"Most of my friends are already thinking of moving."
Yesterday, we published a report which showed how the UK government's immigration policies are negatively impacting internationally educated nursing (IEN) staff.
We spoke to members at #RCN25 about the importance of valuing IENs. Watch below ⬇️

There is no such thing as a moderate in the modern Liberal Party. "Moderate Liberal" is an oxymoron. Susssssan Ley has been just as hard-right, just as staunchly against anything considered even a little progressive, as Dutton has. To pretend otherwise is a misrepresentation.

My 2-year-old was in an ICE detention facility when she turned to me gravely and asked "Daddy, why am I being deported to Honduras?" And when I told her "Because due process is too woke," she started crying.

Renters are getting such a raw deal.
We need better nationwide protections - longer term tenancies, more rent stability.
These charts show how completely unsustainable things are on current setting and the anguish ppl feel.

Guys, I love all of you, but the answer to RFK, Jr. is not that autistic adults hold jobs, pay taxes, and get laid, it's that everyone deserves to live even if they can't work, pay taxes, or get laid.

Everything you see on The Pitt is real- bias in healthcare, violence against nurses and other staff, running a hospital like a business, PTSD for those of us who worked through the beginning of the pandemic, overcrowding of hospitals- and it's just a fraction of how fucked up things are.

Hey Liberals in our household I earn the most from a role in public health, and I make most of the financial decisions hence the reason I won't be voting for a party that wants to rip the guts out of public health and Medicare
Curious - have you received a letter addressed to the women of the house? Perhaps the Liberal Party doesn’t realise there is a voting cohort called women. In fact we make up 51% of the population. 👀

Trump's tariffs have cost the US nearly $30 trillion, this translates to an additional $300,000 per family of four.
That’s more damage than any economic policy pursued by any president in US history. He's bankrupting the country in real time.
