People still claim Labour do nothing to help our armed forces & veterans.

To mark the launch of the government's new Veterans Strategy, here is veterans minister Louise Sandher-Jones telling you what it is all about & how it's a joined up approach to helping veterans.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen the left so unified on an internal Democratic Party issue. Like every single elected leader from Kathy Hochul, Gavin Newsom and Pete Buttigieg, to Bernie Sanders and AOC, to the rank-and-file left writ large. These senators are essentially pariahs.

In the last 72 hours or so Donald Trump has:

• Demanded a $230 million payout from his own Department of Justice
Also the federal government is still shut down, but, y’know…

Sickness knows no political party. Everybody needs to be able to see a doctor when they’re sick. It’s that simple. And that important.
Sanders: Let’s be clear… If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are going to see at least a doubling in their premiums… if resolution is passed tonight, we are on a path way to throw 15 million Americans off of medicaid and the affordable care act, 15 million.

The fact that the BBC has made serious culpable errors does not negate the point that there is a real and concerted right-wing media campaign to destroy it. Both points can be true at the same time and the campaign would not end even if the errors did.
