The Government’s own shocking data shows a staggering 97% of new patients who try to get an NHS appointment now fail to get one.

People are forced to pull out their own teeth with pliers - it’s not Victorian it’s medieval. We cannot allow this to become normalized

Losing NOAA would be devastating. Project 2025 authors want to get rid of it because it monitors climate change, and privatize the information it currently provides for free, so you'll have to buy information about the weather and the winds (imperative for mariners).

"Days before Donald Trump’s inauguration... an article appeared in the US magazine The Atlantic: ‘How Hitler Dismantled a Democracy in 53 Days’.

Trump’s name doesn’t appear at all in the piece by Timothy Ryback, a historian and an authority on 1930s Germany. But joining the dots is not difficult."
Trump: following in Hitler’s footsteps?
As Trump begins his second term with the far right on the march across America, is history about to repeat itself in more ways than one?
