I see campaigners as the back stop against the bad stuff, and it can be pretty tiring being the back stop. Please lend your shares or your support or your donation or whatever you can - because politicians *must* be held to account.

A friend’s son has his first flight as a fully qualified commercial pilot today! He’s shot up a lot since the last time I saw him. Although heroin does calm the nerves.

Not only did Brexit not provide any extra money for the NHS - as liar-in-chief Boris Johnson promised - but Brexit is impoverishing the UK each year by an amount of money not far off the annual NHS budget.

Thanks Farage.

I have no sympathy for landlords. They have contributed to the housing crisis.

Today, Labour is going to announce a return to PFI for the NHS- which is a total disaster. But they’ve renamed it the “NHS neighbourhood rebuild”. Don’t be fooled 🚨

There are three things Rachel Reeves should bear in mind tomorrow: obscene wealth doesn't 'trickle down', tax cuts don't 'pay for themselves' and the private sector isn't 'more efficient'

Up to 7m extra working-age people could be denied minimum standard of living in retirement if UK state pension triple lock is ditched.

Neoliberals squeeze wages and call for real cuts to pension.

Thousands will die prematurely.

Remember how we kept getting told that a European Army was a REALLY BAD idea?
It's January 31st, 2020, and Nathan Gill is celebrating our imminent departure from the EU.... and that terrible idea of a European Army.

Hmm, now I wonder who else would have been delighted about that.

I’m not a great political analyst, but I do feel Labour have made a tactical error by opting to be cunts.

PFI - you’ve probably heard the term, but what do they really mean for the NHS? 💷

Answer: more debt, less public money for staff & patients. And now PPPs could make it worse. Get the facts 👇
