawproject.bsky.social found he is 60%+ funded by private healthcare

Open letter to Wes Streeting: release your messages with your private healthcare donors
The public has a right to know that health policy is not driven by quid pro quo relationships.

The Dublin Agreement was a huge deterrent. People knew if they arrived in UK & had claimed elsewhere, approved or denied, they would immediately be returned. Now that data sharing is no longer an automatic right. The UK lost access to several shared mechanisms when it left the EU
