No Wes Streeting, the BMA is not acting like a cartel. It’s acting like a trade union. And frankly it’s disgusting to hear you talk like this while huge numbers of doctors can’t get NHS jobs because you haven’t created them, while millions of patients are on waiting lists🚨🚨🚨
Pinned tweet to honour the junior doctors coming out on strike today.

GB News’ recent Trump interview was outrageous - completely biased and full of lies. And GB News didn't challenge him ONCE. Ofcom MUST investigate them for breaching its rules. Sign now if you agree. act.38degrees.org.uk/act/gb-news-...

I knew a Star Wars purist would come out of the woodwork on that one! You just chose that one iconic closing shot that the whole world recognises. Chill Jedi-verse, here's a uniquely ROTJ shot. RIP Carrie Fisher.

I basically took an image of each to illustrate that movie. I really don’t spend that much time choosing, so long as it is a clear image for people to easily see.
I apologise if you feel this particular image/representation is a poor choice for that particular movie.

As the Epstein Island tapes are dropping and powerful people are sweating. That place was nicknamed “Orgy Island” and is why they tried to bury it. It also retraumatizes women who were just girls when this happened.

AOC: This is how our healthcare system got deregulated. People talking about Americans should have the personal choice of getting totally fleeced by insurance companies.

The boats the regime is claiming are going from Venezuela to the US would need to refuel over 20 times to get to Miami.
They are lying to us.

This timing makes a lot more sense now, doesn’t it?
Adm. Alvin Holsey resigned in October as commander of U.S. Southern Command right after flagging concerns about those U.S. military strikes on “suspected” drug boats in the Caribbean.
He served for 37 years.

This tweet and the Farage video in it about "the cultural smashing of Glasgow" is getting rightly roasted by the good people of Glasgow on the other place...

There are many questions about the admin's strikes on alleged drug boats. But one thing is clear: "Any order to 'kill everybody' ... would be a black-and-white violation of military law," @mawaldman.bsky.social says.

Brazil’s former Dictator Bolsonaro will begin serving his 27 year prison sentence for plotting a coup in his country.
If only Merrick Garland had gotten the job done when we had the chance and sent the orange felon and his insurrectionists to jail where they belong. Scumbag.

They will willingly and happily throw anyone under the bus to save themselves. This admiral needs to speak out but they probably already forced him to sign a NDA. Probably threatening him and his family to take whatever happens and roll with it even if it’s a prison term.
