@teamlabouruk.bsky.social are you sure you’re working on ambulance waiting times?! My nephew’s knee cap is in the side of his leg and he can’t move from where he’s led on a wooden floor. Been waiting over 3 hours and no sign of any help.

8 years ago I sent you this picture @rhodri.biz of the cold weather shelter we ran. It generated a few questions and then donations to help us run for an additional week (it was a very cold winter).

Word of the day is ‘librocubicularist’: one who loves nothing better than reading in bed.
(Not easy to say, but I’m glad to know it exists).

Reform MP James McMurdock was jailed for repeatedly kicking his girlfriend.
He had told the media he was jailed for "pushing" his former partner in 2006.
Court records obtained by The Times say the sentence was given because of "the serious nature of the offence”.

I see that a collection of MPs have taken it upon themselves to “launch” a private prosecution, in relation to a case which is still awaiting a CPS charging decision.
What might be the problems with this? 🧵

In a significant Intervention Bank of England governor said this week that Brexit has undermined the UK economy. @skynews.com.web.brid.gy didn’t think that was important enough to raise with the Government Minister this morning. I disagree. If you do too share this report
