So sad that it has come to this terrible situation.
To say that I'm sorry that's what the NHS teams are going through, seems a bit lame. But very grateful to you all. 🙏❤️
A critical incident is declared when services become so overwhelmed they struggle to deliver critical services, risking patient safety. The service needs additional staff & support from other agencies to continue to operate.
Here is the full list of NHS hospitals declaring a critical incident. 👇

An image of Mothin was included in a viciously Islamophobic video posted by Tommy Robinson & vastly amplified by Elon Musk.

These attacks are unhinged, libellous & extremely dangerous. Mothin has worked tirelessly for the good of his entire community & is a credit to the @greenparty.org.uk.
On a day when the likes of Musk and Robinson decided to spread divisiveness across the country, scapegoating Muslims, the Green Team were out in our little patch of the world, trying to create unity and actually solve some of the issues facing our communities.

When will governments learn what causes inflation?
Higher interest rates are not the solution. This makes the poorest in society do the heaviest lifting.
UK inflation (CPI) rate has crept to 2.6%.

Govts respond by forcing impoverished people to hand wealth to banks, enriching bankers & their shareholders.

Real cause of inflation is profiteering.

Govts need curb profiteering, tax the rich as they have excessive cash.

In the USA the richest country on earth they have convinced people that medical care is so expensive that everybody can't have it.

While in China a poorer country with far more people, medical care is available to all.

The British left been in retreat ever since the high water mark of 2017, but how bad is it actually?
How cooked is the British left?
In 2017 the British left almost won power for the first time in generations. Since then it's been routed at every turn.

NHS funding per patient is now more than 6% lower than in 2010.

The NHS does not have 'more money than ever' as is constantly repeated.

This is a lie, RP so everyone knows.

I don't think so! Prices to rise to protect dividends.

Not that old troupe again to spread fear and loathing on behalf of antiquated financial sector. Does anyone think this argument holds any relevance in this day and age?

Tenant farmers should have public support not individuals who have millions in assets.
Govt announced £2.4bn for farming for 2024/5 in Oct budget.

Govt subsidised a v profitable energy utility industry with £9.1bn - “the money was cleverly dispensed via the public in the form of the £400 winter fuel allowance”

King Charles inherited £650m tax free, gets £125m a year tax free from the tax payer and has an estate worth £22bn that’s never taxed.

But he still needed a 45% pay rise.

Like if he needs a pay cut.
RP if you want the Monarchy gone.
