🚨 DLR cleaners are being denied basic company sick pay.
The current offer?
One week’s pay — but ONLY if you’re diagnosed with a terminal illness.
Please share if you think that's unfair.

All 4 Green MPs have made it clear that PFI is not welcome in our NHS. They've signed a parliamentary motion opposing any new NHS private finance.

Make sure your MP signs ahead of the Autumn Budget next week 👇

If I had only 6 letters to describe Britain, they would be NHS-BBC.

Both have been under sustained attack by politicians for over decade.

And I would be dishonest if I didn’t point out the BBC has played a major role in attacking our NHS.

Nevertheless, both are utterly essential to our democracy.

Asylum seekers, housed in hotels in Manchester, are reaching out in their own words to address the concerns of the local community.

Please take a minute to read their letter, & share it with the people in your life who need to hear the truth about the people they are protesting.

“The amendment opposing the Govt’s Welfare Bill has been tabled. I understand 80 MPs have signed and that doesn’t include any of the Socialist Campaign Group who are also opposed. So unless they come up with concessions the Govt would be heading for defeat next wk”

Nigel Farage got £750,000 from Coutts as compensation for nothing.

Even worse Coutts is owned by NatWest which is 39% owned by you.

So YOU paid Nigel Farage £292,750, for whining because he didn't have enough money for an account.

RT if he needs to repay every penny.

One of the things EveryDoctor is planning is a detailed database tracking MP responses to constituent concerns about the NHS. We’re fed up of politicians ignoring their constituents- they’ve been getting away with it for too long 🚨

Please help! 👇💙🚨🌟

UK Ministers have ‘maxed out’ health service funding, says NHS England boss.

Ridiculous. Forces people to go private. Household debt is worse than public debt.

Less well-off will suffer. Economic/Social cost?

If banks crash govts magically find money, but for healthcare?
