Knife crime is creeping into Middle England
Overall knife crime is down. But Huntingdon’s attack symbolises its commute from the cities to the suburbs and shires

Labour MPs speak up against the govt for treating vulnerable people as criminals.
Govt to 24/7 snoop on the bank accounts of all benefit claimants. Take money without court order, no right of appeal.
The same won't apply to tax dodgers, money launderers, scammers, other recipients of public money.

Must read. If you want to understand why Labour is so right wing it s useful to do a social network analysis. When you find out that names as Vance and Bannon show up so close to the centre of the party, something is profoundly wrong.

In England 48,830 A&E patients waited 24 hours or more for a hospital bed, 33,413 aged 65 or over.
Some went 10 days to get bed in a ward.
People deserve care and dignity.
Must expand NHS capacity. Privatisation won't. 30%-40% of money vanishes in profit, money buys less.
