My late daughter’s surgeon performed a double mastectomy, missed the tumour, hid his error and retired with an ‘impeccable career’. He outsmarted the GMC Rule 12 investigation, avoiding accountability. I am watching the medical register.

The BBC belongs to Britain, not Trump, Farage or their cheerleaders at GB News.

Keir Starmer needs to stand up to Trump and defend our BBC, to keep it strong and truly independent.

How deluded can a man be? Does Wes Streeting think he'd be more popular than Starmer? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I can think of a few who might be, just about. But Wes "privatise health care" Streeting? Umm no.

Farage is a GB news shareholder and is paid through a private company for his appearances on the channel.
So, here he is shit-stirring with Trump over the BBC and grifting his nasty little arse off…
There is really nothing of ours he won’t ruin to grab for power and wealth for himself.

In these times of rancour & division, it’s comforting to find things on which we can all agree: Kent County Council, for example, really does provide a perfect illustration of how well Reform would run the country. I agree with Nigel!

@kevmoore.bsky.social Good morning Kev. I have always thought this quote from “To Kill A Mockingbird” is fairly accurate, but it’s terrifying when applied to why people choose certain rogues as leaders. 🤦🏻‍♀️

And today it's the turn of The Times to try and patronise us all.

Every single day the right wing establishment tries to close ranks.

And every day we are growing.

Private companies operating care services in just three regions of England made £250m profits in 3 years,

£87.7m of profits went to care providers owned by private equity controlled from tax havens.

Profits mean money buys less. Higher taxes for less service.

Say NO to privatisation.

18,000 NHS admin staff, managers to be made redundant.

Treasury gives £1bn to cover redundancy cost, rest from the NHS budget.

Which NHS services will be cut or privatised? No assessment of social cost.

Part of the Streeting plan to appease corporations, become the next Labour leader.
Thousands of NHS staff to be made redundant after funding agreed
The government says the jobs will go in order to slash "unnecessary bureaucracy" and ensure taxpayers' money is being "spent wisely".

Robbie Gibb was appointed to the BBC Board by Boris Johnson, was an editorial advisor for GB News, and worked as Theresa May's Director of Comms.

He is not impartial or neutral. The government should remove him from the Board immediately to protect the BBC's independence.

Updated from just yesterday to include Reform's Leicestershire County Council 'savings'.....

'However here is where satire meets reality, they have now signed a contract worth up to £30mn in the hope of saving £90mn. Is this really what the voters were expecting?'

TRUMP complains that the BBC has done him ‘reputational harm’.
He’s worried about his reputation!
