"...making connections w/ one another really does matter. Indeed, it is the antidote to the vitriol of the selfish mind. Each & every time we connect w/ one another we are defeating those who see no value in being human."

It is not the State that has too much power
It is that the positions meant to execute the power of the State have grown beyond their intent
Leaders are public servants, not omnipotent citizens free to do whatever they want
It’s time we drafted new laws to enforce better behaviour from our leaders

To be absolutely clear, I will not vote for Labour if they continue to support Israel’s genocide of the Palestinians.
I won’t be voting tactically
I don’t care who that lets into power
I’m not voting for a Party that can permit the wilful starvation of innocent people.

The only viable solution to these dangerous NHS waits is to put bed capacity back to what it was in 2010.
If you shrink your health service as demands for it increases then it is not surprising people have to wait longer.
It’s not rocket science.

Tens of thousands waited more than 24 hours for hospital beds in A&E last year
Patients in England aged 65 or over made up almost 70% of long ‘trolley waits’, with some left for up to 10 days, data reveals

In economics, as in geopolitics, Trump fundamentally misunderstands the limits of American power. It is at the centre of everything he does. The markets, the only real impediment to him now, may be about to teach him how wrong he is.

Again and again, Trump misunderstands the limits of American power.
And as a result is taking us to a global financial precipice.

If one person in one country can make one economic decision that leads to global turmoil then we have fundamental problem with the economic system itself.

🚨UPDATE: Rümeysa Öztürk has now suffered three separate asthma attacks while in DHS custody.
She has not received her required asthma medications—a violation of her fundamental right to medical care.
This is cruelty, it is neglect, and it is a damning moral and legal failure.

Labour’s vision for the NHS is getting grim
As Labour tries to please both private and public interests, its policies for the NHS are in danger of costing a lot and achieving little

There's quite a list, but @dangoyal.bsky.social makes a good point.
If someone can't be restrained from making civilians, hospitals, children the target of violence, or the weaponization of mass starvation and disease, that's someone who belongs in a cage.

While job losses are harsh, both the NHS CEO and the Chair did next to nothing as the Conservatives gutted the NHS. NHS Leadership is woefully inadequate. Time will tell if this is a power grab for Streeting or a much needed shake up. I suspect the latter

Hard to get a fresh take on our Elo Anxiety these days but Dan manages it in this fascinating substack.
I still maintain Musk once had a sled called Rosebud but that probably relates more to
my 'Orson Welles/ Awesome Wells' line that I lacked the gifts to more fully realise on GE24 leaflets!
